Songs you liked as a kid and still do

Eventhough I had no clue what the songs were about when I was a young child (didn't no English), I really liked these songs. And I still do. What are your fave songs from childhood?

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

lol @ the Sesame street 'I want a monster', never heard it before.

Well, these 2 songs prove it, you are a romantic soul by nature. Even as a kid you already were a romantic.

I totally understand that. It's nice upbeat, cheerfull and has 'funny' voices and sounds. I can understand why that was the first song you 'fell in love with' lol

It's great isn't it? My fist songs, will allways be special to me. wink

Actually, I heard a lot of southern rural blues songs because I lived with my grandparents in the country when I was little, and that was all my grandfather played. He also played guitar and sang himself. Wasn't really anything romantic about a lot of it. lol The Sesame Street is from when I moved in with my mom who had moved to the city. I won this album in some kind of contest (field day I think) in 1st grade:

The entire Grease movie soundtrack. Years later, I bought the photonovel where I saw the lyrics for the first time and I thought, "is that what they were saying?!?" omfg

Steve Miller Band:

Fly like an eagle

You were born in the early seventies too?

I love the Steve Miller band. I should get myself a cd, because it is one of my childhood favorites.

My parents also had Simon & Garfunkel, The Police, Al de meola (did I spell that right?), the Dubliners and just a lot of guitar vinyls.
