Music Associations

I was listening to the radio yesterday and the song 'Sweet Emotion' by Aerosmith came on. Every time I hear that song it reminds me of the Mary Catherine Gallagher skit on Saturday Night Live back in the day. It got me thinking of all the songs that make me think of something specific every time I hear them. Here is my 'Music Association' playlist:

1. Foxy Lady by Jimi Hendrix: The scene in Wayne's World where Garth starts dancing in the diner
2. Stairway to Heaven by Led Zepplin: Reminds me of high school dances where you slow dance with a guy at the beginning and then can't decide whether to continue once the song gets faster.
3. Time of your Life by Green Day: The last episode of Seinfeld
4. Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen: Also a scene in Wayne's World where they are singing it in the Dodge Colt (or whatever that crap blue car was)
5. Your Song by Elton John: My wedding song
6. Joker by Steve Miller Band: Bus rides to swim meets in high school where we would all sing along with hand actions too :-)

I am sure there are others but that is the top six for now.
