Listen to this episode



Every Tuesday, we dedicate this segment to the songs that bring you right back to a very specific time in your life - first love, exams, moving out from home, backpacking around the world, nights out, nights in, going to college, bad jobs, falling in love, falling out of love, weddings and babies.

For coming on the show and sharing your Milestone Music Moment, we'll send you a lovely momento of your story. You will receive all the elements of the tale - the date, lyrics of the song and more, all on a beautifully finished poster for you to treasure.

This week's Milestone was brought to us by Sandra Coote in Co.Cavan, with one of Ireland's most loved songs (well most of the time), which transports her back to Christmas of 2001.

The Viriginian lady was working nights on the run up to Christmas so was needing a well-earned lie in each day - but her neighbours had other ideas. 

It's not Christmas until you hear The Fairytale of New York blaring out of a speaker somewhere, but banging out of the walls next door, most days, when you're wrecked tired...torture.

Shane McGowan has a lot to answer for, but she has turned a corner...

If you've a milestone of your own, we'd love to hear all about it. Email your story to breakfast@todayfm.com
