Songs that make you...

[Radical347]

Not really for me. The only song that's associated with a memory of mine that hasn't since turned into garbage is "Such Great Heights" by The Postal Service and that's still not old enough to get nostalgic over.

Definitely anything good from my senior year in high school and freshman year in college. 1999-2000.

When I look back at songs from like 1998-2002 I just wish I was paying attention to the charts at the time. Although, it was kind of cool being somewhat oblivious.

"Mickey" makes me want to go back to the early-mid 80s when the "Friday the 13th" movies were still supposed to be scary.

[rr1981]

Almost all of the R&B hits from the early 90's when I was in elementary/middle school and thought I was grown.

A little bit off topic. but Chris, how could you buy a brand new Plymouth Acclaim in 2001? I believe 1995 was the last year for the Acclaim. Bought a brand new one myself in 1993. Loved the car until some guy clopped it.

Wow, I can't believe I never saw this post. Anyway, actually, it wasn't brand new, per se. But it was brand new to me, especially compared to the 1980 Cutlass I had been driving before. So it was a used car. I believe it was a 1993 model, like yours.
Moreover, I only had that car for two years because I kept having problems with it. It kept cutting out on me. I'd be driving along and noticed that I couldn't give the car any gas. Then, the steering column would lock up and the engine would cut out. Usually it would eventually start back up, but there were two times I had to have the thing towed. Luckily, both of those times, the car had chosen a convenient place. The first time was on State Highway 23, where I sat and waited for a cop car. The second time, I was just about two blocks from my house. Thank God I wasn't out in the middle of nowhere (as you may have guessed, I do not have a cellphone. I should probably get one.)
Anyway, now I have a 1998 Mercury Tracer. So far, it hasn't given me any problems (knock on wood!)

Does it make me old if I can still remember the times during when these were hits? Still remember that I was like "ooooh!" when Try Again was the first song to top the Hot 100 on just airplay.

[Agent Yoncé]

I feel this way about almost any Disco/Funk song I always hear. More specific songs:

No Doubt's hit album: "TRAGIC KINGDOM"
Nippy's 'So Emotional'
Yoncé's 'Crazy in Love' & 'Naughty Girl'
Madonna's 'Into The Groove'
