Matchbox 20's "Real World" will always bring me back to 5th grade when I first started to get into modern music. Before that all I listened to was oldies, but around that time I started watching Vh1's Top Ten Summer Countdown and started to love bands like Matchbox 20, Goo Goo Dolls, among others. "Real World" was one of the first songs I truly ever loved.
"Only In Dreams" by Weezer takes me back to middle school.
The entire "NOW!" CD, the first one, takes me back to grade school and 5th grade. Every fucking song on that CD. I don't have it anymore. The constant nostalgia was far too much for me to bear.
"God Only Knows" by the Beach Boys takes me back to my first love. I fell for her in third grade and got rejected by her. I watched an episode of The Wonder Years where Kevin gets dumped by Winnie, and they play "God Only Knows" as he sits the long ride home on the bus. Always stuck with me. Still makes me feel all emo when I hear it.
