Songs Really maie you think about things

I head this song the other day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAe6uImyrr8 for the first time almost 50 years - I was stationed in Fort Bliss Texas at the time (1955) when it came out - It's Almost Tomorrow - it sure brought back memories when I heard it - was on the boxing team at the time and near the gym was a small PK where you can get a burger or something else to eat - when I stopped there this song was being played a lot at the time - it's something how songs accompany you through life - certain songs make me think of certain times in my life - some make me a little sad at times -

That's the beauty of truly good music, it becomes part of you.

Lola by the Kinks and no. I don't want to talk about it.

Ha Ha Ha - I"m howling John.

Everytime I hear R-E-S-P-E-C-T by Aretha Franklin I think about being 16 and going out to Port Dover friday nights (Summer Gardens) with my buddy Wayne in his beat up 55 Chev. Still a vivid memory after many years.

"Where the boys Are Is Where I Want to Be" by Connie Francis. 1961 Every time I'd sing it my Father would give me a dirty look. :)

Oh man... tears

I have told my wife and kids for years, that I want them to play at my funeral or wake really loud. highway to hell by ac- dc

There is a few but "Remember when" by Allan Jackson always makes me stop in my tracks.

Battle of New Orleans by Johnny Horton. My dad had just bought a used 1957 Studebaker and that was the first song that we heard on the radio of that car.
I also thought the car came with a small TV in the dash but I later learned it was the speedometer with a screen like a TV.

"I'm Sorry" by Brenda Lee at age 15

Still reminds me of a guy whose heart I broke.

YMCA by the Village People. LOL

Black Sabbath - War Pigs

Mom introduced me to real rock but made sure we listened to the words and understood what they meant.

Age 16 to 21 throughout high school and college but she was the unfortunate one. Sometimes wonder what could have been but would not trade my subsequent 32 years of happiness for anything else. A song she often sang to me....
