What happened to the Songs from your Era thread?

[eddie]

So sick of this song now , better half turned 64 a few days back and hearing this song once or twice was nice but now people ringing up and singing it for the last few days ugggggh, it's wearing thin lol

The Beatles - When I'm Sixty Four

I'm half a dozen years off, but have thought about that song when it becomes more relevant........................good track though.

Lol, same age as me Eddie. I need to get through that other depressing number before the 64th.

[Andrew Walker]

Love the passion and the facial expressions Linda Perry has in this song

In My Dreams - 4 Non Blondes

[horrie hastings]

I'm only about 2.5 years off it and watch it come quicker than not, have already past that other depressing number that mightyrooster mentioned.
I have always had the mindset that it is a privilege to get to this stage of life but looking around at good friends who are around 8-15 years older than me and seeing what some of them are starting to go through, mentally, physically and medically has me second guessing that sentiment now.
Just enjoy life Eddie, try and stay active and make the most of everyday.

Had a real mix up of songs at work yesterday with songs from the 1960's till up to current but a few that hadn't played for a long while stuck in my mind

First was the simple simplicity of early ABBA

Abba - Honey, Honey

[horrie hastings]

Another was from Bobby Sherman who was a teenage heart throb idol back in the 70 s


Bobby Sherman- "Easy Come Easy Go

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GH5wYoT2HZU

[horrie hastings]

and the third was a Beatles classic

The Beatles - Let It Be

Yes, MR was referring to the dreaded 60

Thanks for the advice, after all my battles I try to enjoy the little things. Staying active is not always as easy as it sounds, and supporting the Roosters can be very stessful.
Will anyone still need me when I'm 64?

Yes supporting the Roosters can be very stressful, by staying active just even keeping your mind active is a very helpful thing, i'm by no means lazy but i am not the most physically active person ( i get plenty of physical activity at work ) but i try and keep my mind active most of the time, i have been looking at my father who just gone into age care and seeing how scrambled his mind is now i think keeping mentally active is very important.

Couldn’t agree more Horrie. I’ve been learning piano for the past 6 months and it’s great for keeping my brain focused and sharp. It helps that music is a passion of mine also.

Oh Eddie. Look at Supporting the Roosters as a joy not stressful. I’m sure at the very least your Daughter and Grandchildren will need you when you are 64

Now a polite reminder to all This is The songs from your era thread Not a general chit chat thread ( we did have one of those a few years back but it inexplicably disappeared ) and as keen as we all are too see this thread hit 600 pages Let’s not clog it up with general chit chat and play some music I’m in the pub now and a song by Rihanna has just come on that’s appropriate for my little inconsequential rant

Oh I remember that chit chat thread. Whatever happened to it? In my defence I was chit chatting about music.

Yes we were chit chatting about what that song means When I'm 64 so we haven't strayed from the theme.

[eddie]

Sorry Eddie.

That is cool.
I guess we're all growing old together.
So, talking of old............................here's a very old song.
