The Top Ten

Summer of 69' - Bryan Adams

One of the best songs of all time. My summer anthem.

I'll never forget the wistful, dreamy look of nostalgia in my friend's eyes as this song played in the car.
"This song, Tina..." he said, his voice cracking with emotion, "it's true. The summer of '69...those really were the best days of my life."

Strong, simple, and by far the best of all.
Photograph - Nickelback

First heard this song in college and immediately felt nostalgic. When I listen to it now, I feel nostalgic about feeling nostalgic about feeling nostalgic. What a great feeling!

Brings me back to my younger days when everything was awesome. As much as those were the glory days, you gotta create new ones, and that's what I'm gonna do!

Reminds me of my childhood and the carefree innocence that comes along with it. Love it.
Blue - Eiffel 65

Yeah, this song brings back old memories. I still remember the lyrics.

Reminds me of my childhood so much! I'm a '90s kid!

This song defined '90s Electronica!
Yellow - Coldplay

Love this song! I'm 39, remembering the good old days, back when I could be immature and goof around. This song brings back so many memories.

This song makes me think of happier times. I feel so nostalgic when I hear it!

Slow is just perfect, so nostalgic!
Somewhere I Belong - Linkin Park

Yeah! Glad that this is on the list!

Such a great song!

Love you, Chester.

This song is one of my favorite songs. It was the first band I got into, and it always reminds me of the past every time I listen to it! Amazing!

This is the most amazing song, which tells the truth of life.
Du Hast - Rammstein

The guitar riffs are somewhat memorable.
Scar Tissue - Red Hot Chili Peppers

My earliest memory of listening to a song on the radio while driving back from preschool.
Numb - Linkin Park

I remember hearing this in a lot of YouTube videos back when I first found out about YouTube. Good times.

This song is liquid nostalgia.
Take Me Home, Country Roads - John Denver

Awesome. This song always reminds me of the times in my youth I spent with my family. It just makes me feel like going back to the days when my mother used to make delicious homemade cookies.
All My Life - K-Ci & Jojo
Hey There Delilah - Plain White T's

Surprised this wasn't higher. It has a nostalgic feel to it, and it came out 13 years ago. It came on the radio yesterday, and it was the first time I'd heard it in years. I miss music like this. In 13 years, I sure as hell won't be nostalgic for whatever garbage is popular today.
Don't Matter - Akon
Take You There - Sean Kingston
Dynamite - Taio Cruz
Low - Flo Rida
We Will Rock You - Queen
Thong Song - Sisqó
Yellow Submarine - The Beatles

When I was about 6, I did a ballet performance to this song. I still remember the routine. This song makes me remember the days when I could be childish and have fun with friends long gone by now.

I remember singing this in primary school in music class. Good times.

Let's go ride in a yellow submarine.
Happy - Pharrell Williams
