Can I post 50 songs from each decade?

Minor detail.

Oh! I just got it done and was trying to add a couple...and my internet shut off!!!

Now I have to start over, but I'll use the Edit function this time.

OK; now I'll add a couple and one I may not find.

It's Only a Paper Moon; a bit too old for this list
Can't even find this instrumental I'm looking for.

Did you catch the repeats of Sinatra's 60s TV specials on TCM last month -- I was singing right along -- Ella Fitzgerald was fantastic.
