Every Tuesday, we dedicate this segment to the songs that bring you right back to a very specific time in your life - first love, exams, moving out from home, backpacking around the world, nights out, nights in, going to college, bad jobs, falling in love, falling out of love, weddings and babies.
For coming on the show and sharing your Milestone Music Moment, we'll send you a lovely momento of your story. You will receive all the elements of the tale - the date, lyrics of the song and more, all on a beautifully finished poster for you to treasure.
This week's Milestone was brought to us by Anna White in Co. Louth, with a track that transports her back to a super sweaty, poky venue in the West Midlands back in 2003, every time she hears it.
Her then boyfriend was finishing off a course in Wolverhampton University, so she had to move over and start afresh. Her living conditions were not ideal, as she was working in a bank, yet piled into a student house with himself, but the music scene was hopping.
They decided to go to a gig one evening, only to find out it was the brilliant Bell X1. As Paul Noonan played a certain song on his improvised guitar arrangement, and the lyrics started to resonate, her then situation, and previous college years, was suddenly amplified.
The track was "Alphabet Soup", and was the one that started her affinity for the band, and always makes her smile. There's that one line which sticks out in her head though...
Listen to her memorable moment in full here:
If you've a milestone of your own, we'd love to hear all about it. Email your story to breakfast@todayfm.com
