Given my young age, I've not 're-discovered' music.

But there are tracks that remind me of points in my life:

Bowling for Soup - The Girl All The Bad Guys Want : Ex-girlfriend. First blowjob. Good times.

Ace of Bass - All That She Wants : First holiday to Pontins. My sister threw a chair through our chalet window.

There's one more that really gets to me, but for the life of me I can't remember what it is. I suppose that's a good thing really, because it reminds me of the day my parents split up. It would've been released around 1994/1995. I thought it was Alison Moyet but after a bit of Googling it isn't, but it's a Moyet-style female singer power ballad though.

I think my first single will probably be the most embarrassing, it was 'Snooker Loopy' by Chas 'n' Dave with 'Wallop! She's gone down' on the B Side.

Dennis Taylor singing, quality.

Quote from: "Fred Elliot"
New Order - World in motion

Obscurely does not remind me of Italia '90 but of a blonde hairdresser I was seeing at the time


That'll be why you played it about 5 times on the way back from Leeds then.

And I'm also guessing you have an affinity with Joe Jackson's "Steppin' Out" because apart from "World In Motion" it was on permanent repeat!

It's always good to hear a track that you haven't heard for a long time that reminds you of the past. For me it's a great part of enjoying music.
