15 songs and what they remind me of

What songs remind you of a specific person or place or moment or time?

  1. "Centerfold" by The J. Geils Band reminds me of playing DDR at my friend's house during her family's holiday parties
  2. "Caledonia" by Dougie MacLean reminds me of my dad in his current state
  3. "For the Longest Time" by Billy Joel remind me of of high school
  4. "I Gotta Feeling" by the Black Eyed Peas reminds me of prom
  5. "Swimming to the Other Side" by Pat Humphries reminds me of Circle Pines Center
  6. "Zombie" by The Cranberries reminds me of AP Comparative Gov
  7. The "Hallelujah Chorus" by George Frideric Handel makes me think of the yearly caroling party my friend throws and that her family threw before her
  8. "Galway Girl" by Steve Earle ironically reminds me of my time in Cork
  9. "Golden" by Jill Scott reminds me of care-free nights in Galway
  10. "Monster Mash" by Bobby Pickett reminds me of Halloween time at Ancona when I was a kid
  11. "All the Pretty Little Horses" (which doesn't have a clear creator) reminds me of my mom singing me to sleep
  12. "Tik Tok" by Kesha reminds me of a Star Trek fan video (Kesha approves of it btw)
  13. "Counting Stars" by OneRepublic reminds me of my aerobics class in college that was in Upper Tarble
  14. "We Shall Overcome" by Pete Seeger reminds me of all of Ancona holding hands and swaying
  15. "Kiss from a Rose" by Seal reminds me of my 8th grade graduation, especially the moment the music stopped and everyone clapped for me (and then my music came back on but after my section ended several people in the audience cried out "Baby!")

(Prompt by me)

"Grand Piano" by Sanwal Deen
