I have been given an awesome project to work on '60 years of music' to coincide with the queen's jubilee, it should be great, we need to do 3 songs from each decade, so far we have

50's:
Elvis - Hound Dog

60's
The Beatles - ?
Otis Redding - Sitting on the Dock of the Bay
Ray Charles - Hit the Road Jack

70's
Led Zepplin - Stairway to Heaven

80's
Michael Jackson - Billie Jean
Blue Brothers - Soul Man

90's
RHCP - Under the Bridge
Oasis - Wonderwall
Take That - ?

00's
Brittany Spears - Toxic
White Stripes - 7 Nation Army
Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood

10's
Adele - Rumours


Can you guys help on the missing ones, also I'd like to play upright on the 50's ones.

For the 70's ones what about David Bowies "Ziggy Stardust" (easy & great fun to play) & a punkier one, something like The Buzzcocks "Ever Fallen In Love With Someone (You Shouldn't have Fallen In Love With)"?

What about a nice bit of Level 42 for one of the 80's ones? :D

I find it odd that Soul Man is in the 80's ? I know the film is from then but the tune is from the the mid/late 60's

I'd find it hard to resist playing God Save the Queen for the 70s :D

Live and let die would be a good 70s none if you want a rock anthem
