All You Need Is Love: A Playlist for Marital Bliss.
16 All-Time Favorite Love Songs
I used to play old Beatles records on my parents' record player. And Thriller. I loved the photo of Michael Jackson with the baby tiger.I used to make mix tapes.Then, from 2005 to 2011, I made mix CDs for my friends and family for Christmas. I abandoned the practice in 2012, due to living abroad where the postal service is not too reliable and the advent of digital music technology. Although I definitely appreciate iTunes, my iPad mini, and other online music services such as Pandora, I must say it is sad to think of vinyl records becoming extinct.I got married on July 19. We didn't have a wedding, but if we had, I would have played these songs at the reception.
