 whilst this song was playing.
Or Radiohead “Creep” a long overdue kiss at a works Christmas party.
Or Pulp’s Common People… a teenage party where too much Malibu was consumed and my hair and eyebrows were shaved. 
Or even the classic tear jerker “Everybody hurts” by REM over and over again during a particularly painful loss of a relationship.
So my question to you all is….
What songs bring about extra special memories for you and why?
Let’s see how this does for a Friday afternoon….
(Good job I’m not a psychology student and reliant on volume of comments to pass)

"Pulp - Common people/Disco 2000 MGMT - Kids Justice - Dance Futureheads - Hounds of love MIA - Paper planes ^all remind me of my uni days/ early 20s nights out and road trips. I remember my speakers blowing up at my 21st birthday party while MGMT played and we were all singing along Radiohead - Karma Police Chemical Brothers - Star Guitar ^remind me of two of the best gigs I've been to The Dubliners - Carrickfergus ^reminds me of my grandad as he always used to sing it " Good tunes…. And excellent choice in gigs plus your grandad sounds like a legend… 
Awwww uni days…  where most people go nuts and you spend the rest of your life trying to go back…. Did you get new speakers in the end? | |||

"Rainbow - Since you been Gone. First of the popular rock bands (at the time) I got into thanks to this song." I grew up on Rainbow and Deep Purple courtesy of my Dad. | |||

) but it had given me time to think on this topic 
Nowhere But Up by Knives At Sea: First heard this on Duke Video's 2020 World Rally Championship season review & it remotivated & rejuvenated me on the dartboard after spending most of the year not throwing a dart because of 2020 reasons 
Do You Hear The People Sing from Les Miserables: Reminds me of the end of my Royal Mail career as with strike action during 2022, it made me realise I wasn't happy on the wage I was taking home, working more hours than I was earning for & developing a poor work/life balance. Glad later that year I left after nearly 15 years
One Step Beyond by Madness: The very darts player walk-on I ever knew for the "Dazzler" Darryl Fitton who walked on to this tune wearing sunglasses & doing the nutty boy dance met him a few times at darts exhibitions & won a leg against him
Shut Up & Dance With Me by Walk The Moon: A tune with mixed emotions for me as although it's a darts walk-on tune for former world champion "Bully Boy" Michael Smith, it was the opening tune to my aunt's funeral a couple of years ago & she loved her ballroom dancing 
Green Light by Pitbull: I blame Luke "The Nuke" Littler for this being a earworm tune especially when I'm waiting at a crossing for the green light
& last but by no means least, Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen: Takes me back to my college days where me & my classmates play a Queen album in the college engineering workshops when doing lessons only to lessen learning to sing this song in falsetto much to the chagrin of our tutors (who ironically introduced us to the musical strains of Queen) | |||

"19/20 year old me screaming out the lyrics to "Where's Me Jumper?" by The Sultans of Ping FC blasting out of the deafening PA system at Manchester's legendary but very grotty indie-rock night club Fifth Avenue as hundreds of us crammed on to the dancefloor "bumper to bumper" circa 1993. Simple great fun from - what seemed - simpler times. Brilliant nights and even more brilliant memories. " Loved Fifth Ave! | |||
