I was wondering if anyone could name a few of the most popular OLDIES songs and the name of the artist? Oldies as in the 50's.
DooWop and stuff like that.

Good ones so far. I am looking for a song for Myspace. I have a myspace because it is a good way to stay in contact with my friends and family across the states. But I really prefer oldies. I LOVE and know MANY oldies songs but I dont know the names of the songs or the bands.

The list is endless.
Just some good Doo Wop
The Night is Over : The Gems
Some People Think : The Capris
I Wonder Why : Dion & the Belmonts
Till Then : The Classics
and my favourite doo wop

ANY song by Eddie Cochran: Summertime blues,Teresa
Jerry Lee : Breathless; Lovin up a Storm
Girl Groups
Shirelles : Will You Love Me Tomorrow : Foolish Little Girl
Chordettes : Born to be with You ; Teenage Goodnight
Those are just a few of thousands of brilliant records from the best era of music.

Lemme see.. I'm a little more of an expert on the 60's, but here goes..
THE most popular song of the 50's was "Rock around the Clock"
Also "Jailhouse rock" by Elvis and "Hounddog"
Elvis was King of the 50's. Just look for some of his earlier songs that are super well-known.
At the Hop- Danny and the Juniors
Smoke gets in your eyes - Platters
Great Pretender- Platters
Mack the Knife
