[xray-specs]

This year "Happiness" Goldfrapp

[hughesey2]

Yep, it really is that simple

[ollyh]

Same for me with Elbow, the One Day Like This singalong and their opening song Starlings always takes me back there, both such beautiful and memorable songs, shame I can't properly remember the rest of their set, I didn't really know them before Glastonbury but I certainly do now.

Few other songs that take me back, Knocked Up by Kings of Leon, Soul on Fire by Spritualised and Fake Empire by The National.

[Al the CAT]

Groove Armada - Superstylin' I think for me - Other stage this year, Sunday night, weekend coming to an end, and this drops and you're straight back up fer it, and like someone else said above, going mental with thousands of friends

[clockworkpurple]

KT Tunstall - Suddenly I See

good solid cheesy pop! my mate and i were singing it whilst wandering round the fest and it'll always remind me of that

[Langdale Wolf]

Another vote for 'One Day Like This' - a song that EVERYONE seems to like - because it's totally ruddy beautiful. Roll on October so I get to see them again in Wolverhampton. I don't think I've taken that song off my mp3 player since I first bought The Seldom Seen Kid all those months ago, and whenever I hear it, I see the sun, I see the flags, I see the smiles and I see Guy's sunburnt face!

Also, Buddy Guy covering Mustang Sally was VERY special.

[The Nal]

"Chime" by Orbital does it for me.

[alframsey]

On Call-kings of leon

or

Sweet Caroline-neil diamond!

"Because the Night/The Pan Within" - Waterboys, 1986

"God's Comic" - Elvis Costello, balmy sunner's night in 1989

"This is the Sea/Ragman" - Deacon Blue, 1990 (plus the Cure on Saturday night, with the helicopter having to descend to take a girl to hospital who'd been crushed against the barriers at the front).

James opening with a Morrissey song in 1992 (they were a late minute replacement for the king of misery)

"Stagger Lee" - Nick Cave, 1998 (for it's gratuitously offensive lyrics on a Sunday afternoon!!)

"Let's Stay Together" - Al Green, 1999.

"Starman" - David Bowie in 2000

"Money" with the amazing "surround sound" effects - Roger Waters in 2002

"Hallejujah" - Leonard Cohen in 2008

For some reason don't seem to remember much from the mid-90s.

Hot Chip - Ready For The Floor, I think it really defines night time Glastonbury 2008, daytime goes to Walcott by Vampire Weekend (when they did it in the John Peel tent)

Superstylin - Groove Armada.

I loved every moment of that set but just bouncing away to Superstylin made me so happy.... and now I just help but bounce away everytime I hear it.

Only knew their single Not 19... when I saw them in John Peel, and listening to their album weeks later this song took me right back there
