The songs on this site are arranged in alphabetical order by the title. They will be set up like this:
| TITLE
(Which is also a link to a video of the song) |
ARTIST's Name
(a link to the Wikipedia biogaphy of the singer or group) |
RELEASE DATE
(When the recording first went on sale) |
"THEN" PHOTO
(A picture of the singer or group from their early days.) |
"LATER" PHOTO
(A more recent picture, especially if they remained active in the music business.) |
LYRICS
(click on the word "lyrics" or on the artist's picture to find the song's lyrics.) |
Note about reading song lyrics: Some of the songs linked to on this site have clear, easy-to-read lyrics. Other songs, especially ones written like poetry put to music, are harder to understand. The poetry/lyrics often refer to cultural or historical events or ideas that a reader from another country would not know. Other times, the lyrics don't make any sense at all, in any language, but they sound good in the song.
If you have any questions about anything, or if you find a link that doesn't work, send them to Mikie Metric . Type "comments@mikiemetric.com" in the IN box of your e-mail program.
There will be multiple links for some songs if more than one artist did a creditable version of it or if it is known by different titles.
Click on the letter below to go to the songs beginning with that letter.
Titles beginning with 'A' or 'An' will be under A. Titles beginning with 'The' will be under T. If a song is known by different titles, such as "The Letter" by the Boxtops, commonly called "Give Me a Ticket to an Airplane", then I will try to list each title under the appropriate letter.
| A | B | C | D | E | F-G | H | I | J, K | L |
| M | N, O | P | Q, R | S | T | U, V | W | Y |
