Corabar Steve 0 Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 For a bit of help on something I'm working on, I'm trying to compile a list of typical songs for various genres. or songs that typify an era ie. any song that springs to mind if someone mentions a specific genre eg if someone says disco I think of Bee Gees - Staying alive or Donna Summer - I feel love. Sixties & I think of Whiter shade of pale or Mr tambourine man etc.. I want to know what you imediatly think of song wise when you think of the following eras: 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's & genres: Soul, Funk, Punk, Rock 'n' Roll, Indie, Dance (I know this one is pretty vague but..), Reggae, Ska, Rock, Heavy Metal, Country, Folk, Cheese, New Romantic, Mod, Rap/Hip Hop, House, New Wave, Easy Listening/Lounge, Garage (for this purpose I mean modern garage & not the 60's/70's garage rock/punk), R&B, R 'n' B & Big Band/Swing. I know what I think of for all of these but I need more input for this project. The more catigories you can answer the better, but if only certain ones bring something to mind then that will do. Thanks Steve... Mad bad & dangerous to know Better to study for one hour with the wise, than to drink wine with the foolish.
