The Beatles, Bowie and The Stones - a lasting impression

The music we discover in our teens hits us hard and lasts a lifetime. In this gorgeous short film, Ruby Wax, Neil Tennant and Bill Nighy discuss the formative effect that The Beatles, David Bowie and the Rolling Stones had on their younger selves.

The "reminiscence bump" is a psychological phenomenon that explains why the music we love as teenagers stays with us forever. Find out more about in this fascinating article by neuropsychologist (and Beatles lover) Dr Catherine Loveday: http://bbc.in/2ggP4Av
