This story is part of a web series called Music that Matters with CBC Yukon's Airplay host Dave White. When Alex James moved to the Yukon four years ago, he brought a few things from his home in Ontario — music and memories in particular. So when we asked him for five songs that matter to him, he seized on the role music plays in transporting him. "With the pandemic and everything that's [going] on, I really took that word 'matters' — what matters to me," he said. Then, only a couple weeks into teaching in Yukon, James was at a school dance in Haines Junction and heard it again.
