My cousin Stephanie made a comment on my last post about how the song Love Shack reminded her of a certain someone doing cartwheels in a dress when we were in grade school. I won't mention who that was. Her comment lead me to think about other songs from my youth...Can't wait to hear yours!
1. Mony Mony, Billy Idol (Steph & I danced to this song at every family wedding!)
2. I'm Too Sexy, Right Said Fred
3. Take My Breath Away, Berlin (This was my "song" with a jr. high boyfriend)
4. One Moment in Time, Whitney Houston
5. Celebration, Kool and the Gang (Another one Steph & I always danced to)
6. YMCA, Village People
7. Vogue, Madonna
8. Like a Prayer, Madonna (Danni introduced me to Madonna with this song!)
9. Lost in Your Eyes, Debbie Gibson
10. Cold-Hearted Snake, Paula Abdul
11. Opposites Attract, Paula Abdul (Steph, I won't embarrass us both with the memories of this one, but it involves a broom, us singing, and choreographing to this song in Cedarville. Whadyaknow, I did embarrass us with the memory!)
12. Need You Tonight, INXS
13. Beat It, Michael Jackson
14. Footloose, Kenny Loggins
15. Borderline, Madonna (This song was on some horrible movie I watched as a kid in which a bunch of teenagers got caught on a raft while an oil-slick-like monster gradually sucked them all into the water and killed them. I'm still freaked out every time I hear this song.)
16. Physical, Olivia Newton John
17. Listen to Your Heart, Roxette
18. Wild, Wild West, Escape Club (One year my baby-sitter's nephew missed the bus because he requested this song from 104.5 and refused to leave the house until they played it. Shelly was pissed!)
19. Enter Sandman, Metallica (I had a crush on another baby-sitter's brother who was like 4 years older than me. He introduced me to rock and I've been hooked ever since! I think his name was Corey Oligny.)
20. All songs on Use Your Illusion I & II, Guns N' Roses (Derick Dewey and I used to talk on the phone ALL THE TIME and listen to these tapes. He memorized my old phone number by saying 9-3-7-Five-Eleven-Seven.)
I know there are TONS more, but these are the ones that came to mind first...and I'm supposed to be doing homework. Guess I should quit messing around and do it. But now Paula Abdul is stuck in my head... "He's a cold hearted sna-ake, look into his eyes, uh ohhh, he's been tellin lies..."

The movie with the kids stuck on a raft wouldn't have been Creepshow 2 would it? I loved that movie, back in my scary movie days (high school). I don't remember that song being in it or not, but your description sounds like CS2.
Can't wait to make my list...but I'll have to. Thanks for posting Mel, that was fun!
