LIFE most certainly does go on...!\n\nAs per usual,<br> it's seems incredible to think that these songs were released fifty years ago and I wonder how many of us still listen to any one of them on a regular basis,<br> how many of us have owned these songs,<br> either on vinyl,<br> tape or disc.\n\nIt's also interesting to think about how many of those treasured (and scratch-able) vinyl copies have managed to survive through to this day. I mean,<br> you literally had to handle those things with kid gloves and one scratch was enough to ruin the whole record..!\n\nDo you still own any vinyl from 'back in the day'? I still have all of mine,<br> titles such as Rolling Stones,<br> Fleetwood Mac,<br> The Pretenders (one of my favs),<br> AC\/DC (a box set of all their early stuff too,<br> mind you..!),<br> Pink Floyd,<br> Led Zep,<br> Blondie,<br> Madness,<br> The Radiators... to name just a few that I can remember off the top of my head.\n\nThey may be just dust collectors now,<br> but I don't think I will ever be able to throw them away - they hold way too many memories,<br> besides,<br> I'm thinking I could turn them into a sculpture LOL ;)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nBelow,<br> I've listed below the **Number One Songs** that were topping the Australian Charts in 1969 and for convenience,<br> I've provided a link for you to easily have a quick listen to the song and (if you're as old as me) wonder where all those years went.\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\n### Australia Number One Songs - 1969\n[src (http:\/\/www.bobborst.com\/popculture\/number-one-songs-by-year\/?y=1969&chart=aus)\n\n<table><tr><td>\n\nDate:\n\n<\/td><td>\n\nArtist:\n\n<\/td><td>\n\nSingle:\n\n<\/td><td>\n \nB side:\n\n<\/td><td>\n\nWeeks at No. 1\n\n<\/td><\/tr>\n\n<tr><td>\n\nFeb 23 \u2013 Mar 8\n\n<\/td><td>\n\n[Bee Gees (https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bee_Gees)\n\n<\/td><td>\n\n[I Started A Joke (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=fkG4oIPT7tU)\n\n<\/td><td>\n<\/td><td>\n\n2\n\n<\/td><\/tr>\n\n<tr><td>\n\nMar 9 \u2013 Apr 19\n\n<\/td><td>\n\n[The Beatles (https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Beatles)\n\n<\/td><td>\n\n[Ob-La-Di,<br> Ob-La-Da (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_Paqe2-BCYM)\n\n<\/td><td>\n\n[While My Guitar Gently Weeps (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VJDJs9dumZI)\n\n<\/td><td>\n\n6\n\n<\/td><\/tr>\n\n<\/table>\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\n<center>\n\nThanks for stopping by and reading my post,<br> I really do appreciate your time. \n\nI hope you enjoyed taking this trip down memory lane with me,<br> please join me again next month as we travel on to March 1969.\n\n### And remember to keep smiling,<br> it makes people wonder what you're thinking...!\n\n<br>\n\n<center>\n\n![Kindest Regards (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/VBf96Pj.png)\n\nIf you enjoyed reading my post,<br> please follow,<br> comment and upvote.\nAll photos,<br> stories and graphics are my own work unless otherwise noted.\n\n<br>\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/nPCnREd.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\n[![ (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/50x60\/http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/@alphaccino.art\/posts.png?update)![ (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/@alphaccino.art\/comments.png?update)![ (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/@alphaccino.art\/votes.png?update)![ (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/120x100\/http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/@alphaccino.art\/level.png?update)![ (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/@alphaccino.art\/payout.png?update)![ (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/@alphaccino.art\/commented.png?update)![ (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/50x60\/http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/@alphaccino.art\/voted.png?update) (http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/board.html?user=alphaccino.art)\n\nTo make your own steemitboard footer,<br> check out [this post (https:\/\/steemit.com\/steemitboard\/@arcange\/steemitboard-how-to-create-an-awesome-footer-with-your-awards) by @arcange\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProudly representing\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/WGuBGxi.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProud supporter of @steeming-hot\n\n[![steeming-hot-bot_small.png (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmdCimXD2sHmZFpicaiPQvLwHc8T9mbn1PmU5f9QgbsT4M\/steeming-hot-bot_small.png) (steemit.com\/@steeming-hot)\n\n<\/center>",<br>"json_metadata":" \"app\":\"pruner\",<br>\"message\":\"See you on the other side!\" " |
