Best Songs to Play to Elderly People
I disagree with the inclusion of Stairway and Bohemian Rhapsody on the list. They are considered eternal songs. I can still hear the atmosphere in the song that it was originally designed for young audiences.
I wish my grandparents were cool enough that they listened to Deep Purple. They've always been into more sedate music. Oh well.
A YouTube comment: Makes us 60 yr. olds feel like teenagers again as we drive down the road.
I can clearly imagine an old man asking his wife whether she remembers the day they met while this song plays.
Give a listen to the 1948 version by Fred Astaire. It's strange he himself claimed he did not have a good singing voice.
One of my favorite 1960s songs.
The piano covers are very impressive as well.
Second happiest song I have ever heard after a jazz influenced classical piece.
My favorite Dire Straits song is Private Investigations but this is more suitable to play for an elderly person you want to have fun with.
Oh yes. The elderly definitely love Elvis.
