[Music] Post a song/tune that your parents love/loved

[Flounce]

Mother -



Father -




I also like both

Tear to my eye when I hear either as neither are still with us.

 

[Change at Barnham]

 

[Seagull on the Hill]

My late mother loved this.

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

This was my late mother’s favourite. Me being brought up in the 70s to the back drop of Neil Diamond’s fantastic album tracks is my reason for me displaying an over reactionary hatred when I hear Sweet Caroline being destroyed by yobs at sporting events and on coach trips

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

My father had a love of classical music which I inherited to a certain degree, this is one I remember well from childhood

 

[nickbrighton]

My mother suffered from Dementia, and found comfort in very familiar things, such as old TV shows and songs. This is the very last song she asked me to find for her on the computer to listen to before she died. It will always remind me of her, and the sheer joy it brought to her, in a very difficult time for us all

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Mum



I can't think of anything the old man liked. He mentioned he liked George Formby, but I'm not posting any of that shite.

The 50s passed them both by. The 60s and 70s was just long hair and a screeching racket. Apparently

 

[Zeberdi]

Mum - Hey There Georgie Girl by the Seekers



Dad - anything by Doris Day including Move over Darling

 

[Insel affe]

Father



Mother

No Fkn idea, had about an hours conversation in my life time with her, music did not come up.

Mum's


for Dad:


and my Mum's mum adored:

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

I remember a few of my Dad’s LP’s - Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Ella Fitzgerald.

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

My Dad, possibly this - he thought she had a lovely voice

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

My mother, possibly this - I remember being on holiday in Ireland when he died and it produced much sadness in the house

[The Clamp]

Dad

 

[OzMike]

My mum's


Never knew my dad and the photos had all be cut in half when I was old enough to relise.
You don't miss what you didn't have.
Must have been a handsome chap though.

My old man had an encyclopedic knowledge of 60s popular music in particular.........there used to be a radio programme on a Sunday lunchtime hosted by Saville where he'd give clues about songs and listeners tried to name the song/artist. Dad would invariably rattle off the answer instantly. His A/T favourite artist.....

 

[zefarelly]

a guess . . . But this was the first album/record I ever remember hearing
