Happy 2017, Everyone

Once again, it's been a while since I posted, for which I apologize.  First of all, Happy New Year to everyone!  The past few years have been very trying at this end, so here's hoping for a better 2017.  A friend of mine did this--a song from each year of his life. It's his "life playlist", so to speak. I thought that it was a great idea. so here's mine. These aren't necessarily my favourite songs of all time, though I love (or at least like) every one of them. Certainly, there were some years that were harder to do than others, either because of a plethora of good songs or a paucity of them, and often, the choice was made based on the memories I have associated with the song.
