These are songs that give me a sunshiney, sort of homey feel when I listen to them, some more than others. Most of them are also fun for me to sing along to.

Nadine, either you are listening to a shortened version of Cabaret, or I'm a bit worried that it makes you smile... "When I go, I'm going like Elsie"?

Great song, though... Great list, as well.

Shalom, y'all!
