The Soundtrack of your Life

OK, here's mine ...
"Who Wants To Live Forever?" by Queen - First time I heard this, I cried. Mind you I was drunk and emotional in that way you get after several pints.
"I Write The Songs" made famous by Barry Manilow, performed by my Dad. We played this as the last song at my Dad's funeral. The old man was a musician in his time and had recorded a few tracks over the years. My bro and I managed to get a few tracks from tape to CD in time for the funeral. Can't listen to either version now without feeling a bit bubbly.
"I Love You Baby" performed by Brak, that weird space pirate kitty from Space Ghost. It will forever be the anthem of my best friend and I. During the days of drunkeness we called our early twenties, we'd skip down Newcastle's Northumberland Street, singing this as loud as we could.
