Songs That Bring Back Memories For You.

Sad, happy, depressing, whatever.. is there a song or songs that bring back memories for you, of a special occasion? or not so special occasion.

Well, for me, when i listen to David Lee Roth's "Just Like Paradise", i think of when i met Ray. He's a huge DLR fan and this was released about the time that i met him.

"I Would Do Anything For Love" by Meatloaf reminds me of being pregnant with Joel. I listened to the radio all day back then and this song was played constantly.

"Butterfly" by Crazy Town reminds me of Hannah. The day we brought her home from hospital, it was being played on the radio in the nursery whilst i was getting her dressed. Also "Jaded" by Aerosmith for the same reasons.

I can't listen to the Stereophonic's latest CD as it reminds me too much of Hannah's very early days and that was the CD playing in the car constantly at the time. Same thing with the Artful Dodger CD.

I hear Nena's "99 Red Balloons" and i'm back at school again, studying for my O-levels.

Ethan You Rasclart!

Personally, Offsprings 'Want You Bad' never fails to remind me of good times. Brings a smile to my face everytime I hear it.

'This Love' on the Cruel Intentions soundtrack is what I usually play (for a very bizarre and unknown reason!) when I'm sad or depressed. Along with Skunk Anansie's 'Secretly'. Reminds me of some good times which unfortunately led to being mondo issues.

Oh..and Nelly Furtado 'On the Radio'. I shared that with a special someone.

EDIT - Just thought of another song that is pretty apt to me. Roger Alan Wade's 'If Your Gonna Be Dumb' as used on a lot of Jackass.

idiosynthetic it's just a ride..

did megadeth cover ace of spades? that song by motorhead is like the metallest thing ever

i do tend to associate albums with what i was going through when i first listened to them and this makes them mean much more to me than if i was just listening to the music. especially rhcp - californication, that reminds me of when i moved out from home, went to uni and discovered so much about life. then incubus - make yourself and tori amos - little earthquakes, when i learned what it is to fall in love. right now i like zwan, as i want to be optimistic about life and what can be done with it.

Linz Â‘this is a song about somebody that i really used to like a whole lot, and i donÂ’t know if i like anymore. itÂ’s not about me.Â’ -ryan adams

"Cool Kids" by Screeching Weasel reminds me of the very early days of my bad- we used to cover it so now every time I hear it, it reminds me of our first gig and makes me smile.

"Rock Show" by blink-182 reminds me of my friends Tim and Sophie and I singing it at the top of our lungs in the back of a Volkswagen camper van whilst speeding through Bristol in the middle of the night.

"Untitled" by Finch reminds me of going to see them with my friends and screaming "R2K! R2K!" at the top of my lungs as Randy climbed up the speaker stack.
