Music Meme - via Margene
I saw this over at Margene's and thought it might be fun! If you'd like to do this one, feel free...it's good blog fodder on a week that's been a lot of tired (for me) and not a lot of productivity to show for it!
(and I should probably warn you that I'm a sucker for sappy love songs...Delilah, anyone?)

I think that's the year I stopped listening to the radio. ;-)
Time in a Bottle is my Mom's favorite song. :)
How fun! I'm not sure my graduation year produced so many good songs, though... ;)
Oh wow. It's scary how fast all those songs come back to me. I hated Seasons in the Sun just because they played it day and night. Gah.
