Hi Guys,

I absolutely love 1940's music. I had someone call me an old soul once. I believe it. Anyway my all time favorite WWII song is:

"I'll be loving you always"

I am curious what favorites you all have, if any?

Till I heard Hoagy Carmichael, I never knew how much I'd enjoy "A Huggin and a Chalkin' "...
LOLOL!

For a serious song, I'll have to get back to you...

That's one reason I like my XM satellite radio. Chanell 4 plays 1940's music w/ no commercials. They even do news for the day from the late thirties through the 40s.
I had to bring my grandparents from Indiana to Michigan not too long ago and put on the 40's on 4 and they didn't even want to stop for a "potty break." (Which usually seemed to happen about every hour).
Listening right now at work online!
Regards,
Mark

My favorite 1940's tune is:

I've Got A Gal In Kalamazoo

I've got a few CDs of 1940's tunes, and I play them in the
hangar all the time while working on the SNJ (the airplane
seems to like / remember the music...).

In the last 3 months, I have become an XM fanatic. Picked up the Express model, and been loving it ever since! I rarely, if ever, put on commercial radio...

Robbie

PS- every time I mention it to my girlfriend, all she does is smile and say "told ya so" lol...

Robbie,
I am the same way. I was the one who said, "I'll never pay to listen to the radio."
Now, like you, I dont even tune to regular radio.
Regards,
Mark
