HEY NOOBS! Want a band or song recommendation? Don't start a new thread-POST HERE!

Wildcat78 · 11-14-2008, 09:21 AM

Hey all, I'm trying to compile a list of songs of a certain sound and feel. The upbeat hits of the 50s, and 60s. I'm personally enamored with the innocence and energy of post-war America and the music of the time; a simpler time when popular music didn't need to be diluted with personal or political agenda. A group of like-minded friends and I are compiling this list in order to take these songs and try to breath a little life back into them; throw a more modern, but still purely energetically joyful spin on them. Some of my personal favorites from the list we already have go as follows:

The Foundations-Build Me Up Buttercup
Ben E. King-Stand By Me
The Contours-Do You Love Me?
The Chordettes-Lollipop
The Penguins-Earth Angel
Four Aces-Mr. Sandman

We're looking for songs in the same vein as the ones listed above. So without further adieu let fly with your additions to the list.

Pharoah Monch, though he's on the brink of hip-hop as well.

Hey I think I am going to buy a Joy Division album and I like 'She's Lost Control' and 'Shadowplay' from Unknown Pleasures but a teacher from school (who is a science teacher that listens to a lot of music, he's awesome) said Closer was better.

Eh? I heard those are like the only 2 real albums because Curtis hung himself...so?
