When I was hang gliding, EVERY TIME I was at launch waiting for the wind to turn to my favor, Tom Petty's "Waiting is the Hardest Part" ran through my head.
Whenever I hear it now I go back to HG memories.

Oh yeah...every time I hop into the race car I hear ~THIS~
For obvious reasons. 
Neil Young's Sugar Mountain off of Live Rust was playing on cassette in my Chevette when I put it on its side in HS. Took me a little while to listen to that one again.
Zeppelin's The Rover takes me back to the Malibu that replaced the Chevette and the 6x9 Jensens I installed in the package shelf.
Journey's Feeling that Way for the first time my wife and I danced together.
Primus' Jerry Was a Racecar Driver to senior week and torturing my buddy with the song. His mistake was telling us he hated the song. I bought the cassette that evening...
Plain White T's Delilah was playing on the radio at the vet's the day we put our dog down. That's still a tough one to hear. Mr. Bojangles makes me think of him too. Crazy Train is the current dog's theme.
At work we have a pond with a fountain out front. With the heat and geese the pond has turned green, with green water spurting out of the fountain. The Beach Boys Don't Go In the Water was playing on the satellite radio as I was driving past the pond.

Its the diner that is right on 41, just south of 137. I'm in Libertyville, and everybody within a 15 mile radius ends up there because its pretty good food for cheap, and the best part, open 24 hours. I think I've seen a sign in there that it opened in the early 70's, and the owner's age would agree with that, so it might have been after you were there.

Yep. I always have a song in my head, so I relate almost every event in life to a song.
My life has a pretty long soundtrack.

to bad I missed it.... there were a couple of places right outside the gate that actually served a decent meal without trying to rip off the sailors,though I spent most of my weekends in Milwaukee
