What are songs that come to mind when you think of the ones you listened to in your childhood? Not necessarily that they were your favorite, but just, what's the first one that comes to mind?
For some reason the first one that comes to my mind is "I Wear my Sunglasses at Night" and I believe my babysitters liked it too but when I went down to the pool the lifeguard turned it off and suddenly he seemed to be in a bad temper.
(That was the summer after first grade in Watervliet.)
After that I think of "Bette Davis Eyes" and being excited to listen to it in the backseat of my grandfather's car as he drove around his farmland in North Carolina.
(That was the summer before first grade.)
Oh but the one I think about if I'm a little kid going around some hilly terrain in a car in view of the Catskills is definitely this one!
Billy Ocean - Caribbean Queen

And also it makes me think of eating toffee or caramels.
