Had a moment

So I had this moment on the way home.
I was listening to the radio, and a song came on that made me say, "If that song is _not_ played for us to dance to at
havenstone's wedding, I will be sad." Cuz
havenstone loves his music to dance to, and this song I identify with him, more than any other.
Wanna guess what it was? Have at it. Wanna say which song _you_ would have said that about? Have at it. Don't know him and want to guess anyway? Have at it, what the hell.
Oh, and off topic: eye doctor visit was fine, I ordered new GPs through her for fitting, and I got a scrip for new glasses. And driving with dilated pupils was a bit fuzzy, but I fed Sienna and hung out a bit and then went home, and it was cool. Lack of sunshine helped. Yay.
So guess away!
UPDATE: Melissa N-H mailed me with her guess, which turned out to be correct! It was "Tubthumping" by Chumbawumba. She says that last hint was more than enough. Yay!

I have a few songs that do make me think of him, but he's also referred me to half my CD collection, so that sorta follows... :)

But my song reference points have switched a bit since I started playing guitar -- now I associate songs with me that I like to play, and I've forgotten lots of the ones I used to dance to.
Um. George Michael's Freedom, or Faith? (Not more recent) The Boss-Tones' Impression That I Get? (aka "I've never had to knock your mom...") Dave Matthews' Ants Marching? Or the Refreshments' Banditos? ("Your alias says you're Captain Jean-Luc Picard...") A-Ha's Take On Me? How many guesses to I get?

Okay. Here's a hint: I don't remember which it was, but this song was one I believe you had already heard in Britain during Yale in London, and either you brought it back with you, or when it got big here you already knew it.
And NO, this does NOT mean it's anything by the spice girls.

and I would walk 500 more,
just to be the man who walked a 1000 miles
to be the one beside your door."
Either that or "Walking around in Circles"

Date: 2005-10-16 01:55 am (UTC)I would have guessed it correctly, but was busy with family stuff.
The other songs I associate with havenstone are SMD's Hallelujah and "I wish I was a little bit taller." And, of course, What a Good Boy. The Duke's Men version.
