Pick a genre, list five songs or albums (preferably with links to the music).
The difficulty is knowing which songs fit in which genre - this sounds easy, but sometimes I have no idea. So feel free to correct me.
Pop
[The category for performers that don't fit in the "rock" category, country, jazz, R&B, Folk, Alternative, Indie, etc...usually seen as soft rock]
1. Billy Joel Piano Man
2. Helen Reddy I am Woman
3. Pink Try
4. Beyonce Single Ladies
5. Lady Gaga Bad Romance
Crooners or the Entertainers - Known as the Singers
This is the soft music, that was mainly in the 40s and 50s, and is still around. Not quite pop and not quite classical. Although some throw it in Pop. These are singers who do not write their own songs, and we really don't notice.
1. Frank Sinatra Summerwind
My father loved Sinatra's music, and he had all the Big Band albums growing up. His brother's borrowed them.
2. Seth McFarland Voices (This man can do just about any voice, and his range is amazing.)
3. Elvis Presley Heartbreak Hotel
4. Barbara Striesand The Way We Were
5. Judy Garland The Man that Got Away from a Star is Born.
By the way, a lot of them did duets with each other..
* Elvis and Sinatra Duet
* Elvis and Judy Garland - You'll Never be Afraid of the Dark
* An odd virtual duet with Barbara Streisand and Elvis she also did it with Sinatra.LOL!
* But Streisand actually did do a duet with Judy Garland Get Happy
* Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra You do Something to Me [ And Dean Martin joined.] OR when they were younger... Embraceable You
* Streisand and McFarlane (who is far too young to have done one with anyone else) Pure Imagination
