Baker Street does it for me -I'm right back on youth club holiday in the minibus when I hear it. Good times.

Kayleigh by Marillion for happy memories and Everybody hurts by REM for not so happy memories , forever known as the dead animal song in our family .

TrionicLettuce · 10/12/2016 23:38

Temple of Love by Sisters of Mercy.

As soon as I hear it I'm a teenager in the goth room of the local rock club, snogging the face my boyfriend. Who is now my DH Grin

Same goes for Love Never Dies by Apoptygma Berzerk. Ahhhhhhhh, those were the days!!

Oasis don't look back in anger. So many memories.
And madonna crazy for you.

Johnny cash and June carter singing Jackson.. they are the picture of true love right there!

CinderellaFant · 10/12/2016 23:57

Yep...mr bright side here!

The whole of Fish's Raingods with Zippos album - much as I really love the album (hence the username) it reminds me of the moment my ex fiancé left me - I can't listen to the song Rites of Passage without tears because he put it on and told me to listen to the lyrics and that is how he finished with me. It's years ago now and I'm married with kids, but it still affects me.

Geno by Dexys reminds me of the first date with DH and drunken shenanigans.

Louis Armstrong, What a wonderful world.
My dream has a boat on the west coast of Scotland. Every morning without fail he plays the Album. That song takes me there in an instant.

FrankiesKnuckle · 11/12/2016 00:05

Portishead Roads.

Love - Forever Changes Album, 16 year old summer of perfection.

Deeply dippy - takes me right back to summer hol as a teenager

budgiegirl · 11/12/2016 00:15

Slave to Love - Bryan Ferry.
There are many songs that remind me of when I was a teenager, but when I hear this song, I am actually there - it's a very strange feeling , and it's the only song that makes me feel that way.

Littlepleasures · 11/12/2016 00:16

More than a feeling by Boston. Takes me back to my first winter away from home at uni.

mummydawn07 · 11/12/2016 00:21
