Top 100 Songs of 1959

Earlier I wrote about 1958. I decided to do a list for 1959.

Some of these songs you will recognize, since they are still popular. Some you may recognize the singer, or the song, but not both. Take a step back in time, to fifty years ago, and hear what we heard on the radio, or listened to on our record players.

I got the list from www.OldFortyFives.com.

If you like this list of songs with videos, you can find other lists at: www.chaosgone.blogspot.com.

Grabbed by the Ghoulies

A good Halloween video game is Grabbed by the Ghoulies. It came out a few years ago for the original Xbox, and I don't know if it is still available. Here's a walkthrough.

From: peteypiranha128

The first part of a Let's Play Grabbed by the Ghoulies series I hope to start up. It's the first LP I've ever made, so If there is any suggestions, please post them. I kinda have a bad set up, so I am trying to make it better. If you want to stay tuned to the Let's Play, don't forget to subscribe!

ALSO, I know there is some double sound, that's because the Mic I used to record my voice picked up some of the TV. That's why I have to get a better mic that doesnt pick up other sounds.



Here are some other parts of the game.

Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5

There are more parts to the game. You can see them all at: www.youtube.com.
