I've been dowloading old love songs. Any suggestions would be helpful. I prefer long, lost songs we never hear anymore.
So far I have:

Natalie Cole: Someone that I Used to Love
Billy Preston and Syreeta: With You I'm Born Again
Barbra Streisand: Woman In Love
Ronnie Milsap: Almost Like a Song

Help me out peoples.....

all the old people are gonna get upset

I hear these old songs on TV late at night when Time/Life has some new compilation out, and I say, "Hey! I forgot about that song!"

You gotta grow old sometime.

'cheek to cheek' - fred astaire

'night and day' by cole porter

'you're nearer' by judy garland (not so old, that one)

I'm such a sap.

Wow, I never realized what a sentimental person I am.

How old we talkin'? Get some Robert Goulet.

GangstaFam said:

Incredibly old, I'm afraid.

GangstaFam said:

Robert Goulet...there's some lore about how he was discovered, but it escapes me at the moment.

All I know is he was in Naked Gun II.

He sings a nice ballad. And he was my grandma's fave.
