Cool thread.  I'm sure everyone has a special song or songs with their significant other, and my wife and I have several of those, but one song on the request list reminds me of another woman (don't tell my wife!).

It's 'Groovy Kind of Love' by Phil Collins.  It reminds me of my high school senior year girlfriend and prom date.  It was our song.  I'd say she is the second best woman I ever dated, my wife being by far the best of course!  Every time I hear that song I just stop dead and listen.  It reminds me of a simpler time I guess.  I also think it is a great remake, much better than the original version.  Anyway, my wife doesn't even know this, so this is the Community Forum's dirty little secret!

Oh God...It's a good memory, but seems very awkward now that I think about it & am putting it into words...when I was younger, my Dad was taking my friend Colin & I to our first Major League baseball game & it was at Yankee Stadium ( I used to live in Jersey). We were both so excited, we had spent all day swimming at the pool, and then got dressed for a night game...we were both so full of soda & sugar we couldn't stop bouncing around in our seats in the car. Then Jermaine Stewart's "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off" came over the radio, & Colin & I started screaming out the lyrics (much to the embarassment of my dad who was driving). We screamed out about 12 different songs on the way to the Ballpark, but that was the one I remember most. It was an awesome night. The Yankees won, & my friend & I passed out minutes after we got in the car to go home. Everytime I hear that song, I remember that night with my best friend & my first Baseball game, even if the lyrics themselves have no real meaning.

There is another song that has a similar type meaning. The song itself doesn't mean anything, but the memory it conjures up is very vivid. Lionel Richie's "Dancing on the Ceiling". My dad was coming home from the airport, & my mom had to pick him up from Newark International ( ironically you had to take alot of the same streets to get there as you do to YAnkee stadium coming from NW NJ, so the memories are actually from a similiar stretch of highway) My mom had to bring my sister & I along, because we were too young to stay home alone, & it was well after 1AM. I don't know why it's such a vivid memory, maybe it was because we were so young & staying up so late, But everytime I hear that song, I think about going to the airport...not really a heartwarming story, but a strong memory from a more innocent time for me.

*edit* Oh Man, I just heard Joe jackson's "Steppin out" & this is another song, along with the linoel richie song that I think of as Airport Songs because of that night...I even remember the building we were passing when it was playing ( the Valley Fair shopping center) *god that was 15-18 years ago...I remember it so well...ah memories*edit*

Star, I started a thread a while back about karaoke!

I've done this song a few times, but mostly I'm a crooner.

Elvis etc.
