A trip back to when the music was clean...
More like, less blunt lol.

By far my favorite 50's song though (and I have a lot of them believe it or not):

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter

I don't care how much money I gotta spend
Got to get back to my baby again
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter

Well, she wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live without me no more
Listen mister, can't you see I got to get back
To my baby once-a more
Anyway, yeah!

Bee Gees - To Love Somebody (1967)

[video=youtube;QHtGu0OGEpc]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHtGu0OGEpc[/video]
There's a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be
Lived with you
Lived with you

There's a way
everybody say
To do each and every little thing
But what does it bring
If I ain't got you, ain't got?
Hey Baby

You don't know what it's like,
Baby, You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

In my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I'm blind, so so so very blind

I'm a man,
Can't you see what I am
I live and I breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, ain't got?
Hey Baby

You don't know what it's like,
baby, You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

Ahhhhhhh no no
You don't know what it's like,
Baby, You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

No no no no no no
You don't know what it's like, baby
You don't know what it's like (you don't know what it's like)

To love somebody

Del Shannon Runaway

[video=youtube;8TLLcvWeiKw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TLLcvWeiKw[/video]

As I walk along, I wonder
A what went wrong whit our love
A love that was so strong


And as I still walk on
I think of the thing's we've done
Together, while our hearts were young


I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain
A wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery I wonder
I wa wa wa wa wonder

Why why why why why why

She ran away
And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway
A run run run run runaway


I'm a walkin' in the rain
Tears are fallin' and I feel a pain
A wishin' you were here by me
To end this misery


And I wonder, I wa wa wa wa wonder
Why a why why why why why
She ran away

And I wonder where she will stay
My little runaway
A run run run run
Runaway

The Marmalade - Reflections Of My Life

[video=youtube;kGl74GPhPD4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGl74GPhPD4[/video]
The changing of sunlight to moonlight
Reflections of my life
Oh, how they fill my eyes


The greetings of people in trouble
Reflections of my life
Oh, how they fill my eyes


Oh, my sorrows
Sad tomorrows
Take me back to my own home


Oh, my crying (Oh, my crying)
Feel I'm dying, dying
Take me back to my own home


I'm changing, arranging
I'm changing
I'm changing everything
Everything around me


The world is
A bad place
A bad place
A terrible place to live
Oh, but I don't want to die


Oh, my sorrows
Sad tomorrows
Take me back to my own home


Oh, my crying (Oh, my crying)
Feel I'm dying, dying
Take me back to my own home


Oh, my sorrows
Sad tomorrows
Take me back to my own home

Bobby Hebb - Sunny

[video=youtube;ubvYQxTXO3U]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubvYQxTXO3U[/video]

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain.
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain.
Nowhe dark days are gone, and the bright days are here
My sunny one shines so sincere, Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny, thank you for the sunshine bouquet.
Sunny, thank you for the love you brought my way.
You gave to me your all and all, and now I feel ten feet tall.
Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny, thank you for the truth you let me see.
Sunny, thank you for the facts from A to Z.

My life was torn like a windblown sand
And a rock was formed when you held my hand.
Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny

Sunny, thank you for the smile upon your face.
Sunny, thank you thank you for the gleam that shows its grace.
You're my spark of nature's fire, you're my sweet complete desire.
Sunny one so true, yes, I love you.

Sunny, yesterday all my life was filled with rain.
Sunny, you smiled at me and really really eased the pain.
Now the dark days are gone, and the bright days are here
My sunny one shines so sincere.
Sunny one so true, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.

Itchycoo Park - Small Faces (1967)
[video=youtube;14ViwvgtvbA]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14ViwvgtvbA[/video]
Over Bridges of Sighs
To rest my eyes in shades of green
Under Dreaming Spires
To Itchycoo Park, that's where I've been

What did you do there? - I got high
What did you feel there? - Well I cried
But why the tears there? - I'll tell you why - yyyyy

It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful

I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up, feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be nice and have fun in the sun

I'll tell you what I'll do - What will you do?
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school - Won't that be cool
Why go to learn the words of fools?

What will we do there? - We'll get high
What will we touch there? - We'll touch the sky
But why the tears there? I'll tell you why

It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful

I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up, feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be nice and have fun in the sun

It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
