Scrolling through the posts wondering what the average forum member age is and also realising how poor my knowledge of music is.
Last song; blue on black - five finger death punch

I'm 60... my music tastes vary through the 60s 70s 80s ... not so much from there on as I think music took a different direction in my opinion... thats not to say I don't listen to stuff from 90s 2000s... I'm even partial to a bit of Harry Styles music etc

I'm 61 my musical taste is firmly in the heavy metal and rock genres rather than years, I'm also partial to Elvis Presley. Don't know what music Harry Styles plays but I know he went out with Olivia Wilde from House.
Anyway the Elvis thoughts reminded me of listening to Dad's record collection when I was young so the last song I listened to was :
Elevator Rock by Tommy Steele.

The song I have on repeat, in my noggin is what is living rent free in my head at the moment, so hoping it counts as last listened to is.....
A mellow cover of the Fleetwood Mac classic, The Chain by Kerala Dust....

I just listened to Zakk Wylde playing No More Tears on YouTube. Absolutely stonking guitar playing, incredible solo, and the whole thing capped off by an immensely tense game of "will-he/won't-he pick up the slide bar in time" between each riff. Awesome.Just a bit of fun to help find out a little more about your fellow Elgrand'ers!

This years' record Store Day list is out, and that has prompted me to re-listen to:
99 Luftballons by Nena
That is the song that takes me back to a time, to a place, to a group of friends.... possibly the last new song I heard before the positivity of youth began to be eroded by the reality of life.
Cracking song, and pity that over here (in the UK) Nena was only recognised for the English version. She has some excellent tunes and, for my German speaking friends, In Meinem Leben is so so beautiful.

I remember this more than I remember the song.
That's what keeps me hooked on certain songs too. Some of them definitely remind me of a certain time in life or experience and it's nice to have that all come flooding back with just the first couple notes of a song.
