I've just made my daughter sit and watch Neverending Story with me and it instantly took me back to my childhood. Escaping in books and stories.

Do any films or songs instantly transport you back to another time and place? X

OMG! I’ve been trying to make our 6yo daughter watch this with me ever since it came out on Netflix.

Used to absolutely adore this movie. Think I watched it (on VHS) repeatedly when I was a kid.

Can’t get the little one to sit still for long enough to get to the good bits though. We made it to the book shop being chased by bullies before she got bored and put something else on

Also, the Mrs has never seen The Goonies.

Currently on a mission to make her watch that with me - can’t say you’re an 80s kid without having seen The Goonies.

Loads of northern soul tracks do that for me, memories of certain all nighters and friends no longer with us as well as good and happy memories

Quite a few none Northern soul tracks take me back to memories of old gf's mainly because they liked them rather than me liking them.

Thanks Op, never seen it but always liked the theme song (a guilty pleasure for a rock fan). Me and my two boys just finished watching it, they're 10 and 6, let's say they enjoyed it as in the background both of them are talking about the bullying boys

Brice Hornsby & The Range singing “That’s just the way it is” always reminds me of my youth, even though it’s not a song i particularly liked back then.
