I decided what with this being the last day of the "old" year before we hang up a crisp, clean calendar and begin a brand new year full of hope and promise and prospect, that it would be nice to do a set for Travis' Five on Friday using the word 'old' somewhere within the title. What a treat it was to find songs by some of my favorite artists - hopefully there's one or two in the mix that you'll like, too.
As an added bonus this week, I thought I'd include a song by Dan Fogelberg whose music I always loved even though it's brought a tear to my eye more than once. What New Year's Eve would be complete without the song and the tear in the eye both?
Wishing everyone a very safe and happy New Year's Eve and sending wishes for a fantastic year ahead!
That Four Tops track is one of my all time favourites.

I can't see the set on my iPad... But you tube videos are good... And that Dan Fogelberg song is one of my favorites any day of the year!

Joan & Mary are two favourites. Happy New Year, Linda.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful choices particularly the Fogelberg. I didn't do 5 on Friday this week, just reprised the lyrics and meaning to old lang syne with a nice choice of dark haired men for first footing.
