This week has been characterized by uncharacteristically intense and unusual weather for Redlands. From high winds to legitimate freeze warnings, the desire for warmer days to return is becoming unbearable lately. Those idyllic, and admittedly unrealistic, days of bike riding on the beach or laughing at park picnics may only be a few months away, but the carefree music that accompanies these activities persist all year long.

In this era of contemporary music, most radios are bumping the melodies of the most notable artists out there. Across the airwaves, Lizzo or Post Malone are filling ears with their popular tunes, but the occasional listener will continue to enjoy the songs that are lesser known or simply lost to time. These are the songs that are considered either alternative or indie, but overall haven’t received the recognition they deserve.

Music nowadays is considered very diverse and everyone has a choice in what they decide to listen to in their free time. The oldies is a genre that has been around for a while, but it has increased in popularity in recent years. Famous singers like Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin have made a comeback with an increasing amount of listeners in 2019. Original songs have inspired current artists in contemporary songs, and they can be heard almost anywhere you go. The genre varies throughout the time period of 1950-1980. This specific genre is sadly uncommon on the radio, as there are few stations dedicated to these songs and artists. Currently, the genre is popular among multiple generations, as it looks back into a time when, according to some people, music held true meaning. My personal top 10 songs vary in artist and time period, and they are in no particular order. However, in my opinion, these are the best of the best from their time.

A certain sight, smell, feeling or even sound can instantly transport someone to another time or place defined by that sensory detail. Songs have the ability to grab hold of someone, and remind them of memories with friends, enemies or mere acquaintances. Whether they introduced you to the tune, jammed with you in the car or were mindlessly singing it on some random Tuesday, the people with whom these memories were created will certainly resurface while the song plays. For this week, I have asked several friends and family members which songs they associate with me, and this eclectic playlist is the result:
