Inspired by MeanGreens thread about music you have fallen out of love with over the years, I pose the reverse of the question, any music that you have found again after not listening to anything by the band/artist in many a year.

The reason I've raised this is because I have found several songs randomly connected to an old fave game recently. Songs I had totally forgotten about in general, not hearing them for at least ten years and due to a search for a Soundgarden song found them all again.

The game in question was the 3DO game Road Rash, which later came out on both the PS1 and PC.

Heres some of the songs that have really got me going again, and I've been trying to track down some albums by these bands.

Probably Disney music. Used to think it was childish (Well...it is childish for the most part) but then I really listened to I'll Make a Man out of You from Mulan and got hooked. Seriously, Disney has released some seriously epic music - just take a listen to some villain songs (Be Prepared, In the Dark of the Night, Poor Unfortunate Souls, etc.) and you'll see what I mean. And it's freaking catchy as hell once you get into them. I've often said to my friends that the newest movie, The Princess and the Frog, is cursed to have the catchiest music of all time. It's already Disney, and now it's jazz music.

For me it was beginning of this year, started listening to a Guano Apes album I had off my dad when I was about 14 again

Needless to say, as usual, by the time I really start liking a band they have already split up

Hah, my Dad recently bought a best of Peter Gabriel from Amazon. Hearing stuff like this:



Reminds me of summer holidays in France when this was the only tape the family could all agree to listen to!

As mentioned in that thread, Kate Bush.

Was also enjoying Born of Frustration by James the other day.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

Violent Femmes are the awesome

My old band played a cover of 'Gimme the Car' at a valentines day show in Manchester a few years ago. We were congratulated afterward by the promoter for the most inappropriate use of a song ever

Mine is VAST. I was a huge fan of theirs, but my car was broken into about 3 years ago, and they stole my damn music. So since then I stopped listening to VAST until recently. My brother was jamming out to them on a car ride we had and I instantly was hooked again.

I have recently re-discovered the rather excellent Blind Melon. Forgot how much I used to love this album.

Country-Rock goodness.

Strangely, no one has mentioned "Mini-Pops", or if you're a Swede, "ABBA Kids".

The Clash, due in large part to 'The Clash' thread which Albatross started.

Can't say I found them after a long absence though(about 2 years, which I consider long enough to qualify for this thread).

Been listening to 'Bank robber' quite a lot in particular....
