Default What song reminds you of when you were growing up...

A song came on the radio earlier, and it just reminded me sooo much of when I was growing up, The Final Countdown - classic

What a great post !!!!

Anything Rod Stewart, T rex or Bay City Rollers as i was force fed these as a child.

Rod and T rex I don't mind but BCR takes the piss epecially as my mam had me young and thought "I know I'll name him after on of the BCR" She never thought she'd be scaring me for life

Chris how was the rest of your weekend in Newcastle ?

josh wink higher state - about the 25th time it was realised I think but it was amusing as I'd just left school and editing the manifecto cover so it said something rude amused us on a drunken sunny afternoon!

richard marx - hazard - playing it on the keyboard!!

oceanic - insanity - learning all the words

poing - rotterdam termination source or something similar!! listening to exile FM - pirate radio on 100.7 at the weekends! had the new day its a new dawn track as the show opener!!
