For the last decade the nights on the camping have been quiet, but there was I was the night mayor of Frehel and spent almost every night having fun with friends at a camp fire. Back in the day (now I’m sounding really old) there were also lots of people with guitars. So I picked …
In yesterday’s list I shared my favorite Bob Marley songs. Today another music list, this time The Doors. Earlier this week I had Paul Hardcastle’s 19 in my mind. This brought the idea of doing a list with songs about the Vietnam war. And thinking about a list with songs, The Doors came up. Although …
Since I mentioned Sunshine Reggae in yesterdays Top10 list, I had the idea of doing a reggae top 10 today. But since that is not a genre a play very often, so I first need to do some research before compiling that list. The only reggae I do play occassionally is Bob Marley. By far …

I’m trying to stick with music, since that brings me the most joy. And it seems that my readers like that the most as well. But since I cannot do a list from a specific year everyday, I need to come up with some other ideas. So when is an artist a favorite? In my …
OK, since my readers seems to like the music lists, let’s pick another year and have a look at some favorites. Not sure why, but 1997 just popped up in my head. When I look at the hitlists from that year it seems that my favorites were in the lower regions. But looking at the …
