Question
I might of asked you this before, but I really want to find some awesome songs that I might not know that are actually really awesome sounding. Because I know they are out there! Please and Thank You

Answer
 Without knowing what your definition of "awesome" is and what styles of music you like,  that would be hard to say.   There are thousands of songs I could recommend, and hundreds of albums.   
  My favorite years for top 40 music are from 1970-1973  but all the top forty music of the sixties was great.  
 I suggest finding "Have a nice day"  CDs which are top 4o collections from specific years.   Also, I suggest borrowing CDs from libraries that are greatest hit collections from various years.
  I also like 1978 and 1979,  those two years had some great top40 music too.

I can answer general questions about rock era bands, record labels they were on, and names of songs. Often I can tell the name of the record company that released a song, as well as the name of the song, and the year of release based on some of the lyrics. I grew up during the rock era and I am a musician myself, and always read the album and 45 info for production credits as well as lineups. One of the chat rooms I go to is quite amused at my ability to name a song along with it`s year of release and record label. I was also a record collector for years.
