"American Graffiti"

Nostalgia is a certain longing for the past that one feels that is usually triggered by a fimiliar sight, smell, taste, sound, etc. When I listen to "Rock Around the Clock" I picture teenagers from the fifties dancing and I also picture old-fashioned diners and jukeboxes. When I listen to "Sixteen Candles" I picture a family, also from the fifties, sitting together in their living room listening to this song on the radio. When I think of my childhood, the first image that pops into my head is being outside in the fall and walking to UK football games.
