Soundtrack To My Life - Lynn
Soundtrack To My Life visits another of my friends from "that parenting forum I used to frequent back in the day" that I keep mentioning. Thanks to Facebook we manage to keep in touch but I have watched her journey through marriage break-up, to single woman and then into a new and better relationship. Lynn's Soundtrack to My Life tells that story really well - and I just knew that Mr Brightside would be in there somewhere!

Oh, how grown up we thought we were. If only we knew back then how easy life was being 15!
I knew on the morning of my wedding it wasn't right, I sat on the step at my mum's at 6am with £100 in my purse, I should have ran when I had the chance!
It was our first dance and our last dance together. Every time I hear it I don't feel sad.I feel relieved I'm not in that relationship anymore!
One of my best memories is going to Manchester to see The Killers live. It was a day that will stick with me forever!
Karen now lives in Oz, but that song will always remind me of her. She is, and always will be, my best friend. After all, we know too much about each other not to be!
Our first weekend away we went to see Paloma and I stood and smiled when this song came on. I knew that I had come a long way on my own bringing up two girls and now I could do it with my best friend and husband-to-be by my side.
The words to the song were so true. At last, my love has come along and lonely days are over....

REM - Man On The Moon
This takes me to a trip to Alton Towers with youth club, on a minibus smoking out of the window.Oh, how grown up we thought we were. If only we knew back then how easy life was being 15!
Robbie Williams - Angels
This song was my first dance to a man I married at 19.I knew on the morning of my wedding it wasn't right, I sat on the step at my mum's at 6am with £100 in my purse, I should have ran when I had the chance!
It was our first dance and our last dance together. Every time I hear it I don't feel sad.I feel relieved I'm not in that relationship anymore!
The Killers - Mr Brightside
When I was newly single, my best friend Karen was always there for me. We relived our youth going out when we had the chance watching live bands - our best song was Mr Brightside.One of my best memories is going to Manchester to see The Killers live. It was a day that will stick with me forever!
Karen now lives in Oz, but that song will always remind me of her. She is, and always will be, my best friend. After all, we know too much about each other not to be!
Paloma Faith - New York
This is the song that made me realise I was a strong woman who could make it on her own. I got myself a job I enjoyed and made so many new friends, was happy in life and met a very special man.Our first weekend away we went to see Paloma and I stood and smiled when this song came on. I knew that I had come a long way on my own bringing up two girls and now I could do it with my best friend and husband-to-be by my side.
Etta James - At Last
Ste and I danced to this when we got blessed. It was the most amazing day with the people that matter the most.The words to the song were so true. At last, my love has come along and lonely days are over....
