nore - nothing
keith murray - yeah yeah u know it
madhouse - like a prayer
dj sammy - we're in heaven
vibes & wishdokta - rush hour
nakatomi - children of the night
...seriously this list could be endless so i'm going to stop here
I can't listen to any songs by 'The Lighthouse' anymore because whenever I went round to see my ex, he would play those tunes to drown out the noise so nobody could hear us. Makes me cringe too everytime I hear those songs.
There's also a song by Britney Spears called 'Toxic' that I can't listen to
Theres lots of other songs that remind me of my younger years :razz:
Though Weezer's first two albums bring back nothing but good memories.
I've got lots and lots of songs I associate with memories. Some good, some bad. I used to love Cranes and still do but I always get such a throwback to my blue years so it's kinda hard except if I'm feeling very content with myself.
Instantly I'm, mentally, sitting in a bar on the seafront in Ibiza with a couple of scottish lasses drinking cheap sparkling wine before heading back to theirs...
And soon you'll be looking back at the new Fall Out Boys track - Thnks fr th Mmrs
That really DOES bring back memories for me because my Nan used to sing it!
I rather easily connect songs with any kind of feeling/phenomenon/experience, etc.
Mark McCabe-Maniac 2000
Alice Deejay-Better of Alone
System F-Out of the Blue
Ultrabeat-Pretty Green Eyes
Fields of Athenry
One of those annoying tracks that bring back good and not so good memories.
Livin' Joy - Dreamer, 1995, reminds me of GCSE's + a good year
Pulp - Mile End, 1996, reminds me of my first relationship
Blur - Sing, early 90's, anything sad/moody really
Oh no, that was on all the time when I was doing my dissertation, so that's one of my dissertation songs!
Absolutely loads of songs which remind me of boyfriends; Bon Jovi - Always for the first serious one, The Corrs - Hopelessly addicted for the second serious one and there's one for the current boyfriend that I'm too embarrassed to name!
Most of the charts from the summer of 1999 (we had TVs in the classrooms in 6th Form and we used to have MTV on most lunchtimes, right when they had a chart show on). That summer was one of my best ever, so lots of good memories from that. One particular song from then which stands out is The Corrs - Runaway.
The only other album which stands out was when I was studying midwifery and having a really miserable time. I had just recieved an Eva Cassidy album, and so that album now reminds me of sitting on the bus after yet another horrible shift, crying ( gave up the course when I discovered myself sat on the bus crying on the way to the hospital )
Loads of others I'm sure, but they are the ones that stand out.
The dog would be laying in the garden with her legs in the air (slapper) and then Id look out the window at the downs,big rolling green hills and imagine standing at the top in the sun and wind with the smell of the grass really strong in the air and shitting myself in case a hornet came along and Id run away like a girl!!
I hate the heat of summer but the atmosphere,feelings and memories that it and the songs bring back are brilliant,but weird when you remember how different life was when you were a kid.
All Saints - Pure Shores, reminds me so much of a holiday in Thailand.

There are load of songs that bring back memories that I would rathr forget, including:
Come Back Tomorrow - Inpiral Carpets
Sometimes It Hurt - Tindersticks & Lhasa De Sela
Clap Clap Clap - Ambershades
Sugababes - One way ticket reminds me of sitting in the car in my PJs on christmas morning waiting for my mum to finish her nightshift with my sister singing along, watching the simease cats. And my dad yapping oon about how they had such dull flat toned voices. But I thought it was an amazing song.
Queen songs remind me of when I was a child, happy memories. Queen = memories with dad and Shania Twain = memories with mum. Although they do mix quite a lot.
My dad also has an album called "The Greatest Rock Album Ever" and we used to play it when we were travelling up north from home down south to see my family. Dad used to put it on full belt and we all used to sing along and I used to put my heaad upside down and shake my hair. I was the only person in the family at the time with long hair and I thought I was soo cool.
I love listening to old music :razz:
In my heart, in my soul
I really hate to pay this toll
Should be strong, young and bold
But the only thing I feel is pain
With my heart, with my soul
Some guys' cry you bought and sold
They've been strong, young and bold
And they say "Play this song again..."
It's not old, it's proper music from when I was a kid...
*has Greatest Rock Album*
*and Eagles*
*and Queen collection*
:yes:
Cuz it's a chooooooooon!
Ooo, that one reminds me of leaving school... the media department teachers made us a video of our year throughout the time we'd been there and the soundtrack was that song
As for ones with good memories attached.... god. I can't think now, there's quite a few though.
Ahhhh - Ben E King - Stand By Me
Take That - Patience (I absolutely piss myself laughing everytime it comes on)
Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars
Most songs I like have some sort of memory attached. Atomic Kitten's version of Eternal Flame was the song I snogged my first serious g/f to. Pretty much all the chart music in summer 2001 reminds me of her and her gorgeous chest
Will Young - Leave Right Now reminds me of my first day at Mecca Bingo, cause it hit number one that day
Aaaand Rogue Traders - Voodoo Child reminds me of my Brighton weekender last year
Did they have a black lead singer, or am I thinking of the wrong band?
And more importantly, Hazelhead or Duthie Park ? :razz:
