Songs To Recommend To 15 Year Olds

[john]

 

Hi gang

 

I thought it would be interesting to see what the top songs we would recommend to 15 year olds would be. The idea is simply to build a chart based on numbers of recommendations of any individual song. A top 20 chart would be brilliant, but we might struggle on numbers...

 

So, please give me your chart of the top 20 songs you would recommend 15 year old's listen to! Hopefully we can build some sort of consensus.

 

Ok, I'm off to put together my list.

 

Cheers

I'll have a think on this one, but I think all kids whatever the age should be made to listen to classical music to get an understanding of how music works.

Yeah don't suggest it.  Just hide it somewhere in an open place so they can discover it for themselves. It doesn't hurt to mark it with "Mature Content, may not be suitable for those under 18 years of age."
