One more variation of the song thread theme. Name a song that you used to really hate but now really like. Not a song that you used to think sucked but now can tolerate, but rather a song that has gone from one extreme to the other on the hate/love scale.
Mine is "Get Down Tonight" by KC and the Sunshine band. When I was in Air Force basic training in Aug-Sep 1975, our flight (term for the smallest level of an official organized group) was housed in one of the few remaining WWII-era wooden barracks left on Lackland AFB. There was no A/C, so the windows were kept open at night (temps were still in the upper 70s/low 80s at night, with muggy humidity). About a block or so away was The Skylark Club that had music playing until late at night...loud music. I must've heard that song 4-5 times a night, every single night of basic training while trying to go to sleep. It's good thing we weren't issued weapons with live rounds else I would've pulled a Full Metal Jacket on someone. Now when I hear it, it makes me think of basic training, and when I was 18 and away from home for the first time...I now really like the song a lot. There's no way I would've ever thought I'd end up liking the song so much, after I had loathed it as much as I did.
