April 3rd - A song you like that makes you feel nostalgic: Big Time Rush - Music Sounds Better (feat. Mann)

 

 

When I think of this subject I think of songs that remind me of a specific place and time and this will always take me back to going to the beach and staying overnight at a beach house back in 2012. I could have honestly picked any BTR song since they were one of my personality traits for a solid year and a half :lol:

The late 2000s was a time I enjoyed and the synths in this song especially are so nostalgic!

April 3rd – A song you like that makes you feel nostalgic

 

 

Sonia y Selena - Yo Quiero Bailar

 

This reminds me so much of family holidays to Spain growing up :wub: my mum's side of the family is Spanish and my great grandma had a flat there. A local pub played a compilation on repeat, my dad asked what it was because he liked the music and this CD turned out to be Caribe 2001: El Verano Ya Llego. He subsequently bought a copy and this soundtracked many holidays to come! 'Yo Quiero Bailar' really stands out from it in particular - I even sent it to the BuzzJack Song Contest as a swerve to my more alternative style there usually and it finished top 10 *.*

Day 3:

 

 

A lot of first year of uni memories, it distinctly reflects that year where I feel I was properly growing up for the first time still learning now x

Day 3

Cranberries- Linger, this song always makes me feel nostalgic, maybe even more since Dolores passed away...

 

 

 

Yeah my parents had a Cranberries CD they often played when I was younger, so its also nostalgic to me. Then there was Dario G's nostalgic operatic trance cover of Dreams (Dream To Me) in 2001.

DAY THREE: NOSTALGIA

 

 

A song I've been trying to force into the Sunday sessions in the chart forum - but then never turned up to hear it so I let it down... but ultimately it is a song that reminds me of my childhood. I wasn't alive when this was released but my parents played this song a lot over the years when I was a child in the 80s. I love the way it builds throughout and I just have so much respect for Joan as an artist - realistically it must have been so hard to break through into the music industry during the 1970s as a black female queer artist from Birmingham who wrote her own songs, I have a lot of respect for her and it's difficult to think of anyone else who is comparable from the UK at the time. This was her biggest hit and I still love the memories it evokes in me when I hear it.

dandy*, I am not familiar with that Joan Armatrading song, her 1983 hit 'Drop The Pilot' is great though.

Sonia y Selena - Yo Quiero Bailar

Iconic choice, when I was living in Madrid last year there was this one gay club that played this every time we went :lol: definitely a camp classic!

Day 3: Growing up my parents would always play a combination of The Element of Freedom by Alicia Keys, I Am Sasha Fierce by Beyoncé, and Life in Cartoon Motion by Mika. So it has to be something from one of those, and this was definitely a favourite!

 

So many songs bring back nostalgia! But I think I have to go for the first song I ever downloaded:

 

Set the fire to the third bar is such an excellent track.

Day 3:

 

 

Could have gone with so many, but this constantly pops up in my Spotify Most Wrapped, so must be a bit of a go to old skool choice for me.

April 3rd – A song you like with a US state in the title [Challenged by Scene]

 

Thought about a few, but I thought it would be personal to me if I chose a song from the last US state I visited which was New York in 2019, and this amazing single from the then up and coming English singer Paloma Faith. It continues to be a song I play often and enjoy.

 

Paloma Faith – New York

I didn't know one of their band members had a similar look to Roy Wood!

Gotta give it to my 3 Indobros for this one. Unfortunately, it failed to chart on my personals that time. Would've been there had it been released AFTER the Shang-Chi album.
