9# Spice Girls - Wannabe - reminds me of primary school and youth and dancing without a care in the world, and also of my friends because we made a hilarious video over it :tongue:

7# Orson - No Tomorrow - Came out at the height of my life...so many good memories dancing and singing to this at house parties and days out :) Plus was mine and a girl's own "song", lol.
6# Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy - My favourite song ever, yet hasn't had a massive impact on my life. It just helps me to relax and calm down. Click here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1svI-owtWA)
5# Scissor Sisters - I Don't Feel Like Dancin' - The only concert I've ever been to was during a 2-day trip to London with my 4 best friends for one of their birthdays. Was a great weekend and the performance was amazing. :bigsmile:
4# Hanson - Mmmbop - Was the last song played at the leavers' party of my primary school. I miss primary school, lmao.

2# Meredith Brooks - I'm A Bitch - Year nine was my favourite year at school, because we went to Germany...and I remember my group of friends would always be playing this song and singing along. Clicky. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRqoIHZpWUU)

Mine are in no particular order, song titles link to youtube
1. The Killers - Mr. Brightside (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnwLf88t_Wc)
This is my favourite song and has been for aaaaaaaages (its still my ringtone LOL), but yeah it reminds me of good times :spin2:
2. Uniting Nations- Out Of Touch (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCQAG1lbfZg)
Possibly my favourite songs ever, reminds me of some good times and its mine and my girlfriends song lol
3. Thirteen Senses- Into the Fire (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-4dWj4nfsU)
Quite a big song for me, always loved it, used in CBB4 best bits (my favourite series, yes I'm that sad to remember) but more importantly to me it was played at my best friends funeral last year
4. Whitney Houston- One Moment in Time (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7BOo_yhYdQ)
OK I don't like the song but it was one of my nanas favourites, she always used to sing it to us when we were little. It was played by her graveside as well
5. Celine Dion- The Power of Love (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ee3iuhJaA6A)
Absolutely hate this song but its significant to me, my mum always used to her when we were growing up (and still does) but this is her favourite

Reminds me of my last year or so at school
8. Tina Turner- Simply the Best (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIrCFrFpHvw)
LOL. This song has to have some kind of meaning to everyone. I don't particularly like it but it was the last song played at the school leavers which one of my friends actually sung, another song that was overplayed when I was growing up, used in TV quite a lot over the years etc
9. Eifel 65- I'm Blue (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H25lz7gchaw)
It reminds me of the 90's:joker:
10. Energy 52- Cafe del Mar (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-T9U0kDfNk)
That sums up quite a few summers for me :spin2: The song is a lot longer than that clip though, thats just the main bit without all the build up
That was so hard, its took me 45 minutes to do because I could list off another 10 songs easily!
