So if we follow strict Ken Bruce rules then how does it work?

Any song that you like, or only ones that were a memory from your lifetime?

See I'd want to include Stairway to Heaven, although it's really before my time.

By all means include anything you like that means something you like from your memories but on Kens show the tracks tend not to be overly long but Stairway has been on a few times i'm sure....best to just tune in about 11.40 am when this bit usually comes on

I'm misinterpreting...twas ever thus, but.
I thought one had to choose a song for each decade-ish of one's lifespan so far (heaven knows what the next 60 years will hold )
