Our first dance at our wedding was Foreigner “I want to know what love is” it takes me back to my wedding day every time I hear it. I remember listening to Phil Collins singing Groovy kinda love on the hospital radio 30 years ago whilst I was waiting to have my eldest daughter. That song always brings back fond memories too. A memorable holiday song is “Moves like Jagger” by Maroon 5 whilst we were travelling in my sister’s car in Cairo as it was the first time I had heard it and fell in love with that song. I always think of the fantastic blue skies and sunny climate as I hear that song on the radio now and then. Terrific giveaway incidentally, thanks for the opportunity.

"Our song" is Suicide is Painless, the theme from M*A*S*H.
When DH and I first met we would snuggle together in front of the telly every week at our local youth club to catch up with the goings on at the 4077th.

In our latest competition with Orion, we're giving you the chance to win a £100 Waitrose voucher and a copy of Greatest Hits by number one bestselling author Laura Barnett, a story about the power of reflection and how much our memories mean to us.

If you could choose just 16 moments to define your entire life, what would they be? That’s what Cass Wheeler must do. A musician born in 1950, Cass is now taking one day to select the 16 songs in her repertoire that have meant the most to her.

And behind each song lies a story - from the day her mother abandoned her, to her passionate first love, to the moment she lost everything. The dreams, the failures, the second chances.

So, what are the songs that mean the most to you, and evoke your most precious memories? Perhaps it was the first dance at your wedding, or the song repeated on the radio throughout your first holiday, or the only music that would rock your baby to sleep. Tell us in the comments below for the chance to win an £100 Waitrose voucher and a copy of Greatest Hits! We also have 25 copies of the book for runners-up.

Greatest Hits is published by W&N, an imprint of Orion, and is available online and from all good booksellers.

Please post your entries below by 11am 16 April.

Usual T&Cs apply.
