What music reminds you of someone or something that has happened in your life? Is it a good or bad memory? Do you smile and remember the past? Or you cringe and wished you hadn't heard the song now?

Whenever I hear any Rocky theme music I remember Thanksgiving 1985. My brother and I were sent to the movies alone to get us out of the way so things could be set up. We watched Rocky IV. After we came out of the theatre it was raining, we were hyped up from watching the movie and rain across the parking lot. We ran so fast we barely got wet. That was fun.

Wow I bet that was a bonding moment for you and your brother. While I was reading your post, I was picturing in my head what you were saying with the Rocky theme music in the background. Looked like a scene in some movie! hahaha!

2 songs for me. both sung by Stevie Nicks. and both will have me on the verge of tears unfortunatly. the first song is Silver Springs..which is basically about someone not letting you love them. and Landslide, which is kinda about growing up and away from things. Silver Springs because the man i was in love with didnt feel the same way apparantly and moved to another state to get back with his ex. Landslide because i often listened to that song to try and move on..but also coincidentaly..it was playing on the radio the guy who left was listening to..it reminded him of me, he called said he was wrong and was coming back for me. sadly we didnt work out, for a number of reasons. he is honestly the only man ive ever been IN love with. but we are both better off not being together i believe.

it was like a roller coaster ride for you.. it's really up and down.. well good for you that you have already accepted the situation and have moved on. hopefully, next time, happy happy thoughts will be the ones you'll remember when you hear the song

A lot of music in fact. I love love songs that is why. The one that reminds me of my hubby is BORN FOR YOU by David Pomeranz. It is our love song.
