A favourite or classic song.
Born to Run: UBC bowling alley, played on CFUN. The DJ described it as "Martha and the Vandellas meet Phil Spector." (?) My GF, soon to be wife, looked at thespeaker in the ceiling and dropped her ball, missing on my toe by a gnat's whisker. "Who is THAT!" we said in unison.
Please, Please, Me. Barnwell S.M., Friday lunchtime dance. Babs Wheeler brought in a brand new copy. Generally we pooh-pooh'd British acts, but we'd given Love Me Do a reluctant nod, and Babs had impeccable taste (plus we three boys fancied her like crazy), so she would always get the benefit of the doubt. None of us had heard anything remotely like it before.
