.... Two songs from your teen years that sum up adolescence from your era and we will guess how old you are.

Mine would be

Teenage Dirtbag
I Predict a Riot

Just for fun!

The Story of the Blues Relax
Story of the Blues

If it means something to you then it will do forever. Hardly anyone else seems to remember it though!

Every time I hear it I go on to think of Sixty Eight Guns by The Alarm. I've no idea why - it must have just been a drunken night in The Unicorn in 1980-whatever.

@FatFredsFriedEgg I do that with 80's songs I had taped off the radio and the one that was next on the tape comes into my mind. Maybe you too? Grin

Mull of Kintyre

And the fairground rides played 'I love to Love' and 'you make me feel like Dancin' for what seems like years afterwards.
