"I Want to Hold Your Hand" by the Beatles. That was from the firstrecord(as in 12" vinyl)my Dad ever bought me. It was from his era, but they become my favorite band of all time.

 

The Outfield, KISSand Bad company are my "bring me back" songs

 

Any Candlebox or Collective Soul stuff takes me straight back to my 16th summer...

Oh the memories...

These were a bit later but still do it for me...

GooGoo Dolls - Name

Bush - Machine Head, Everything Zen, Glycerin... pretty much anything Bush

 

The great thing abotu music is that you can really relive the moment as if it just happened, the sights the smell..everything. Black betty by Ram Jam not spider bait is when i got my XR200R.

 

I Love this one, the high notes still send shivers down me...

I saw them in a 90's video and still sound amazing as one of the comments says...

"This guy's voice is still utterly remarkable.!
Who else from the '60;s still has -even remotely- the quality and distincive tones
they had way back then.???This singer has
crossed the threshold from the screaming '60's
to live and still sing "the tale".

 

it only takes me back like 5 years but "hey ya" by Outkast... those were good times... I have it as my ringtone from time to time (it is right now)
