The first clear memory I have of this song is riding around with my family on a Sunday drive and this song coming on our crappy radio. I remember it was the Buick Station wagon, I remember we were driving around some wooded road, and I remember that I was probably 8. I also remember that by the end of the song I was humming along with the chorus.

It's weird how I can go ages without hearing it, yet the second those opening bars sound on the radio or in iTunes, I immediately slip into sing-along mode and stay there for the whole song.

It's like it's been carved indelibly into our brains, isn't it?
