It is amazing how songs/music can have the ability, in an instance, to transport us to a time in our past, that we have completely forgotten about.
When checking out some music on Youtube I stumbled across this song "Coco Jambo" by Mr President http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY-oMCmrvPM and remembered a great moment from a holiday to Port Macquarie with an ex. We were driving back to our motel and came to a roundabout and I turned the wrong way, we ended up driving through an industrial area, it was late at night, dark, we had the windows down, I could smell the salt in the air, the car was a Mitsubishi Mirage, we had had a fantastic day and this was the song on the radio, which I was singing out loud. It was such a great holiday in one of my fav towns and I just love that something like a song can make me remember so much.
So where do you go to when you hear a certain song? Do some of the choices in our October Challenge take you out of yourself? We would love to know. Cheers Annette x

This is the stuff that memories are made of.
I think of certain songs from when i was young and clubbing with my friends. They are still played today albeit not as much, but it takes me back there every time i hear them !
