30 day song challenge. A song that reminds you of somewhere

Idiot Pilot - Spark Plug.

A few months before I met the girl mentioned in yesterday's post, I had agreed to move to Leeds with a couple of, we'll call them acquaintances (as one of them is an utter nut, and the other a dick of epic proportions).  This song (and the album it's taken from) reminds me of walking round Leeds looking for a job (unsuccessfully), getting the bus to work in York, and making a surprise visit to the girl's student digs in York, when she thought I was still in Leeds.  This is the first Idiot Pilot (described by Rock Sound as sounding like Hatebreed fucking Radiohead while DJ Shadow watches) song I heard, and it still leaves me slightly breathless.
