I steal this from Scale Ho’s blog who happened to be PayperPost Blog of the Day. I will make a meme out of it.
Here’s how it works:
1) Go to PopCulture site
2) Pick the year you turn 18 years old
3) Get yourself nostalgic over the songs.
- Ok, if you are not yet 18yrs old, then, what do you do? Heck, grow up, kiddoes! Just joking. Crap whatever you like.
- Or if you are afraid of revealing your age, then, choose a year that you like. You can lie about it, who cares…
4) Mesmerize over those songs, write something about it. This is what I am interested to read.
5) Pass it on to five more friends.
6) Wait, there’s a catch to it. Do not delete the links of the five person you tagged. Let the list grow bigger and bigger. Meaning, 5+5+5 until someone killed it.
So here goes mine….1982.

My memories? I was with this guy who spent a lot on vinyl records. Yikes, I am that ancient? So, songs like Eye of the Tiger, Don’t you want me, Centerfold, Who can It be now were all so hot on vinyl and his kick-ass speakers.
Not forgetting those love songs like Up where we belong, Truly, Hard to say I’m sorry where we had our slow dances. Sigh….those were the days.
Now, I am tagging :
