So many of us have been touched by music, lyrics, and the artist who wrote and performed them. But I bet there are few people who have such variety in their musical preferences as you. Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the contest.

Music brings back memories of our lives. Both good and bad. Those songs have played many times in my life. My favorite selection is jazz. I inherited that from my dad. Good Luck.

Comment from Bill Schott
I recall all of those great songs and have trouble seeing how they would stick with you and remind you of all those big moves in your life. I think I too can recall what steps I was taking in life when those songs came around. Great job with this challenge.

Great memorable moments and great music. When I grew up Elvis became the best around. And he still lives on in our hearts today. Many of impersonators do sound like him. You grew up in the 70's. Country was and still is a wonderful sound of music. Enjoyed your posting.

No essay about music can be too long. I only wish I had the time to go to YouTube and pull up every title you mentioned because they are all familiar and I can draw a direct connection between each of them and something going on in my life at the time they were hits! Amazingly, Stevie Wonder is still blowing me away. (Did you catch him at the Grammy's?)
Lots of pleasant memories here...and I'll be humming a lot of these tunes al night long!

I didn't know a lot of the songs mentioned but the titles themselves fit right into that particular season of your life and what you were going through at the time. That fits the theme of the "soundtracks of your life" perfectly! Best wishes in the contest!

You did a great job writing this piece. I enjoyed all the singers you mentioned. The 70's went by in a blur to me. I was trying to raise two kids, work, and go to college. Good luck in the contest. Shirley

I enjoyed reading about the soundtrack to your life. It's amazing how we associate certain songs with certain events in our lives. You did a great job recalling this. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Comment from Wayne Fowler
Well written. Good work.
I fully understand what you are saying, although being several years ahead of you, the 60s music were my touchstones. When I went overseas in the military I returned to country (homesick, prob'ly). Then rock got crazy and not long after, country went rock.
Good thing for SIRIUSXM! I can listen to 50s, 60s rock and classic country!
Best wishes.

Whoa! Whoever you are, your post brought with it a flood, a virtual flood, of memories! One thing about your writing style and your subject that resonates, I'm sure, with all its readers is its ability to pull the reader along in the wake of your musical memories, allowing each of us to push pause for long enough to slide in a memory or two of our own before we jump back on your ship of songs. Well-done, my anonymous friend! I hope you do well in the contest.
