One of the "vote for your favorite song" polls today has "Money for Nothing" by Dire Straits. It reminded me of one of those rare "perfect moment" memories you save in your head.
Years ago, we were on a family road trip. My first husband & I were in the front & the boys (little at the time) were in the back. This song came on the radio & husband & I were rocking out, singing along. Get to the end & these tiny voices join in from behind us: "I want my ... I want my ... I want my MTV!" 🥰
