Songs that bring back memories

Which songs bring back memories for you at certain times of your life? Whether it be your wedding song, a song played at the birth of your child, someone's death, when you left school etc. whatever

They're not all particularly deep, but here you go-

Crowded House- Weather with you

That always reminds me of going on holiday in England as a child

Britney Spears- I was born to make you happy

Reminds me of primary school because were all singing it on the coach on the way to the swimming baths


Dj Otzi- Hey Baby

Reminds me of my first ever holiday abroad when I was 10, I think I was the happiest I've ever been then.

Coldplay- Fix You

Reminds me of the time before my grandads death, he had dementia and my mum said the song made her think of him so I can't listen to it now because it makes me depressed.

Red Hot Chili Peppers- Dani California & Fall Out Boy- Dance Dance

Reminds me of my secondary school prom

I have way more, but they're all equally as boring.

Divine Inspiration - The Way (Put Your Hand In My Hand)
Girls Aloud - Sound Of The Underground
Default - The Memory Will Never Die
Peter Gabriel - Big Time
S Club - Goodbye
S Club 7 - Bring It All Back
And lots of S Club and S Club 7 songs, oh and some of the Juniors.
And a few Leona Lewis's.

Some of those songs are not even songs I listen to anymore, just when I hear them I remember something.

Summertime from Porgy & Bess - My ex used to sing it to me any time at my cue. He is a horrendous singer but, magic really, listening to him sing it had a blinding effect on me.

You Will Never Walk Alone – reminds me of my family. I repeat singing this song inside my head when any of them go through a hard time.

Wonderful World by James Morrison. Not for a good reason, I had a friend who committed suicide in 2007 (we had a talent show at our school and she sang this two nights before she died, normally she'd sing jacksons or something upbeat and happy, she wasn't herself that night, I was with her...she did it two nights later. To this day I believe she chose that song for a reason)
Misguided Ghosts by Paramore. ^ the above reason is part of this, along with a secret that my family kept from me for a long time due to this I ended up not trusting people, ended up depressed (I was diagnosed as being clinically depressed, it went on for over 2 years, but I hate using that word because I think it's thrown around easily)..This song made me bawl my eyes out because I'd been trying to convince myself for over a year that I was fine and that I was coping...the first time I heard this I realised that I couldn't do it anymore.
99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger - Reminds me of a friend

Reminds me of my childhood. It was my absoulte favourite and I sang it throughout my childhood without understanding a word of it. Even now, sometimes when I feel under the weather, I sing it at the top of my voice. This is also, I think, the song that made me fond of Tango rhythm.

Midnight at the Oasis by Maria Muldaur always takes me back to my teens and happy summer times with friends.

I've just realised I started a thread but didn't even bother replying to it myself

It Ends Tonight - The All-American Rejects
Reminds me of the shittest time of my life. The lyrics to the song pretty much say it all.

Ignorance - Paramore
Quite recent, but it was when my supposed best friend decided all of a sudden that she no longer wanted anything to do with me. I remember being so upset, because she had been there with me through some tough times, and there was no apparant reason for it, so I was lying in bed, half two in the morning, listening to my iPod, when this song started playing on shuffle. For once I listened to the lyrics and it shocked me how they summed up the situation. I never did find out why she cut all ties with me.

Don't Look Back Into the Sun - The Libertines
When I left school. Someone had been singing it and got it stuck in my head that day. I left some wonderful people and some total d!ckheads behind that day.

C'est La Vie - B*Witched
Reminds me of my childhood.

Halo - Beyonce
Me and my best friends' song

And in response to Angurdaval who said she had a song that reminded her of when she broke her foot, well, when I broke my arm a few years ago, all they would bloody play on the hospital radio was Do You Know by Enrique Ef**ckinglesias! So annoying! Straight after a bloody operation as well! How insensitive and cruel can you get?!
