Nothing else matters.
Takes me back to 92. Me and one of my two best friends, arms slung across each other's shoulders, singing along to it at my first concert ever.
That's a loooong time ago, but it's one of my best, and clearest memories.
The Animals doing “House of the Rising Sun”. My Dad loved that song and ever since he passed over a decade ago I can't hear more than a few notes of it and his loss comes right back. Yeah, some songs just HIT. “Tusk” by Fleetwood Mac - my sister and I as kids dancing around like idiots with that tribal drum beat, laughing our heads off. Core memory for sure.
House of the rising song is one of the best songs ive ever listened to. sorry for your loss
Thank you, that's very kind of you.
Got a call to rush to hospital. They were going to switch off life support to cousins dad. Was listening to ColdPlay when I got into the car. Fix you was playing.
Tears stream down your face lyric wasted me.
The song will always be about supporting my cousin and being there for them.
Billy idol greatest hits was playing on repeat when I played Super Hangon on my amiga. Always takes me back.
But not tonight by Depeche Mode walking to church on Christmas Eve. I didn't have it playing but I was singing it in my head that night. Not religious at all but that song in that moment was my hymn.
Don't bang the Drum by The Waterboys. Guitar screaming and nearly getting knocked by a car while walking to my final exams.
Dead Island backwards trailer for the game. Mad World trailer for gears of War. Gary Jules Everybody wants to rule the world Assassins Creed trailer. Lorde. All of them take me to watching those trailer for the first time.
Thank you for sharing.
For me it's Stand By Me by Ben E King, my wife and I had our first dance as a married couple to that one.
That's beautiful ❤️
Heroes by David Bowie always reminds me of underage drinking with my friends from high school for some reason.
"One More Time, One More Chance" by Masayoshi Yamazaki, first time I heard this song was when I watched the anime "5 Centimeters per Second". Ever since then whenever I hear this song, it reminds so much of my ex.
I just posted a link to the album The What! Help is on the way
There's a track list in the comments of that post.
Revolution #2 takes me back to those lunatic times of protest, following the second invasion of Iraq.
Baby Obey hits me with a specific lost-love heartbreak memory.
Sweden by C418
Some bring me back to a moment, others back to a time. Like “I Can’t Go For That” by Hall & Oates will take me back to the 80s, but something like “In My Time of Dying” by Led Zeppelin reminds me of the time I was listening to LZ while playing Super Mario Bros. 2, or “Narayan” by The Prodigy and playing Final Fantasy XI.
"Untitled" by Smashing Pumpkins. It's not my favourite song of theirs but it immediately takes me back to when it came out, watching it with my first girlfriend on Kerrang TV.
Creeper! Awww man...
All of them
I listened to a lot of Sons of Kemet during a 1400km self-supported bicycle race. I can perfectly recall a moment when, going north up the coast and seeing the mountains in the far-off distance I realized that not only will I have to pass those that same day, I'd have to pass anything I encounter on the horizon for the next four and a half days before the end - the song that was playing was https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJRrk3PMFdc
