Is there a song that you feel sums up you school days or reminds you of your school as soon as you hear it?


For me it's :

PSB - it's a sin

Weirdly (?) I love that song... my school-days? Not so much (to put it mildly). 'Interestingly' enough the song came out after I'd left school... funny old thing associations

The entire first BOSTON album. As soon as it comes on WHAM - I'm back there as a thirteen year old, rubbish headphones in place, amazed at the music.

Set The World Afire - Megadeth

Or pretty much the entire So Far, So Good, So What? album was the soundtrack to my years at school and set me up to be a life long metal fan I am now.

Ha - I still have that in clear vinyl with a TV cut out sleeve.

Probably for me I'd not say a specific track but any early Blondie /Undertones / Ramones plus also any late 70's disco like Donna Summer/Saturday Night Fever stuff.

For some reason ELO's telephone line takes me right back to revising for end of year exams. It's not even that I'm a particular fan of it, just that I heard it a lot then and rarely since.

Our old deputy head, every assembles for 5 years used to play Perry Como. Magic moments and Catch a falling star.

I heard he sadly passed away a few years ago and it reminded me of them songs. I remember leaving in year 11 and thinking I hope u never hear them songs again lol

In terms on songs that came out during school - Kanye West - Through the wire . Still remember where and when the 1st time I heard it and will always remind me of school

A bit heavy for a light hearted thread about music that reminds you of school days, but fair enough I guess!

Crikey - that's a sudden and sombre direction, for a light hearted music discussion to take!

Sorry, didn't realise it was to be light hearted!

So... I guess, either Runaway, or Twist and Shout. wink
