Have you got one?
I regard "Follow you, follow me" by Genesis as ours but OH keeps forgetting!

Wicked Game..by Chris Issak
Still stops me in my tracks if I hear it

My OH tells me ours is This Guy’s in love with You, Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. That’s ok by me.

When we first started going out, my now husband bought me “Ain’t no pleasing you”!! Well, we’ve been together for forty years, so i can’t have been that hard to please smile

“You are my hearts delight”. Richard Tauber. My late husband used to sing it to make sure that his hearing aid was working.

With my DCs Dad it was 'Eternal Flame' by The Bangles.
The flame went out, but we were pretty good friends after the initial heartbreak!
With my OH now it's 'Night In White Satin' by The Moody Blues.
I can't imagine us ever being in white satin but we do love the song!

Ours is a rather tongue in cheek one “I got you babe” by Sonny and Cher. Funnily enough it was one of the questions on University Challenge tonight.

I think ours was "Le métèque", by Georges Moustaki. I find it rather repellent these days. An old, ugly man lusting after a 20-year-old. Yuck.

Was he old in the 1960s?

"I had a dream".....mine let the team down, so there is no 'we.' Is that okay?

'The very thought of you; by Nat King Cole still makes me weak at the knees (and everywhere else)

Louis Armstrong - What a wonderful world 😊

Patience by Guns & Roses (had not long come out of a bad relationship so was wary) & Have I told you lately by Rod Stewart which we danced to at our wedding. Also have numerous songs that make me think of my DH.

At Last - Etta James

I met my lovely husband when I was 14 and married at 18 and he was 20. Our song was Nat King Cole 'Too Young' - which everyone told us. We had nearly 60 years befote he died.

Wonderful Tonight and Layla by Eric Clapton.

Nat King Cole singing “When I Fall in Love”. He was always singing and this was a favourite. I had it played at his funeral but a lovely version sung by the Morriston male voice choir.

There's a kind of hush all over the world by Herman's Hermits, that shows our age, 1967 it must have been.

Ours was Nights in White Satin - we danced to the Moody Blues live in the Student Union.

Help me make it through the night - Gladys Night and the Pips. Married for 9 years when he was killed in an accident…..forever young.

"In the Summertime" by Mungo Jerry. Was top of the charts for weeks in the summer of 1970 when we met. My OH had just got his first car so we did "have a drink, have a drive", often singing along to this on the car radio. My daddy wasn't rich, so we just did what we felt like, usually in the back seat.... blush

We had 2! Little old wine drinker me Dean Martin - we sang together to the cd track every time whilst in our car driving through France and Spain and You Do Something to Me Brian Ferry. Played both at his funeral. Wept buckets throughout. I still well up listening to these.

Kathmaggie Sun 01-Oct-23 18:04:27

You’re the inspiration by Chicago - second marriage. DH still sings it to me.
