From
Album To CD

I grew up in
a world, playing albums on a turntable
Some songs
were better than others, now if only I were able...
To put the
songs in, a orderly sort of way
Then I'd be
playing, my favorites all day
Time has a
way, of bringing about a change
Now we have
CDs, now we can arrange
Ripping and
burning, all our favorite songs
In a certain
order, right where it belongs
We can take
the best, and put it on a CD
That's the
way, I always thought it should be
Song by song,
the very best
Listen to it,
while you rest
Make it the
way, you want it to play
In your
favorite order, on every day
Make it a
variety, or one artist to hear
Created
especially, to enjoy with your ear
Music to wake
you up, or help you to sleep
Right by the
bedside, which you always keep
I have a
large selection, that I can choose
When it's my
choice, I know I can't lose
On albums
there were always songs on the album I
would love
to skip over. I would play the singles and
turn them
over and play the other side. I always thought
that they
should have some way to be able to put it in the
order of
the songs you love best. We were able to do that
with the 8
Tracks and Cassettes. Then CDs came along,
followed
by MP3 Players (& iTunes). Now we can put them
in any
order we want. We get to do it the way we like it best.
I love it!
