The '80s Mixtape Playing in My Head

Yes, I'm a product of the '80s. The music especially keeps bubbling up.

*If, in a body prayer to the four directions, the instructions include "Now face west", I will be transported to REM's "Stand."

*In any meeting where "liaisons" are mentioned, I head to Mr. Mister's "Kyrie."
Lord, have mercy.
(I didn't see Dangerous Liaisons until much later, for better or for worse.)

*Bloody Sunday puts me to U2 before Selma.

My fellow Gen-Xers, I'm sure I'm not the only one with such musical neural pathways--what's in your wiring?

Folks of other generations, what sparks your neurons?
