I would take either for them over the crap that was around when I was born.

 

[jamespowers]

I thought I'd do my parents' for chances of better music.

Dad: Pop - Frankie Avalon - "Why"
Country - Marty Robbins - "El Paso"

Mom: Pop - Rolling Stones - "I Can't Get No Satisfaction"
Country - Buck Owens- "Before You Go"

Personally, I think my dad was much luckier than my mom as far as music lol

He certainly was. lol lol

Same here, I was in fifth grade when the song was popular. We sang it at a recital, even had one of the kids dressed as a cowboy. lol
