If music be the food of.... what you are..

I came across an Australian site that says most of the people like us would find some well-known commercial songs much to their liking as opposed to just top-hits of the day.  The songs are not exactly contemporary and I tend to think the group of people they refer to are of the slightly more mature generation.

Anyway, below is a list of the top 50 songs favoured by people like us in the English speaking world.  See if you can figure out just how many are yours..
