Ever been listening to a song and suddenly remember a song that you havent heard or even thought about for years?
It happens to me alot but this particular time I was listening to "I touch myself" and suddenly a line from the chorus "Summer Rain" by Belinda Carlisle rang through my head and I dont think ive ever even heard the whole song before today! I didnt even know the words except that one line or the name of the song. Funny the way the mind works.
Ok you go!
My music flashbacks have alittle more to it.
I have a big cd case full of burnt CDs, about every year I would burn music onto a CD that looks different from all the rest. Most songs on each CD have some sort of reason being on there, or I atleast remember the time and why I put the music on there. I don't have such a great of memory, but I can remember just about any moment if music is associated to it.
Either way, I started to go through the CD's that started when I was like 15 up until I was 21. The only songs I was like 'Oh wow~' were like one's of bands were I only liked two of their songs.
I do promote people making like.. a time line of their life with music, it's fun, and everysong can bring you more than "Omg I haven't heard that song in forever".
I have the timeline thing going where I order all the music on my computer by the date the file was created so I know when I was into it :D
I'd burn them onto a cd and put it in one of those cd books incase something happens to it.Quote:

Granted it was a pretty not happy cd and the memories weren't so great, but I could remember the exact time and why those songs were on the cd.
Actually for some reason every time I listen to an old song I get the feeling of "This is a song from back when I was younger and had less worries" really it feels like a constant grass is greener in retrospect, sort of thing! The weirdest time it happened was when I had the feeling even though I found the song 1 months before
