    I can relate to that, with a twist.

    I can pinpoint events in time by listening to music from that era. For example, if I want to recall buried memories of events from say, 1971, I will listen to music from that year.

    Strange but true. Normal I guess.

    They are are soundtracks for a specific period of time in our lives. We felt emotion when we originally listen to those songs, those emotions are then triggered when listening to the same song in the future. Very normal.

    Totally normal, I like it when the music brings good feelings but hate to hear songs that make me depressed or remember bad times. But what sucks is that some of the songs that make me feel depressed are not necessarily depressing in nature. Totally know what you mean though.

    This happens at least 2 times a month for me . The power of music is a time capsule for each individual.Life would be one big mistake without it and if an old song is bringing back memories, find a better song that will lift your spirit and create a new memory for the present and motivate you to keep moving and inspiring your passion in life.

    I know EXACTLY what you mean!! It happens to me with many songs. The emotion isnt always sad though... it can infact bring back some glorious moments as well! I feel like certian music or songs haves a huge impact on anyone & everyone at some point.

    Yeah it's normal. Music affects me the same way. I'll have a certain memory about a song (like when I first heard it, etc.) and it brings back those memories and emotions. Especially if I haven't heard it in a while.

  • Music has that affect on some people, it can alter your mood in seconds, it's quite normal, don't fret.
