Times Of Great Pop Music.

Goldfinch60



In our cars we drive along,

Music playing from the radio,

Playing music from Boom Radio.

What’s that? I hear you ask,

Well it is a radio station

That plays music from our era,

Back in the fifties, sixties and seventies,

When pop music was great.

The great groups and singers

That we sang and danced to

In our teenage years.

A song will come on

And we will both sing out loud,

We know all the words

Because back then

You could understand the words

As they were sung so well.

So here we are

My lover and I singing loudly,

Singing loudly songs of our youth

With smiles all over our faces,

Taking us back to those wonderful times

When pop music was great.

    Good write Gold.

    Nothing like a sixties or seventies revival. An exciting time for music. Such great songs, singers and groups. I count myself lucky that I had the opportunity of seeing the Beatles live. Wonderful to remember the days of our youth and to have a sing song. More so if you have someone special to share it with. Lovely memories Andy. Have a great day.

            Although not a singer or dancer, I too love the music of late 50's through the 70's the best. Awesome write Andy. 🎼🎶🎵
