mine: Beatles, Rolling Stones, The Yard birds, Small Faces, Pink F.....& co. Sometimes, when I hear a specific song I can remember her and place, situation and circumstances. I feel nostalgia and pleasure for everything that happened with her and I think that if somebody offer to me that I can repeat it all I'll be ready to pay as much as he asks. Do you have such memories?
There are definitely certain songs which, when I hear them, instantly take me back to a place and a time when I was with my husband or a former boyfriend or lover. But, the song that will make me most nostalic is Stevie Wonder's "I Just Called To Say I Love You", but not for the reason you might imagine. That song came out when my oldest son was a toddler and for some reason, he loved that song! Whenever it would play on the radio, he would start rocking and dancing to it and would have a big grin on his face. We soon developed a routine...when it would play (or when I would put the cassette tape in to play it for him, once I bought it), I would scoop him up and we would dance together. It was "our song", you might say....me and my 3-year old son! We would dance and sing and each time we ended it with a kiss. To this day, whenever I hear it, I picture my son in my arms, dancing in our living room, no care in the world, happy as could be.

Awesome. I used to dance around like that with my sons...but there's no particular song attached to those memories.
