Songs and memories - Write a short text about a song that is important for you. Maybe because it introduced you to music you are really into; maybe because it caused a deep impression on you; maybe because it accompanied you through bad moments.... And, if possible, include a youtube video or a spotify link to the song. by Newton Hoenikker

Even if it's difficult for me to say what kind of music I like because I've always been very eclectic and my taste is evolving all the time, I can say that, without a shadow of a doubt, Radiohead has always been one of my favourite bands (perhaps my favourite band). This song takes me back to the late 90s, when I had just started working in a foreign land and felt lonely sometimes. It's a bit depressing, and maybe that's why I insisted on playing it over and over again. I found it somehow comforting

Perhaps, this is not the most beautiful song in the world, but is the first song my wife and I danced to when I meet her (in a time when the couples dance at disco), and ever since it’s been “our song”. It was a very romantic moment and we have a very good memory of it. It’s so special that whenever a radio station plays it we change the dial so we don’t at that moment, is only for very special moments (anniversaries or something like that).

“Born to run” is a song that reminds me my teenage days, the summers on the beach and the good times with friends. That time when feelings like rebellion, unity with friends and freedom were the main things in your life and when you are full of energy and desire to do new things. The song tells us about the American dream, love and life in a big city and the desire to escape from it in a car with the girl you love, to adventure.

I really like Bruce Springsteen, his figure, his story, the power of his songs, what they tell us and the feeling and energy he puts into his concerts.

This song brings back memories of the better trip of my life. I went to London with my high school, in the last year. We went to watch the musical of Moulin Rouge, and this songs and others reminds me full at this moment of my life, but this in concrete more. I love this song and definitily, I would pay anything for go back on that trip.

"Brothers in arms". This song was written by Dire Straits, a British rock band, in 1985. They were famous all over the world. This song makes me happy and sad at the same time, and I really love the melody and the lyrics. My favourite paragraph is "There´s so many different worlds, so many differents suns, And we have just one world, But we live in different ones". I have listened to it a lot of times and I don´t get tired to do that. Maybe you will think it is an unfashinable song, but I find it amazing.

I hope you enjoy it.

"Morriña" is a song that reminds me of my childhood when my grandfather used to tell stories about his land. Nowadays, I am living in Galicia and I understand that feeling that my grandpa expressed all the time. Today, I am dreaming of traveling to Argentina and feeling again my family and my friends and walking through my city. The song tells us about the feeling that Galician people had to travel to South America to look for new opportunities to survive. I love this song because it connects me with my family history.
