Spinoff: Songs with good memories

BESIDES WEDDING RELATED/DH songs....Chat Icon


Doorbell by the White Stripes - because we sing it in the car

Any Paul Simon or Spinners song - reminds me of my parents

Crocodile Rock - reminds of childhood

Benny & the Jets - putting on a dance show for all of our parents

Eye of the Tiger - sailing with my family. During a raft up my dad rigged up "disco" lights on the mast so we could all dance.

Margaritaville!!!

We actualy call my parents house Margaritaville in the summer because we all sit outside by the pool, bbq, and drink margaritas. Margaritaville is always open, whether it be 2 people or 10. And if it rains, we can still sit on the porch and drink! Chat Icon

Re: Spinoff: Songs with good memories

So many...I have a lot of songs that are sentimental for me. I have good relationships with most of my exes, so the songs give me a good feeling, and I also have a bunch of songs that I associate with my HS friends.

Ex-boyfriend songs:
Open Arms - Journey
Fade Into You - Mazzy Star
Save Tonight - Eagle Eye Cherry
Don't Want to Miss A Thing - Aerosmith

H.S. songs:
Runaway - Bon Jovi
November Rain - Guns N Roses
Because The Night - 10,000 Maniacs
The Rose - Bette Midler


Just a few for starters.

Amber - Sexual (Was playing at all the clubs when I first my DH.)

Bellamy Brothers - Let Your Love Flow (My father used to play that record over and over on the weekends when I was really young.)

Alphaville - Forever Young (reminds me of my Junior & Senior yr in high school when we went for trips up to the Catskills.)


There are just sooooo many songs that bring back fond memories for me. I live for music and have so many associations with it.

So many..but off the top of my head

DH and I both love Time Passages by Al Stewart. We've had many rides in the car with that one blasting.

Also the entire Jazz Singer Soundtrack (Neil Diamond) is a old family favorite.

Re: Spinoff: Songs with good memories

Old songs have good memories for me. When I was a little girl, I loved plastic high heels. There was this song called "I'm Your Puppet" from the 60s, and my dad used to play it. I used to put a rose in my teeth, put on my little heels and drag my blankie and shake it across the basement to this song...OMG. So hilarious.

Also that old song "Cherish." And, "My Girl." I am very close with my daddy; these songs remind me of him taking me fishing when I was little.

Now, my wedding song. "I Could Not Ask For More" by Edwin McCain.

Margaritaville - My father sang that in the car once and I thought he was cool because it was very out of character for him to sing at all.

Re: Spinoff: Songs with good memories

Crocodile Rock by Elton John - probably my all time favorite song from my childhood. This song used to make me laugh hysterically when I was a little girl.

Yellow Submarine also reminds me of my childhood - way back in the 70s when my parents were still married

Dancing Queen by Abba reminds me of my best friend.

Re: Spinoff: Songs with good memories

Everybody Wants to Rule the World - Tears for Fears. I can remember this playing in the car when I was young and we'd be on our way to the beach - fun times.

Heaven is a Place on Earth - Belinda Carlisle. My mom wore out this tape!! Again lots of great memories.

There are Places I Remember - The Beatles - makes me think about my childhood

Save a Prayer & Come Undone by Duran Duran - DH is a huge Duran Duran fan and some of my favorite memories with him are with this song playing

Swear to God by Frankie Valli , Never Can Say Goodbye by Gloria Gaynor, Fooled Around and Fell in Love by Elvis Bishop all remind me of my parents.

Total shout out for Al Stewart. I absolutely LOVE him. Time Passages is such a beautiful song. He has an amazing voice!

Young Hearts Run Free by Candi Staton is one of those that I love because from the minute I met my friend Rosemary she said that she was going to dance to that at her wedding...even though its a song about not getting married. So at her wedding we kicked off our stilettos and all danced to this!!! It was a great time!
