We could split it, and mail the CDs back and forth.
I LOVE the 70's.
sigh. I guess I am a dork, too.
You crack me up. Maybe you should see if you could download the top 70's hits from itunes. It may be cheaper/faster.
We are definitely the same age.
I'm gonna have to say I agree with you on your self-assessment. Not to worry though, there's a LOT of us out there. I knew everyone of those songs!
That compilation would be a HIT in this house!
Sadly, I own Monster Ballads. :)
Ak!!! Quick, someone get this woman some Maroon 5, STAT!
If I know every one of those songs, but did not recognize some of the grammy nominees this year--does that make me a dork?!
Love the image of the little girl in the vfw--been there, done that.
ya might have to spring for it.
hotch--i'm glad you're a dork like me : ) and while my 1st love remains the 80s, i heart me some 70s.
bea--i need to put some of those on my mp3 player : )
only--physically i'm 40; mentally i waffle between 12, 16 and 26 ; )
just b--i don't recognize half of the current singers and wouldn't know the grammy people if i ran into them on the street.
kristin--monster ballads, also something i'd love.
ib--it should be noted that these are not my fave songs (see previous post on what's on my mp3 player).
astarte--i heart maroon 5 too actually : ) but sometimes the inner dork has to come out.
drollgirl--i know right? if it were $29.99 i would, but not five payments of $29.99, that's insane.
Yes, I know all those songs and then some....they remind me of riding the school bus(the drivers always had the radio on an AM station playing the hits)
