I had a lot of trouble thinking of a song that makes me think of a certain event. The more I thought about it, the more my mind kept going back to concerts. Concerts are probably not events in the meaning of what this particular category is referring to, but all the big events in my life that I could think of don’t really have songs linked to them other than concerts. Still, this song is locked into my memory as linked to this particular concert.
I saw Martha & the Muffins (who I think were calling themselves Martha & the Muffins a/k/a M+M at the time) at the Channel in the mid-80’s. I was excited to see this Canadian band that I loved so much, and I couldn’t really imagine what they would sound like live. When they took the stage and performed their opening song, it just blew me away. They sounded incredible. They looked incredible. I can vividly remember how excited I was and thinking they were just the epitome of all things Canadian (which to me was a great thing.) They’re opening number remains one of my favorite all-time songs. So hear it is, the video of the Martha & the Muffins song, Danseparc (Every Day It’s Tomorrow), which is one of the coollest songs and videos ever.
