Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student manager Eliana (class of 2026) and features some oldies that she enjoys.
Timeless Oldies
I know the title will hurt some readers, but that is what these songs are to me! These are some of the songs that I grew up listening to with my parents. Whenever I go on a family road trip and I am in charge of aux, I will throw on these songs for everyone’s enjoyment. There’s no specific genre to this playlist, just some older songs that I happen to enjoy. I hope you enjoy them too!
Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons – “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You”
Frank Sinatra – “My Way” (2008 Remastered)
R.B. Greaves – “Take a Letter, Maria”
Israel “IZ” Kamakawiwoʻole – “Somewhere over the Rainbow”
Daryl Hall & John Oates – “Rich Girl”
Culture Club – “Karma Chameleon”
Fugees – “Killing Me Softly With His Song”
