I'm a pre charter too, but I remember most of the 50's music on the list. There were some great songs then.Nat King Cole, Perry Como, Hoagy Carmichael, Doris Day.. great singers all.
Smile, it confuses people.

What a great thread, Debs.   ;D  Mine is 'When' by the Kalin Twins which I've always liked.  I missed 'All I have to do is Dream' and 'Stupid Cupid' by a couple of weeks either side. 




I think Georgie and I are very close in age.  ;D Mine was the Everly Brothers "All You Have To Do Is Dream"  ::)

Georgie I wouldn't be surprised if we were twins  ;D. Over the years I've had siblings popping out of the woodwork all over the World. It can be quite a shock I can tell you, when they (at different times) Phone or write saying .."Hi, I'm your sister/brother you might not know existed".  :o
I've had it happen FOUR TIMES.
Sister in England
Sister in Canada
Sister In Scotland
Brother in Canada.  All surprised me over the years.
I already knew about three sister and one brother.
So welcome to the family  ;D
