I had to go with Pink Floyd. (I was also suprised not to see either Wish You Were Here or Comfortably Numb.) I think I spent the majority of 1980 listening to those two Floyd songs along with Childhood's End.

My oldest friend in the world is a man I met in Kindergarten.  He and I have been through thick and thin in our lives, as exemplified by Jason Statham (Snatch) saying "I try to keep him out of as much trouble as he inflicts on me."  I was telling my son that when you find a friend like that, to hang on to that person forever.  He asked "What kind of friend is that?"  I replied that if one of us was ever in jail in Nogales, MX, the other would do whatever they had to do to get the person out. 

I hear the song "Wish you were here" and get goosebumps, and it is always thinking about this friend of mine.  I know that we are two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year.

Absolutely. There are acquaintences and then there are friends. There's a difference. One would go to Nogales and either attempt to bail you out or end up in the cell next to you attempting to do so. The other would laugh about the story of it all with you after it was all said and done.

Those songs are a bit more melancholy for me. My father died that year and those three songs invoked a depth of solace and sorrow within me during that time. They were my comfort. I just wanted to be...comfortably numb. I played them so much I ended up being nicknamed Pink all through HS. Of course the fact that I had pink hair for quite alot of that time didn't hurt either. To this day I can't hear any of the three without tearing up and thinking of my dad.

Level...thanks for the memories.

I had the same thing happen to me with my ex husband and after awhile, I learned to hate Pink Floyd immensely.  He would turn up the volume pretty loud, have his beer and stare off into space...thinking he was God.  I guess that is why I divorced him.
