"Don't You" (Forget about me) by Simple Minds.
This song was released as I was preparing to graduate from high school, and it was the theme song of the movie "Breakfast Club".
Every time I hear it now, it takes me back to confusion, rebellion and freedom of being a teenager. And I love it.

Border Song by Elton John reminds me of a special time in my life.

Great song!!
Spanning 4 decades, Elton John has probably touched countless people with his songs.

He has such a variety in his composing, a remarkable musician and poet. I will attach one more piece by him:



Your song

Your song
I believe that Bernie Taupin wrote most, if not all, of the lyrics......gave them to Elton John, who then composed the music, and together they created excellent songs.
A brilliant team.

Angel of the Morning. Gad, it’s melancholic. Juice Newton covered it even better than the version I remember on the radio in high school days. Ode to an unforgettable one-night stand . . .

her name was , um, er, uhh, Shannon. No, Shawna. Shawnee. Aww shucks ...

Another heartbreak song, Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty 😒😒😒

A great song but still makes me feel miserable, even though I got over him ... eventually.
Same song for me, but much better memories - of one of the places I've felt most at home and protected, at a time I really needed that.

I walked into the kirk nightclub and asked my future wife to dance the song was Alright Now by the Free and now 51 years later its still Alright Now.
Aw cute .... the two bright eyed, bushy tailed badgers having a bop at the disco then falling in love πŸ₯°

This post of yours is curious to me.
You joined in September, which means that we've never known each other. I've been off the site since April.
Explain please.
