Bring Back Those Sad Songs

Bring back those sad songs,
like "Teen Angel"  "Patches"
"Honey"  "Ebony Eyes"
today what do we hear?

Loud noise, rap and more loud noise,
music today does nothing for love,
you really can't even sing to this
so called music.

So bring back those good old
songs of long ago, and lets get
down and do our thing, or
what ever these young kids
call it now days.

Don't forget "The Wayward Wind" and "Return to Me" Booby Vinton's "Mr. Lonely" , Conway's "It's Only Make Believe" , Music just doesn't cut it these days. Vince

I remember my dad having a fit about my music and today I sometimes feel like throwing a fit when I hear what they call music. Can't wait to see my daughter throwing a fit when she tries to listen to her children's music one day, lol. Good one. regards Heidie
