You mean songs?Originally posted by rainee:List the oldies you like over here
I like Elvis Presley's 'Can't help falling in love', 'More than words' and 'Seasons in the sun' by Westlife. It's nice to hear remake versions of songs cos it lets the younger generation know what their parents listened to, and how music has evolved. Hope they do that more often. -
lol I prefer the original version...Originally posted by ^spidee^:You mean songs?

Icic.. I only came to know Teresa Teng's songs when she passed away in 1995? There was a TV show dedicated to her, think it was a singing competition.Originally posted by rainee:lol I prefer the original version...

The Boxer
I am just a poor boy.
Though my story's seldom told,
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles,
Such are ppromises
All lies and jest
Still, a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest.
When I left my home
And my family,
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station,
Running scared,
Laying low,
Seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go,
Looking for the places
Only they would know.
CHORUS
Lie-la-lie.....
Asking only workman's wages
I come looking for a job,
But I get no offers.
Just a come-on from the whores
On Seventh Avenue
I do declare,
There were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there.
CHORUS
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
And wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the New York City winters
Aren't bleeding me,
Leading me,
Going home.
In the clearing stands a boxer,
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that laid him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame,
"I am leaving, I am leaving."
But the fighter still remains
CHORUS -
ooh...never heard of that song before...who is the singer?
-
Fly me to the moon - Bart Howard
Its a wonderful world - Louis Armstrong
I like A kiss to build a dream on by Louis Armstrong as well -
