Music & Moments.

[Living-In-Clip]

Here is one for you. List a cd and / or a song that makes you think of a time in your life or specfic moment.


I\'ll start and give examples.


1: The Killers (Hot Fuss) - This time last year, my now fiance and I listened to this all the time. If for no other reason, because it\'s the only thing we could agree on music wise. So anytime I hear this cd, I think of a year ago, before she was pregnant and everything was "fresh and new".

2: Depeche Mode (Music for the Masses & Ultra) - I wore both cds out back in \'00 / \'01. I was constantly depressed as any teenager is and when it seemed everything was goin\' wrong, both cds gave me some kind of depressing comfort. Songs like \'Never Let me Down\', \'Barrel of a Gun\' and \'Useless\' took everything I felt and put it to music.

3: Any old Motown  - My father and I wasn\'t close when I was growing up, but I do remember his apperciation for old motown. To this day, I can\'t help but enjoy some Temptations or Four Tops.

4: A Perfect Circle (Vanishing) - I remember Capcom and I goin\' to see APC in concert late November of \'03. When this song came out it set the tone for a great weekend, one of the best of my life. Everything was perfect that night, as far as tone and setting went. The next day, I went ahead and done something I always wanted to do and that was skydiving.  To this day, if I need to get pumped up I listen to \'Vanishing\'.

Babe I\'m going to leave you-  Last girlfriend broke up with me while that song was playing....I shit you not.

Any song by Braid reminds me of driving to Michigan every weekend.

I hate The Killers...in fact...their music invokes homicidal thoughts in my head whenever I hear it. But you have a memory attached to one of their songs, which makes it MUCH better...to you, at least. So I can understand.

Stabbing Westward (Waking Up Beside You) - Just...reminds me of my ex. In fact...most of their music has gotten me through many situations or affected me in some way (the old stuff).

Rage - Every song reminds me of my senior year in high school and my best friend alex. Hes in Austin right now I miss the guy, we used to work out and talk about religion and stuff. Everything really.

A Perfect Circle - (The Thirteenth Step) reminds me of playing elder scrolls III on my computer. I would just loop the CD and explore the crazily deep, large world.

A lot of songs go with games I played while listening to them.

BT (Anything off the \'Emotional Technology\' album) reminds me of the Time a spent in Canada for about 4-1/2 months.

Rob Zombie, \'More human than human\' reminds me of when I  got my first vehicle and used to drive my buddies home from school. We must have listened to that song 100 times when it first came out.

311 - Sweet.  "We parted much too soon, I know but that\'s how it goes.  There\'s someone better out there for you & me."

gh3y story but reminds me of this cute Ukranian chick I met one summer.  Gave her my # and she called back twice but we never hooked up.  She went back to the Ukraine when summer ended & never heard from her again. ;\\

Radiohead-Just

Reading and then posting in this thread.

radiohead- kid A...reminds me of when I first met kyoko, it was october 2000 and we went to Toronto a lot listening to it on the way there...

Also we saw a man jump off of the Burlington bridge on the way there while "Treefingers" was playing and kyoko almost pissed her pants...good times...

The whole Jim Croce album, Photographs and Memories, reminds me of my grandfather. We were listening to that tape on the car ride to the hospital the night he died.

Some songs remind me of when I used to listen to them. Some of the last few songs on Elv1s remind me of driving to work for a job I held a couple of weeks. I forget what, but there\'s a song or two, maybe by Live, that always reminds me of playing Top Gear Rally on N64.

Go figure.

I dig the 80\'s vibe the Killers try to pull off.
As far as it goes, I can\'t stand My Chemical Romance , but I can listen to \'Helena\' all day long, just because that was the first song we listened to in the car on our first date.



Someone mentioned Elder Scrolls III , I need to dig that game up. I kind of want to play it now.

[MPTheory]

that was on Sega right?

[Living-In-Clip]

Eh?
PC game.

I can recognize that. Alot of times in my life are \'labeled\' by all music I have listened to in my life.

It just happens. I guess the mind attaches it at own will.

Too much too name...
