    My own happy song is The Sweetest Thing by U2. On the day my consultant told me the result of my biopsy was benign, I got into the car and this song was on the radio. The sun was beaming down, and it was one of the best days of my life.

    Lion King soundtrack used to be my go-to - now it's Carbon Based Lifeforms "Waves of Wonder" (which is weird, because I'm not usuaully into electronic music...)

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Which one did you play when you hopped on your Honda 50 after quitting that job just before you were about to get a pay rise?

    Wasn't a rise, it was a bonus, and I was driving a six month old Superb at the time.

    Was testing a new sound system that day, so it was probably this, best song for testing soundproofing btw

    Ludovico Einaudi - I Giorni

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rmj3iU36Mmw

    Loved it since I first heard it years ago and I guess it brings back good memories!

    It's used in all sorts of things now but once I hear one note from it I'll recognise it and smile straight away. There isn't many things that can do that so I choose this song for that reason.
