Hi there

Soul music is my thing. You might have guessed that with my avatar?

Anyway, I feel i have an above average understanding of Soul music....a statement that could come to haunt me hah hah :-)

Would be good out of curiousity to see what peoples top 20 records are. These are mine. i could honestly make out 100 top hip shaking, foot stomping movers. However thought best to keep it simple. oh, this selection could esaily change in a weeks time.

I go to dancing (Ceroc) and I do get a chance to really feel how much soul a song has in relation to its dancability.

IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER.

This is a forum to share ur favorite songs and open others to different genres of music. It is my belief that music can heal and motivate, songs speak to us and we can find songs to relate to.
