Groove Is in the Heart by Deee Lite

What is a song that reminds you most of a special event from when you were in high school? 

Anything by Guns n’ Roses.  I grew up in Dogtown, so there it had a pretty large white, blue collar population.  I also had a next door neighbor who was in a rock band, so he played a lot of GnR back in the day.
