Where the music came from in every stage of my lifetime

How My Sound Was Tracked

by Debi Pick Marquette


As she rocked me back and forth, it was just a peaceful noise 

I later heard her lullaby with such a soothing voice

Too young to know of music, but I loved her sound of choice

As she sang I felt her heart beat, and heard her love rejoice


For me, the next would be; the song and talk so suitable

A little box called radio, would prove quite usable

A lovely piece of furniture, made music beautiful     
.
A record or an album turned, and then turned musical


 I felt so cool in my teen years, with eight track in my car 

I played my drums in high school band, at home I played guitar

Records, Eight track, cassette, CD; are what I've lived so far 

You then could hear your music from a jukebox in a bar


So even at my age, I still love Country, Rock or Pop

I tell Alexa play the songs I once danced till I'd drop

YouTube and Siri; also good to find songs once on top

The music tracked in my lifetime, I know someday will stop

A little bit about my favorite music 
My favorite music all my life were songs that made me dance 
It would be nice to dance again, or have just one more chance
 My YouTube songs; my best dance hits, I've chosen to enhance
In Author's Notes, you'll find the list, please take a little glance

After reading all the splendid entries, so many were almost exactly like mine would have been if I had written about the different songs I liked in my lifetime. I knew I would probably have to duplicate others. So I wrote only a little bit at the end of the music I loved, and then where my music came from in every stage of my life.

These are the songs on my YouTube video that were some of the best dance hits.
If you loved the disco era, along with other trending dance songs and groups, these are great songs on this video.
DONNA SOMMERS-LAST DANCE, MAC ARTHUR PARK, HOT STUFF, ON THE RADIO
BEE GEES- STAYIN ALIVE
FLASH DANCE SONGS- MANIAC, WHAT A FEELING
