Oh yes, that song takes me back to late '70's and a 30 year old divorce named Cathy. She couldn't get enough. That Woman damn near killed me.

Best “I’m not putting up with this crap any more” song ever. I listened to it over and over (and bawled.) Jo-El Sonnier’s “No More One More Time”

Also question-what am I doing wrong when I copy the Youtube link and paste as URL that it doesn’t display anything but the link?

Just out of college, single, first job, great co-workers, still doing things with my college friends, no cares. Hearing this song even now takes me back to those days and makes me smile.

Whole bunch of songs take me back to high school days in the 70"s, girls, skipping school and drag racing. But, when I hear any of the songs from the Beach Boys Endless Summer album it takes me back to my junior year in HS, cruising the main street of our town in a 1963 Impala SS with Carol sitting as close to me as she could. 8 Track of course.

Jeez I miss the innocence of those days.

One of these Nights by the Eagles. Takes me right back to 75 after graduation. Had a 70 Dodge Challenger with Mind Blower amplified speakers. Me and my best friend played it at least once a night that summer at full volume while hitting 100mph at the same time.

What a summer that was!!!

Proud Mary by CCR. My dad used to sing this while strumming his acoustic when I was a young boy and I can still remember exactly how it sounded. I think about him every time I hear that song.

Yeah, one of my friends had a ‘62 Bel Air bubble top with an 8 track tape deck. I remember this song in particular because there’s a point, only about a minute-and-a-half into the song where Jimmy Page is messing around with a violin bow (and feedback, and a pick edge…), Bonham is just lightly touching a ride cymbal and keeping time with a high hat, Plant is just being Plant. The sound starts going from R to L channel and front to back, actually revolving around the car. It’s pretty much a relief when Bonham re-enters the song with machine gun rim shots and Page’s lead riff. Like it was yesterday.

We bought the Mind Blower speakers in the seventies when they first came out. The first cassette we bought was Van Halen’s first album. Had a 69 GTO and we cruised all night cranking the speakers.
I miss those day’s.

I'll follow the sun...a melancholy Beatles ballad. I had never heard it,
when in 1978 we discovered the sheet music on my buddies
piano, during his clan's wake.

Infantry Scout in Vietnam, 1965-1967. Nancy Sinatra... Boots (These boots were made for walking). We did, for days and weeks at a time, jungle and rubber plantations and rice paddy.

More than any other song, The Voice by The Moody Blues takes me instantly back to a particular moment in time. When I hear this song, I am teleported back to a fraternity party one evening in 1981. It's as though I can still feel the autumn breeze through the open windows and smell the various odors associated with that old, ramshackle house.

I remember being on a road trip about 25 years ago, driving on I-40 and going through Winslow AZ with the radio on.
