So I am listening to the Crystals "Then he kissed me: and it just sums up the romanticism of the era. So what are songs that illustrate an era for you?
Buffalo Springfield "For What Its Worth" vietnam era
Flock of Seagulls "I Ran" the 80s -Men without Hats "We can dance" (especially the fair video!)
Bee Gees "Stayin Alive" 70s disco
Add to the list, curious what songs immediately take you to a time in your head

Teen spirit- it is "The" grunge song

Smokey is 1960s even though the song is almost an 80s song. I envision surf boards and beaches.
Teen spirit as far as a sound, not the lyrical drivel.

'White Rabbit' just screams late 60's, (even if I wasn't there)
Perhaps doubt is not the right word. A denial? Oh well, whatever.
