Angel Baby - Rosie & The Originals

Songwriters: Rose Hamlin

It's just like heaven Being here with you You're like an angel Too good to be true

But after all I love you i do

Angel baby My angel baby

When you are near me My heart skips a beat I can hardly stand on My own two feet

Because i love you I love you i do

Chorus: Angel baby my angel baby Ooh ooh i love you Ooh ooh i do No one can love you Like i do Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Please never leave me Blue and alone If you ever go Im sure you'll come back home

Because i love you I love you i do

Jimmy Durante - Young At Heart 1954

Songwriters: Carolyn Leigh, Johnny Richards Fairy tales can come true – It can happen to you If you’re young at heart. For it’s hard, you will find, To be narrow of mind If you’re young at heart. You can go to extremes With impossible schemes; You can laugh when your dreams Fall apart at the seams; And life becomes exciting with each passing day, And love is either in your heart… or on its way. Don’t you know that it’s worth Every treasure on earth To be young at heart? For, as rich as you are, It’s much better by far To be young at heart. And, if you should survive To a hundred and five, Look at all you’ll derive Just by being alive! Now, here is the best part: You have a head start If you are amongst the very young… At heart.

And, if you should survive To a hundred and five, Look at all you’ll derive Just by being alive! Now, here is the best part: You have a head start If you are amongst the very young… At heart.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, fatima, for today's Tell Us Your Favorite "Oldies" Song.

[Revolting cat!]

Well, at least in that one they sing “Unchained”, but where is the version where they sing both “Unchained” AND “Melody”?!

[RW_Whacko]

“The Way you Look Tonight” The Lettermen

[Shery]

For some reason, mine didn’t post. Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers is my all-time favorite, then Kokomo, by the Beach Boys.

[a fool in paradise]

How old are we talking? Classic rock station now plays 80s and almost 90s!

[SkyDancer]

The Platters - “My Prayer” ~ .... my dad got this old jukebox loaded with old 45’s ... lots of stuff from the 50’s and 60’s ... we’ll be spending the Holiday season cleaning and recording them to CD’s. ... Wow, some Crash Cradock and Beatles tunes I’ve never heard before. Then too, some Elvis like “Just Pretend” that brought tears to my eyes.

[Venturer]

Sleepwalk. Great instrumental.

I’ll contribute one more to your thread - a two-parter!

First, he’s the lovely and oh-so-talented Marilyn McCoo with the Fifth Dimension in 1969 doing a great song, “Wedding Bell Blues”:

And HERE is the same happy couple who not only got married, but have stayed married for 45 years!

What a beautiful lady, and two fantastic talents who can come along and perform just as well four decades later!
