Music is one of those things that seems to really move people.

It can change your mood, change your emotional state, and help sear memories into your mind for ages.


Twitter is encouraging people to share some of those memories with the popular hashtag #MusicMemoriesFromChildhood and it's honestly been a fun little walk down memory lane for a lot of people.

Personally, we've got tons of memories bouncing around the office as we work on this piece. One of us recalls sitting in the back seat of her car while her parents playfully sang Debarge's "I Like It" to one another.

Unsurprisingly, it's still one of her favorite songs. Another can't help but smile when Boston's "More Than A Feeling" comes on; memories of an old friend creep up every time.

Barbara Streisand is permanently banned in one person's home because his mother used to obsessively play her records from beginning to end on repeat - he's had enough Streisand for several lifetimes.

Twitter's memories are as varied as ours are, but first let's look at the original post.

Music memories from childhood is a simple enough request - but the replies ranged from happy to heartbreaking and everything in between.







(Dear Cool Chris,

We were - and still are - terrified of this theme music, too! Whenever we watch re-runs, which is often, we scramble for the mute button every time the theme starts. The idea of the upcoming reboot is horrifyingly delicious. We feel you, homie.)


We now return you to your regularly scheduled article, already in progress. Back to the music memories, folks!








We want to know what your childhood music memories are, so share them in the comments!

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
