Do you have special songs that makes you remember stuff from the past?
 
I always loved music and I listen to it all the time. When something remarkable happens in my life, both good and bad, I clearly remember the songs or music I was listening to that moment. Even after years, if I hear a particular song again, I get overwhelmed with the same feelings and emotions I felt at that moment. It doesn't even has to link to a significant moment, some songs just makes me remember stuff like shopping for food, a business trip for work or just a weekend chilling at home.

I was wondering if you experience music and memories the same way. What song or lyric really got to you and makes you link to a specific event that happened to you in the past, significant or not?

A huge number of songs that I listen to automatically make me think of what I was doing at earlier times (say for example there are a few albums that I had on loop while I was reading a certain book series many years ago, or playing a certain game) they aren't really significant events for the most part though.

I guess a lot of them in general do remind me of certain phases when I was listening to those types of music the most, but it's rarely some omg life changing moment sort of thing.

Music has always been part of my life and I can really relate to a particular song bring back memories of a specific event. I try and pick a song every day and add it to a playlist, it’s like a soundtrack to my life. I don’t know to me finding a song that expresses how you are feeling in that particular moment is an amazing feeling, one that should be cherished.

Currently listening too Staind – Epiphany.

Yes, some songs remind me of things. Green Day's Minority reminds me of when I realised that being different is a good thing; Taylor Swift's Red remiss me of my best friend, with whom I lost contact for several years and recently found again; and Guns N Roses' November Rain will remind me of this summer, because of all the shit that's happened.

I listened to the same pendulum album on repeat, immersion, when reading the godfather books. It always reminds me of them.

At school, there was a room I went to during free periods which had a playlist on repeat. All those songs bring back good memories.
