First, my cousin, Paris Jane, from modern times:
I hope you do not get tired of my cousin.
She only has about five songs posted on YouTube.
I have been rotating between them.
Here is the link to the list of hits from 1954:

Kitty Kalen, at number 28:
I do remember that song.
So smooth and nice.
Bill Haley & His Comets, at number 26:
Yes!
Rattle those pots and pans!
Ha!
Perry Como, at number 25:
Oh, yes!
So sassy!
Nat King Cole, at number 18:
Oh, yes, so smooth, so nice.
Dean Martin, at number 16:
Okay!
Seems like I heard that song more recently, a few times.
Nice and fun.
Rosemary Clooney, at number 12:
I do remember that song.
Kind of a gospel or folk song.
Seems to be a metaphor, using a rickety house to speak of failing health, in old men like me.
But I am still quite healthy, at 68 years old, thank you very much!
Ha!
Frank Sinatra, at number 11:
And if you should survive to a hundred and five...
Yes, an old familiar favorite.
Doris Day, at number 9:
I think I heard that song covered by other artists.
But you cannot go wrong with Doris Day.
The Four Knights, at number 7:
I do not remember hearing that before, but it sure is nice.
I like the deep voice part that leads in: “Oh baby!”
The Crew Cuts, at number 4:
So lively and fun!
Ha!
Kitty Kallen, at number 1:
So nice and romantic.
Life is made up of all those little things, after all.
Well, here is the link to the list again:

Feel free to post any songs I skipped, but you like, and any songs at all, that you are in the mood to post.
Hugs!
