Memory Song

~~legsmcneil~~ · 06-12-2006, 12:57 PM

I'm curious as to what is everyone's favorite song is that is a good memory of something. I don't know if this thread has been started yet, so I'll start. Mine would have to be "King Harvest" by THE BAND. I've known that song since I was born, really. My parents would play the brown album all the time, and I was hooked ever since. How about you guys?

My memorable song is "Running on Empty" by Jackson Brown.

My dad and I were at my grandmother's once and we were driving down a dirt road in my aunt's POS truck (it is her old truck that she just recently sold). All of a sudden it quit because the radiator blew or something like that. The song Running, well the phrase "Running on Empty" was the last thing we heard afore it quit

Ironically enough, it would be Pink Floyd The Wall. My dad chaperoned a group of us to The Ohio State University for a field trip in the 7th grade. It's 1982 and he has his 1978 Chevrolet Caprice Classic with me and some of my friends just blasting the song away. My one buddy still talks about it whenever we chat. He asked me how I liked having my grandparents staying with us at the time and my dad told him "It's a real kick in the *****", only he didn't say *****.

hmmm..."Amazed" by Lonestar. It was the first song that I heard on my first date with my wife (obviously not wife at that time) that had meaning behind it. Then I kinda ruined it in a way because during our dating and engagement, I used to watch old Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton movies with the sound turned down (i got annoyed by the origional score) and a play list on my computer playing. This was one of the songs on the play list so now when I hear it I think of my wife, but see Buster Keaton hanging onto a railroad crossing bar (the things that go down when a train comes and up when its leaves) and getting lowered into the back of a car that is driving by.....kinda weird, I know.
