I was in band through middle school and high school. We were a small district so there was no separation between marching band and concert band. Being in the band was just being in the band.
I was in the percussion section and there was a guy in the grade above me that was (and still is) quite proficient. He was pretty spectacular on the kit even as a middle schooler and he still plays in a couple of local bands to this day.
One day he came in with his walkman and he said hey, I have this band you need to listen to. What I knew of music was pretty limited to what was currently on the radio and music from the 50's and 60's because that is what my parents listened to.
I put the headphones on and listened to something quite unlike I had ever heard before. Sure bands like Bon Jovi and Def Leppard were being played on the radio, but Hardline was a little too crazy for me at the time.
I never forgot the song though and these days I frequently find myself rocking out to it in my office!
I nominate 
The rules:

Write your text while listening to the song. As soon as the song ends, wrap up what you where writing and submit it.
