I thought about posting that (great song). But then I read the genre description and it didn't seem to fit:
Yeah, it really doesn't qualify as easy listening, but since Easy is part of the title and I love the song to death, I decided to throw it out there.

It made me realize I don't know what easy listening is. And I don't think this thread is helping much, with the wide variety of styles. :laughing:
Easy listening is really just a commercial radio demographic that gives 40 something post mid-life crisis sufferers a soundtrack to ruminate over their regrets, could-have-beens, and whether or not they still believe in life after love while they pound terrible coffee and consume mass quantities of donuts and antacids inside their cubicle universe.

i would think that stuff like Sade would be considered easy listening

Well, I don't know, maybe this is easy listening (I guess that depends on the mood)
Is this, like, what schlager is in Europe?

According to Larst.eff em, this is considered Easy Listening. But, I currently think Toby Driver's music is fucking scary. Kandu Vs Corky and Brown Light Upon Us will forever give me nightmares.

How dare you post quite possibly the most sycophantic, sentimental, sickly track ever recorded and a downright affront to music in general here! ;)
Lady In Red is absolutely fricking awful but it is easy listening I guess!
Best Lounge/easy listening track for me:
I listened to this 4 times in a row this morning walking to work!
