I remember as a child listening to WHN 1050 IN New York in the 1960,s when they would play songs from Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra and many other easy listening songs, sad to say that music is long gone. For a while a Las Vegas radio station played these type of songs. Now I guess if you want these songs "Serious radio" is where you will find these type of songs.

So glad we are all allowed to have our own opinion. Isn't it great?

[@cp2410]

The song's about a divorced woman stalking her "ex" to get alimony', isn't it?
