Some songs just have the ability to transport us to a certain time or place. The music-memory connection really is pretty amazing, right?
Why am I talking about this? Well, since the school year has begun, I have to start waking up to an alarm again. I haven’t gotten to changing the alarm tone since the England trip, so each time it goes off, wonderful vacation memories are brought up.
Which got me thinking about all the other tunes that invoke some lovely memories. Here are just some on the top of my head.
- Come & Get It – Selena Gomez
- Every time I hear this now, I’m brought back to the gymnasium in
- where all the dance troupes slept.
I’m a big big music lover. I make a monthly playlist and each one reminds me of something that was happening in my life then. I like to go back and listen to them 🙂
It’s awesome that you make monthly playlists! Must be quite nice to listen to them and relive the moments. I usually just listen to the songs I like on repeat till I get tired of them which takes quite a while, if I get tired of them at all that is. Haha, I should really branch out more when it comes to music.:P
That looks like an awesome trip 🙂
Yup, it really was!
Love these! Now that Selena Gomez song is stuck in my head 😛
Thanks! Come & Get It has been stuck in my head practically forever too. 😀
Found your blog through Davida’s, nice to meet another TW! 🙂
Thanks for stopping by. 😀 It really is nice to meet another TW and I’m loving your recipes. Really look forward to making them. 🙂
Since I have 4 teenagers, these songs usually remind me of my kids. You look like you travel a lot and are able to do a lot of things. It’s nice to see a person enjoying and embracing life!
That’s really sweet. 🙂
Thanks Nicole! Well, I am trying my best to live my life to the fullest and to enjoy every moment of it.
Music truly is the way straight to emotions. I have the music on my phone sorted into types. Fast and loud for when I’m stressed or want to clean the house. Touching for when I need to let it out. And of course The Muppets Christmas for any time of year. Enjoy your SITS Day.
It most certainly is! That sounds like a really good idea, the music on my phone is just a jumble of songs I like. 😛
Thanks Sheila!
I had a boyfriend who loved John Denver music. Now every time I hear a John Denver song I think of him. Nothing bad, just fond memories of a relationship that ran it’s course.
That sounds pretty interesting. 🙂 Good thing they’re fond ones instead of bad ones.
Wow! A $50 caricture? LOL You’re right though…music has a way to transport you instantly back to a moment, feeling, emotion connected with it. Great post! Thanks for sharing and Happy SITS Day!
I know right? 😛 That’s one of the reasons why I love listening to music. 🙂 Thank you so much Tiffany!
