Love these old tunes. Know many by heart! I’m 70 and raised by Grandparents who were born in 1879 & 1881, then my parents were born in 1915 & 1918, so I was bred on all these dear classics! Sweet, sweet songs of love & life. They will live on for always.
only difference from me, I'm 63, so my grandparents were either already gone, or soon to be. PGrPa when I was about 4 (but I do remember him), MGrMa when I was 10. So my music growing up was Big Band and Beethoven, and Beatles. Not so much as early as the 20s and 30s but I'm into it now. Dad was b. 1912, mom, 1916. M. 1937.
That is amazing. Your grandparents must have been something, bringing you up in their 70's and 80's. I bet they were special. You must have some wonderful stories they told you firsthand.
I'm 67, but really only heard '20s music in old movies. My grandparents were all gone by the time I was born. My mom talked about the big bands, and dances she attended in the '40s. I like the Glen Miller and Benny Goodman bands. Then you had the Andrew'sisters, etc. s,
takes me back to watching warner brothers cartoons as a kid. when you realize those toons you watched in the 90s were made in the 40s and recognizing where all the styles came from with your new-found binge of old hollywood movies
I somehow know all of these songs, and I've never heard them before and I'm only 12! I absolutely LOVE this music. 30's and 40's jazz was just not my style. 20's jazz was always perfect though! Thank you for this video!
Back when popular music had poetry in the lyrics and singers who could really sing. 1920s-1950s are the best. Not sure how we got to the "music" of today.
@@shamicentertainment1262 70s-90s had amazing music for sure, 20s-50s was just even better. That's my opinion, if you don't like it then leave your own comment
I'm likely younger than the usual visitor here, but I quite enjoy older music and this one provides a lovely background to work to. I'm glad it's here!
Habe die Musik bereits als Kind geliebt, besonders wenn man alte Filme schauen durfte, nachmittags bei Oma oder alten Tanten mit Plätzchen und Kakao !❤
❤ Because....you are an old soul....the same here....I'm 69 now....but started my vintage music at 16.....but really earlier through old movies.......when it lives in your soul.....all it takes is to hear again in this lifetime and you have the knowledge that you have been down this road before...it is magical music...I think heaven approved....
@@bettysharp8813That is such an interesting way of putting it. I’ve always been told that I am an old soul. Was obsessed with swing music and WW2 aviation when I was in my early teens. Somewhere deep down my soul-I know I was there.
I am 21 and don’t even know the modern music artist as i was never allowed to listen to any of it but the classical my grandma used and i still till this day don’t have interest in knowing any of modern music.
@@Magical_Maya Let's go back to an era where it felt much more alive and less brain dead with toxic internet mindsets. When people had more heart and soul! Girl, I wish for more soul in today's world 💗
Strange but I do love the music of 1920s to early 2000s..I listened to it day by day depends on my mood. Last night I am listening to sleep to best female jazz vocals. Today I am here in the 20s while enjoying the holiday at the comfort of my home. Birds are singing too in my balcony while I brew my coffee.
I once watched a movie with the illustrious Michelle Pfeiffer playing the role of Léa from Colette's novel Chéri, and now I can imagine exactly the kind of music Léa must have heard in her salon hunting grounds...
Man…this music is just so romantic and beautiful as well as fun. I can’t say that about much music nowadays which is kinda sad. This music makes me want to dance around with my true love at a glamorous, fun party…
The Wedding Of The Paper Doll was one of my favorite songs on a CD that my dad got from a guy who made covers of music from this era. Which was really cool. A grown man from the 2000s-2010s doing covers of 20s and 30s music. We got to see him live a couple of times at his New Year’s Eve show. It was so much fun. People were all dressed in outfits from this era and all dancing to this kind of music while the guy and his live band played this music…It was seriously two of the funnest nights of my life probably ❤️
I don't know what kind of worries bother you, but I hope you listen to music and relieve your stress. you are not alone. I will protect you. I am your healing tree. I hope all your worries will disappear and you will be happy. I love you 💕
I love listening to this in the morning while having a cup of coffee and drawing with the doors open. I like to listen to it on a small Bluetooth speaker rather than my stereo as it recreates that record player or wireless (old use of the term wireless) feel. I find it so relaxing.
I’ve grown up with my dad playing a lot of 30’s, 40’s and 50’s but only a small portion of 20’s. So I’m honestly shocked at how many of these songs I know 😂
I used to listen to this wafting across the alley from the building next door when I was a little girl. Papa couldn't afford to get us a radio of our own, he was a bum.
Until our giggles barter tears, let's live; to spin in freedom though damnation prowls; our shimmy dried an angel’s wettened wings. We’ll be regretless when we’ve fallen down. I’m sure they’ve warned you all about the cold. Has thunder knighted any face that’s dry? It rains and everybody wanders home to reign tomorrow at their 9 to 5. Let’s frolic down pneumonia boulevard; the only souls in the midnight birdbath. O, even in the rain be what you are, to own a smile wrinkles never tax. Surpassing judgements in the thunderstorm, go on and find a thing to shiver for
back when musicians had to actually work to produce music.... the effort shows. modern.... i cant detect a bit of diffrence between them and 70% of words are the n, b, f, words. glad i was raised by an older father who showed me how to appreciate things that have true style.
I’m turning 20 in 12 days and we’re going to have a 20’s/Flapper themed party. I just got my new heels and flapper costume today. I realized that I had never actually danced in heels before. I dance all the time but usually just barefoot around our condo. And I’ve only worn like full on high heels and not just shoes that have a slight heel…like a few times playing dress up at my grandma’s house when I was 5-10. So now we’re going to a have 20’s party in a little less than two weeks and I’m like the main person for it and I can’t dance in heels so I won’t be able to dance in my flapper costume 😂 I’m playing this music to help myself learn how to dance with these kind of shoes 😂
@@staceycook8275 Unfortunately our friends who were going to host it got sick. We were supposed to have it today but we won’t have it till next Saturday now. But we are still planning on having it
After having come through the effects of the First World War, the 1920s was an era looking ahead with optimism for better, happier days. It came through in the music, fashion and freer attitudes of a public eager to modernize.
Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful recordings. I grew up in the 1950s, hunting for 78s like this in junk shops and remember the excitement of running home to play them, much to my parents' bemusement: I had no time for Rock'n'Roll, the nearest to which I came was Elvis Presley's 'Are You Lonesome Tonight?' which itself was a re-recording of Vaughan De Leath's 1927 version.
