Your Life Soundtrack. Do you associate key moments in your life with songs?

Usually I don't connect songs with events in my life, even though I listen to music so much. The only time I can really remember there being songs where I connect to events and stuff was when I was 15 and visiting Europe. When I was in Paris, it was right after they had won the soccer championship and so they were playing the theme song from it (it was a Ricky Martin song) on the radio a lot on our bus. Also, the song 'Roxanne' was being played our very last night on the trip (in Italy) and myself and two friends I made on the trip were lip-synching to it at our last dinner on the trip. We thought it was hillarious. I go to a lot of concerts and sometimes some songs when I hear them at home it reminds me of stuff that happened at the concert. For example, my sister and I went and saw Armor For Sleep. During their song 'Dream To Make Believe' the singer, Ben, came right to where my sister and I were standing (at the barricade) and he jumped up on the barricade right between us and used us to steady himself while he knelt on the barricade and sang. Now whenever I hear that song, I think back to that moment.

Wow, yes. My soul is linked to music. I don't like a song for any other reason than I get shivers down my spine when it plays. Could be the words or the beat or the tune - could be anything. Some songs play and they take me back to 1 moment in time. The song 'Don't Stop' by ATB takes me right back to a club in Johannesburg - I was dancing to that song there one night. The song 'The Music Sounds Better With You' takes me back to driving home from a club in Durban with my best friend. We sang this song at the top of our voices. Music moves me!

Yeah I actually did a survey like this a few years ago. They gave me a list of situations in life, and what I would put in for the background music during that situation.
