I remember my dad listening to these songs when I was really young, they remind me of my childhood. I've always found them very haunting...

This song doesn't make me particular nostalgic, but it is about nostalgia and I like it very much: Frank Zappa, Joe's Garage

In addition to various cartoon themes (way too many to list) there are also a bunch of songs by N Sync, Backstreet Boys, and (pre-Fed) Britney Spears that remind me of my early childhood (under 10). Then Simple and Clean - Utada Hikaru takes over the pre-teen years, while the theme to San Andreas took up a good chunk of my early teenage years.

*sigh* Nostalgia, maaan.

Lots of things! I connect/identify strongly with music so if I happen to listen to something that I used to jam constantly years ago, it definitely puts me in a certain headspace and recalls memories of things happening around that time. This happens to me a good bit because I tend to not digest a band or artist's entire discography at once but in bits at a time, often years apart, so when I return to their work it includes not only the stuff that I'm less familiar with but the classics as well. A month or two ago, I was doing that with Premiata Forneria Marconi, today it's Allan Holdsworth.

Steriogram

I just noticed the link box doesn't give you the option to "name" a link anymore (well, I guess the change happened with the last big forum overhaul). Some of you are doing it though. Care to share how?

foo fighters and creed, i always listened to them growing up

I really do get tired of indicating how old I feel sometimes:

Jeffredo...

Type this:

[u rl= http://www...blahblahlblah. com]My favorite song[ /u rl]

No spaces allowed except for in the 'name' etc....Note the brackets...and the single forward slash near the end. Hope that's clear. Works for me.
I've always done it this way and never knew about the link button.

I'm only a 93 model so I'm young enough to claim http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DORtFo2MAE0 as being a nostalgic song for me, but I'll name and then link a few others.

A lot of old Icelandic music that probably doesn't serve as nostalgia inducing for anyone not on this island

Don't ask me why this music was a part of my childhood... I remember my peers from my childhood having music from disney movies, cartoons and other such content for children while my parents had me listening to what was popular with the advlts a good five or more years before my birth.

A lot of Offspring

He can also just first write the title, then highlight the words he choose for his title and then press the link button and paste his link and press okay.

Highlight the text you want as the name and click the link button.

Edit: Aquan's method also works.

Thanks for the tips on how to do that you guys!

Crowded House does it for me. Jarringly so. First few notes shoots me back 20 years.

Here's a song that made me feel nostalgic the first time I heard it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB2-RW-YYqQ&hd=1, by Mercury Rev.

The old Starcraft soundtrack.

Grunge music in general makes quite nostalgic.

I spent my teens growing up in the 1980s. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQoYeMAS5qo really gives me such a massive feeling of nostalgia for those years. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_Yx0X-eHn8 reminds me of my school discos, as does http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqz0mMtQX_c , which was one of the tunes that you'd try to grab a girl and get a snog when it played :biggrin:
