Songs for Seniors Quiz

Songs for Seniors Quiz
117 2 46 507

Here is an over 80s song list. It includes lyrics to over 80 popular songs from yesteryear to enjoy in a sing-along.

Sing the first line, and then ask residents to sing the next line!

Attached are the lyrics to the songs, song titles and the answers in red.

Just so people know, it took about 9 hours of work to do this...so hopefully, people appreciate the effort that I and of course you make with organising activities.

Melissa avatar

Wow. Just wow. This resource created one of the most memorable activities I've ever done. We could only get through about half today but I'm going to create a Spotify playlist so I can play the songs with the lyrics next time. Looking forward to it!

*Guys, if you ever get stuck for music for an activity i.e., last post, anthems, hymns, any song from the wartime, relaxing music etc. use the Spotify App! It has pretty much every song you can think of, costs $13 a month and needs internet to access songs but so worth it!

Maurice avatar

Hi Rebecca,

Spotify playlists are very easy to make, right click any song and add it to your playlist.

When you're happy with your playlist, right click it and then "Share" > "Copy Link", and you can send this to anyone.

A nice simple way of sharing curated music!

I so love this Web site and all the great resources here. I really like to bring music into out activities as much as possible and was wondering how to get all these great songs cued up to play at demand. Is it pretty easy to set up a playlist on Spotify?

Gurcharan avatar
