Favourite song of years gone by

What song reminds you of your youth

With me it was" Rave on" by Buddy Holly

I logged on to post this below (pre'composed' using Windows 'Wordpad') and saw your quesion! Almost spooky...

I hope to post more video links here in the future - even some to my own 'work'!
In the meantime, I have to say I'm a sucka for Youtube. I spend far more time there
than I do watching television. I had a tune going round my head today,
"Elusive Butterfly" by Bob Lind, which was released in 1966.
I was 10 years old at the time, so that makes me what now? 24 or 25, math(s) never was
a strong point with me.
On Youtube, after entering the title into the search, this vid was one of the first things that came up.
It's an extended (live) version of the song. The commercial "studio" release was an edited
version. I once had a friend who would have described the lyrics as -
"An A-level English student attempting to flex his muscles".
I quite like it. You can't "Strut yo funky stuff" to it, but a cheese sandwich and a nice cup of tea
might serve... See what you think.

But if You wanna talk Rock'n'Roll (and related sounds) I'm up for that. Love Buddy Holly b.t.w.

...And another memory from 1966 - Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Titch with an old favourite of mine, "Hold Tight" (well, a snippet - and others) performed live in 2002!
Good to know they 'matured' well!

Oh yes the good old sixties, I spent most of the 80s in bed with Shakin Stevens, unfortunatly he wasn't there

Okay, I'm about to make a lot of you feel old! I was born in the early 70's but the song I kept playing over and over is this little ditty from Prince...Purple Rain.

With Prince, it was always "1999" for me...

I loved the song Angel sung by Elvis

My Dad was a massive Elvis fan, he had a lot of his albums, not sure what has happened to them? Being a D.J he had loads and loads of singles and albums.

I used to put on the jukebox a favourite of mine called The Oldest Swinger in Town, my husband was 18 until he reached 60 so he was not impressed :evil: :whistle:

My choice in music now varies on my mood, from classical to hip hop right across the board. Some of my favourite is motown and R&B which I play a lot.

That was sung by Fred Wedlock. I had his album "The Folker" - very funny imo.
The whole thing is on Youtube.
