We all know that each generation has its own style of music. Our grandparents have jazz and soul, our parents have rock and disco, we have rap, electronic, hip hop and a mixture of all three. There are songs that our grandparents and parents listen to that we cannot appreciate, and then there are those songs that our generation listens to and they give our parents a headache. However, there is a select group of songs that every generation can enjoy. I have compiled a list of 18 songs that are not generation-biased. These are songs that anyone at any age can listen to, appreciate and sing along. No matter what year you were born—whether you grew up during the time of the Great Depression or you grew up during the sex transformation of Caitlyn Jenner, I guarantee these songs will have you singing along.
