23 Reasons Why Oldies are Better
Odyssey

Since I was a young girl, I’ve always preferred older songs instead of the new modern music. They just seemed so much meaningful than the new hip songs on the radio. I’ve listen to these older songs and just never get tired of them no matter how many times I’ve listened to them. I guess that’s why they call them “Oldies, but goodies.” These songs always get you on your feet, make you feel good, or just sing along with them. I just love every single one of these songs, that's why I want to share them with you. I feel like no matter how old or young you are, you should know these songs or listen to them now:

  1. Born in the USA” - Bruce Springsteen
    1. This song should just be our national anthem.
  2. Can’t help falling in love” - Elvis Presley
    1. This song is just so touching, I just can't explain how much I love it.
  3. Jailhouse Rock” - Elvis Presley
    1. This song always makes me want to jump up and dance.
  4. Stand By Me” - Ben E. King
  5. Lean on Me” - Bill Withers
  6. Let’s get it on” - Marvin Gaye
  7. I want you back” - Jackson 5
  8. I’ll be there” - Jackson 5
  9. My Girl” - The temptations
  10. Livin’ on a Prayer” - Bon Jovi
    1. Here's a funny video to go along with this song.
  11. Eye of the Tiger” - Survivor
    1. I cannot post this song without posting the video of Jensen Ackles in the TV series "Supernatural" doing his own hilarious impersonation!
  12. I will always love you” - Whitney Houston
  13. Imagine” - John Lennon
  14. Twist and Shout” - The Beatles
    1. GET UP AND DANCE!
  15. Let it be” - The Beatles
  16. Hotel California” - Eagles
  17. Piano Man” - Billy Joel
  18. Uptown Girl” - Billy Joel
  19. My Heart will go on” - Celine Dion
    1. This song is not as old as the others, but it's still legendary!
  20. Dream on” - Aerosmith
  21. Bad Moon Rising” - Creedence Clearwater Revival
  22. Respect” - Aretha Franklin
  23. Man in the Mirror” - Michael Jackson

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
