What’s the song only you seem to remember?

For me it’s Dream by Forest For The Trees.
When it came out, I loved it, but it didn’t get much airtime and soon thereafter faded from memory. Produced by the same person who did Beck’s song Loser, and once you know that, you can hear each song in the other somehow. I thought it was one of the most interesting fusions I’d ever heard and wish more music had been made in that style.
The song is not on Spotify or Apple Music, I’ve only find it on YouTube (and once you’ve found something, you usually stop looking for it elsewhere).

I Know by Jude. Actually, anything from Jude. I may be the only person I know who bought his CDs. Still crank up Nobody Is Really Beautiful from time to time.

House of Pain - Sister Christian
Great song to set the mood back in the day

Sister Christian by Night Rider - we'd blast it while jumping on my best friend's trampoline in her back yard. I still remember how that felt, the sun, the exhilaration of jumping, the taste of Kool-Aid when we came in to cool off - everything.

The Maxwell House jingle. Any time I bring it up to friends they just stare at me blankly.

I got downvoted for thanking someone who gave me an award last week. People are strange when you’re a stranger.

Flowers Become Screens - Delerium
Seems whenever I mention it or ask others they have no memory of it for some reason but it’s such a great song.

"Something's Burning" by 12 Rounds
And honorable mention, because it randomly pops into my head way too often... "Where's your head at" by Basement Jaxx
LithiuMart@reddit
I remember Where's Your Head At - especially the video, which was absolutely bonkers.
KyotiKill@reddit
Yeah, lol that video sticks with ya... It lives rent free in my head

The Jayhawks - ”Blue”
pie_grrrl@reddit
I just listened to Tomorrow the Green Grass and Sound of Lies two days ago. It all started because I wanted to hear Blue.
slade797@reddit
That one is on my Spotify playlist.
Melodic_Caramel1777@reddit
Since I first heard “Blue” in ‘95, you’re the only person I’ve encountered who knows the band and song.

Accidentally Kelly Street by Frenté

About three years before this came out Figures on a Beach came out with 'Accidentally 4th Street (Gloria)'. Weird title coincidence.

I preferred Monosynth and The Girl from Rosewood Lane, but that’s also a good one. 😉

I vowed that if I never met Randy what it was like working with Taxxi. Hasn't happened yet.
