Anytime I hear any blink 182 song it reminds me of a ex girlfriend and our long time together through school & college. Happy memories

Buck Rogers by Feeder- Slane August 2003. Chilis Feeder Queens of the Stone Age, I remember that song coming on and the sun was shining, surrounded by about 50 friends and just being absolutely blissfully happy. Best gig ever

Tightrope by papa roach, reminds me every time of standing on deck on the ferry watching England dissappear as I moved to Ireland when I was 15. A good time in my life.

East / North, Cork

Paul Van Dyk - For an angel. Reminds me of a night in Slinky at the Opera House in Bournemouth. I have a very vivid memory of me and 2 close friends reaching for the lazers, feeling the blissful togetherness and the youthful energy that comes from a couple of thousand people who are in moving in harmony and feeling the music. We were always a close group, but that night our shared emotions for each other together with the emotion of his trance (and the mitsubishis) moved us to tears.

Jeepster by T-rex.

First song on a compilation cassette I bought in 1981 aged 16.

Saved for months to afford the cassette player and had to wait another 6 weeks before I could afford the £5 tape.

Still have both.

Anything from Linda ronstadt bring me back to being in the kitchen with my mother whist she was cooking dinner or baking.

Or River Road by Crystal Gayle when it was time to go to school. John the man used to play it every morning on the radio. Anyone from limerick may remember that.

Alexandra Leaving by Leonard Cohen. So poignant, reminds me of a lost love. Good memories, though.
