“My” Songs 2

If you like oldies – and I know some of you do – then you're going to love this post! Awhile back I posted a bunch of songs with the word "My" as the first word in their titles. Most of those were newer songs. Well, this is more of the same theme, but ALL of these songs are older – ranging from the late '50s to the mid '80s. And I've carefully curated them to include only the best and most interesting songs, primarily performed by people you've actually heard of. Imagine that! I hope you will...enjoy!  ~  JH
