A song from your teenage years.
As a teenager in the 1990s, I often felt split between two identities—part indie kid, part raver—with one foot in each tribe, going to gigs and festivals with one group of friends and all-nighters with another, never quite fitting into either world. So the Chemical Brothers' Let Forever Be, from right at the end of the decade and my own teenage years, where both musical styles merge, forming a composite, seems fitting. It also has one of the best music videos ever made.
