Steppenwolf Magic Carpet Ride...\nI like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine \nOn a cloud of sound I drift in the night \nAny place it goes is right \nGoes far, flies near, to the stars away from here \n\nWell, you don't know what we can find \nWhy don't you come with me little girl \nOn a magic carpet ride \nYou don't know what we can see \nWhy don't you tell your dreams to me \nFantasy will set you free \nClose your eyes girl \nLook inside girl \nLet the sound take you away \n\nLast night I held Aladdin's lamp \nAnd so I wished that I could stay \nBefore the thing could answer me \nWell, someone came and took the lamp away \nI looked around, a lousy candle's all I found \n\nWell, you don't know what we can find \nWhy don't you come with me little girl \nOn a magic carpet ride \nWell, you don't know what we can see \nWhy don't you tell your dreams to me \nFantasy will set you free \nClose your eyes girl \nLook inside girl \nLet the sound take you away,

I'm the original 60's man. I became a teenager in 1960 and grew up through that wonderful decade when music was really born. Prior to that we had stuff like Perry Como and Frank Sinatra but as soon as the Beatles arrived the music scene exploded. I loved the Beatles and was lucky enough to see them play and meet them. I've never seen anyone better. I still play in a 1960's Rock and Roll Showband even though I'm 60 in January. We play pure live music with three guitars drums and a vocalist playing only music from that era.We don't use backing tracks or light shows just pure music as it was then. Living in England I liked all the British bands, Hermans Hermits, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Dave Clark Five, Dave Dee and so on  plus the Beach Boys and Four Seasons. The Shadows were the best instrumental group and backed Cliff Richard. Elvis was OK I suppose but not my cup of tea really. Also Dusty Springfield, The Drifters, Bob Dylan, Electric Light Orchestra, I could go on forever. Wonderful, magical days. Listen to Sergeant Pepper by the Beatles, that says it all.

My favorite of all time is probably "New Age Illusion" by Bloodgood, but if you're talking about a song by bands that are still together, I'd have to say "Hell No" by Bride.

I love it!  There was a time in my life when that song really told my story.  I hadn't thought about it in a while may have to listen to it again.  Thanks for the memories.

Anything by Garth Brooks. Especially "If Tomorrow Never Comes"

I really like and miss Jim Croce` also.  "Time in a Bottle" and "Bad Bad Leroy Brown" are classics that will live on forever.  But my favorite singer from the 70's is Ronnie Van Zant of Lynyrd Skynyrd.  May God rest both their Souls.

Hey, Moon. Actually, I answered a similar question several months back, which you can access here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ar508P_B4Wyt1zbNimNzmxXsy6IX?qid=1006032014570\n\nAnd I named some of my favourite '80s era bands even further back, which you can access here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmDmj_UH5dOiEe0KqohI_Dnsy6IX?qid=1006031200738\n\nI can recommend most or all of them very highly, especially the specific songs and artists on the first list. \n\nNow then, what is this particular song that you discovered weeks ago whilst reading one of your friend's lists of preferred music? Inquiring minds want to know! ;)
