One song that genuinely changed your life

Wanted Dead or Alive - Bon Jovi.


I remember sitting on a ferry, just leaving Portsmouth heading for Cherbourg, watching the docks slowly disappear whilst this song was on my walkman. I was about to bugger off for a few weeks, which turned into a year and a bit, back packing around Europe and I felt the songs lyrics captured the moment.
Similar ferry story, went to Spain for the 82 World Cup on a 3 week trip but the violence from the Argentinian and Spanish fans against the English was unbearable, everywhere we went we were getting knives pulled on us or getting tear gassed, so me and a mate decided to get a ferry from Barcelona to Majorca for a week to get away from it
Had a great week and on the ferry back we were sunbathing on the deck and someone had a 'ghetto blaster' when ''Homeward Bound'' by Simon and Garfunkel came on, everybody was singing along and it made me realise that my 3 weeks away from Blighty was coming to an end, I still think of that ferry trip when I hear that song even today

For me it was 'Room for the Life' by Kate Bush.
Without going into too much detail I was 17 and I played it one night when I was, with hindsight, at a crossroads in my life.
Completely turned my life around.

Grew up on that cack.

One song which changed my life was Emperor - Curse you all men! From an Earache label sampler back in the 90s which I picked up for about £3. This was the moment I found true extreme metal from my previous years of listening to punk and new wave.

I'll have you know that it was me who got you listening to the Sex Pistols! ;-)
