Blast from the past! Some old songs

I'm a bit obsessive about archiving things, I always think this will help me find them later. Somehow I'm not convinced with the 'Find" feature in Windows.

I lately found a very old CD, one that I had as a backup for my first owned PC. I was into songs at that time, and it really felt good listening back to some of these oldies. So, I looked them up on youtube, and I hope it'll bring you some memories as it did to me;

My first ever song was this one, we had a Phillipino housekeeper who was obsessed with Bryan Adams, and I think she was the one who made me love those kind of songs, and love Bryan Adams. I was only 9 at the time, and I remember that I enjoyed watching the video just to watch the Dog wandering round the studio, I really loved Dogs.


I'm sorry I can't embed this video in particular.

The other one, which I think a lot of you don't know, but this was the funkiest song I ever heard, and is still so. I really loved the rhythm. I didn't know who was singing it. back at the time when no internet was available I only knew it as the " down" song. I thought that it was a hit, but it seems I was the only one who ever heard of it:




This one is also a bit special, I really loved the video at the time, and the funky music of course. But what I didn't figure out at that time was why she was so happy about a "Saturday" Night. I mean it was the first day at school, and no one seemed happy here!


Now, This one is a Classic. and the same thing, I didn't know the name of the Singer till years later. This was the "Far away" Song. I guess there was no video at all for this one, but the music is enough.


Of course, this one is also a famous all time hit. MC hammer had even his own cartoon show that I used to watch. I tried multiple times to do his walk, but I wasn't a dancer at all.


Now, this is a song that almost any literate Jordanian will know. Even if he had never listened to Western music, he would definitely know this one. I don't know why. I guess they used to show it on TV or something. But is a great song indeed.


Now, this last one used to be my all time favorite, and is still on the top list. Useless lyrics, the Band is somewhat gay. But the music is great.



I guess that is what I found by now, there are so many other songs I want to share, but I'll delay that to another time. tell me if you had any songs that brings some memories to you. For me, all those songs bring some really great memories.
