Re: which song gets you thinking about childhood

Music triggers so many memories for me.

TV themes always take me back. So to get to my childhood I'd need to hear:
Batman (original)
Swapshop
Magpie
Thames Televison theme
Blue Peter
Scooby Doo
Hong Kong Fuey
Rainbow
Rupert Bear
Why Don't You
And so many more !

Songs that take me back are:
Goldfinger
Band on the Run - Wings
Right Back where we started - Maxine Nightingale
Sugar Baby Love - The Rubettes
There's a whole lot of lovin' going on - Guys and Dolls
Video Killed the radio star - The Buggles (Of course !)
Avenues & Alleyways - Tony Christie
Babe - Styxx
Popcorn - (original, not the crazy frog version)
Never let her slip away - Ander Gold
and loads more.


This is all pre-teen stuff, so I could write another list for teenage memory music.

Happy dayz

When I first started going to pubs when I was ahem! 18 , it was constantly 'Babe-Styxx' and 'Fat Larry's Band-Zoom', on the jukebox............ahhhh! chicken in a basket with chips, some cockles, a War Cry and great music!

For me it's This used to be my playground by Madonna.

Even though I was an adult when this was released, every time I hear this it transports me back to my childhood.

Here's a few of mine:

Re: which song gets you thinking about childhood

Im just new here so hi everyone. I must be really old as a lot of the songs which have been mentioned dont seem that long ago ha ! Songs which take me back include - elusive butterfly, tap turns on the water, sugar sugar, the black eyed boys, leader of the pack, goodbye to love and my favourite all was - Little green apples by Roger Miller - heres a few lines for ya -

And i wake up in the morning with my hair down in my eyes and she says hi
And i stumble to the breakfast table while the kids are going off to school, goodbye.
And she reaches out and takes my hand and squeezes it and says how you feeling hon?
And i look across at smiling lips that warm my heart, and see my morning sun.

This I think is one of the first records I remember taking any notice of when I was very young.......
