Found this tool via StumbleUpon (now Mix.com). You can find music that takes you back to your childhood. It's called “The Nostalgia Machine”? If you're like me and often share music for #TBT or #throwbackThursday this tool was made for you.
To get you started you are prompted to pick a childhood year.
'OK! I'll play along. I come from the generation that didn't have the Internet. We listened to music on vinyl records and if we dared scratch a record, on purpose or by accident, our parents took money out of our allowance to pay for damaged goods!
Go ahead! Try and fool me!!'
So I picked a year. I couldn't believe it!! Magnificent throwbacks from back in my day! Such wonderful memories.
Here are some (not all) of what showed up for the year I picked. It was great music from one of the best years of my life! :)
I'm like: 'I can't believe it! I remember all these songs!!'
● Archie Bell & the Drells - Tighten Up
● Aretha Franklin - Think
● Bee Gees - I've Gotta Get a Message to You
● Hugh Masekela - Grazing in the Grass
● Jerry Butler - Hey, Western Union Man
● José Feliciano - Light My Fire
● Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell - You're All I Need to Get By
● Mason Williams - Classical Gas
● Otis Redding - (Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay
● Paul Mauriat - Love is Blue
● Richard Harris - MacArthur Park
● Simon & Garfunkel - Scarborough Fair/Canticle
● Sly & the Family Stone - Dance to the Music
● The Beatles - Hey Jude; Revolution
● The Delfonics - La-La (Means I Love You)
● The Rascals - People Got to Be Free
If you tell me you remember them too, I'm going to tell you that I know how old you are!! And don't even try to fool me by saying: “Oh I only know because my parents listen to this music!” :)
