There's this certain song that I associate with a death in my family, and every time I hear it I want to cry. It's not a particularly sad song, but I can't shake the feelings associated with it. In fact, I always skip it on iTunes. Is it normal?
My son cries every time he hears "Let It Be" because some YouTube video showed a family putting down their pet dog to that song.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
And I cry every time to the version of "Killing me softly." by Lauren Hill (The Fugees.)
I cry not because it brings back painful memories but because her voice is so beautiful. I have goosebumps every time it pops up on my music player.
A person in my past lost both her grandparents within a week of each other, at Christmas. Coming back from the hospital after the second death, REM's "Everybody Hurts" came on the radio and she fell apart. Five years on, she still can't listen to it.
I understand. Everytime I hear Slipped Away by Avril Lavigne I think of my aunt who passed away some years ago and tears come to my eyes. I just can't help it.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Yeah, I've got a couple of songs like that. I accidentally broke my stereo in a panicked scramble to turn it off when one of the offending songs started to play. It's the emotional attachments made to those particular songs and what they represented at the time I first heard them. I doubt I'll ever be able to listen to them again.
