I've seen this all done before and then they have complained because they had never heard any of the songs before so couldn't sing along with them because they didn't know the words. Just a thought.

andrejuan   10 #3 Posted February 4, 2017 I tend to agree, whilst you might think a change is good it might backfire.  Other options could be to find someone who sings country? most people like country. Or Jazz ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

mickyboy   10 #6 Posted February 4, 2017 Do you think the very old would appreciate the modern day songs? I've seen this all done before and then they have complained because they had never heard any of the songs before so couldn't sing along with them because they didn't know the words. Just a thought.  The Everly brothers, Chuck Berry, Elvis, Buddy Holly, all had major hits 1957 / 1958. 60 years ago.If you were a teenager at that time you'd now be well over 70. .People who are now 80 years old were only around 26 years old when the Beatles and Stones had their first hits. So while they may not be into Beyonce and Jay Z. They most definitely don't want to hear Bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover and Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag Etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
