Soundtrack to my life

Song Artist Meaning to me...
stir it up bob marley this is the song me and my mum listen to every summer on our boat in Greece. Reminds me of blue sea, sun, cold beer, beautiful views, whole family together...
no borders bound for birds Hessel van der Kooy Hessel is the guy who owns my local on Terschelling -the island where my family is from- and has been singing there for 30 years. This is my favourite of his songs and he's been singing it every night for as long as I can remember... Us locals tend to stay at home until he's stopped singing though...
Pida me la, and Soy Gipsy Kings Grew up with the gipsy kings and these are my favourites. Have been playing this music on many occasions, so I have many memories: again Greece on our boat, or when climbing with my family in Austria..sitting in front of a hut, watching the sun go down and listening to this
El condor pasa Simon and Garfunkel used to be on my mum and dad's 'party tape' of when they were students and I loved it from the first second I heard it (probably about 5 years old). Also listened to them on the roof of my east slope flat when I lived there over the summer of my second year.
basket case Green day (really the whole Dookie album!) reminds me of when I used to work on a dry slope in Holland and we were building snowboard jumps (wood with plastic mats on top of them). A very hot summer. Jumped of the jump and crashed very very hard to this song...
in these arms Bon Jovi secondary school crush (probably about 15 years old..we all loved him)
aserej� (ketchup song) Las Ketchup reminds me of my erasmus year in France. Was played all the time, -far too many times- wherever we went.. It drove Dave and me nuts.
Paradise by the dashboard life Meatloaf 15 years old. Me and my cousin loved this song and danced to it lots...
but I feel good Groove Armada song we played while driving into Newquay on surfing trip. remember seeing all those ridiculously small roads with hedges around them while bouncing away to this song...
