Hey Saki, welcome back!
Songs that come to mind for me are R.E.M. - Losing My Religion
Also Natilie Imbruglia - Torn (about the end of a relationship, but still some of the lyrics seemed appropriate - "I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel / Illusion never turned into something real")
Let It Be is a good one though Andre. Sometimes I feel the need to take a deep breath, listen to that song, and let it all go for awhile.
Losing my religion
Oooh I love torn!
I hope you dance by Lee Ann Womack.
Worldy Andrey, that reminded me of when I was playing 'I am the Walrus' and my mother burst into my room and confiscated my LP saying 'that music is demon influenced'.
Which has just reminded me of when I was learning the piano as a kid, my father hit me for playing a practice song. That song was 'jingle bells'.
Happy times!

I ran away from home when I was 11 and Happy Together was on the radio coming out of the houses I walked past. There was another kid's bike in front of his house, I almost stole it but thought better than to make that poor kid feel bad about losing his bike.
"How Can I Tell You?" by Cat Stevens, from head to foot a shock shoots through me and makes my hair stand on end. First love gone forever and unreclaimable youth.
If you want to hear it for yourself, I uploaded an mp3 on Putfile: http://media.putfile.com/How-Can-I-Tell-You-76
Finally, "Long Time Gone" by Crosby Stills and Nash just makes me feel alive like few other sensations.
W.Once
Good song W.A.E.!
I'm moving on by Rascall Flatts
"I'm back in the saddle again" - Aerosmith
I have a few...
The last day of my first job, I bumped The Ohio Players' "Time Slips Away." I can just remember watching the place as I drove away...
To this day, I can't listen to Stevie Wonder's "For Once in My Life" while driving. During the high point in his harmonica solo (around 2:02), I was clipped by a truck. Brings back too many emotions.
Other times when I'm just sitting at my computer, I'll connect certain songs with certain times in my life. I can remember driving and listening to particular albums, because they were on heavy repeat.
