What does music make you think of?

Sorry for the grammar fou pax.

Whenever I hear a tune by the band Chicago, I want some Demon Dogs hot dogs and fries. It's under the Fullerton El stop in Chicago, best fries I've ever had, not contest (and Chicago has some great fries). The owner's brother is in the band and he is also the manager for the band. On the walls of the place you can see all their gold and silver and platinum albums.

Johnny Cash makes me want to get drunk and fight. (I don't, though).

Led Zepplin reminds me of cool nights in the Northwoods, though the Florida pine forests seem to have that feel about them also.

Jimmy Buffet reminds me of the Florida Keys.

Pink Floyd makes me think of that talking rectal judge at the end of The Wall.

Alan Jackson makes me think of lazily riding the Chatahootchie River (unsuprisingly).

[Cyclotron]

All the things I could be doing besides sitting on my rear listening to oddly arranged sound waves.

I have a photographic memory for music in a way. If I hear a song that I haven't heard in a while I'll sometimes flash back to where I was when I first heard it, or it first made an impression. For instance while listening to the radio an old song will come on and I'll remember being in a car at a certain intersection facing a certain direction, with certain people with me. I can usually remember where we were going, and sometimes what else happened that day. Sometimes it gives me chills because it is such a clear memory. This is one reason why I have been buying up a lot of radio music from the sixties and seventies. It can transport me back in time and uncover things I had long forgotten about.

ak1200's lock and roll mix reminds me of my first semester at junior college/junior year of high school camping out with a bunch of folks on angel island.

most funky and filter house reminds me of my raving days back in 2000-2001

most my memories that are associated with music are overly nostalgic and thats depressing.

Heavy metal makes me thing of, the world is going to end soon...

most slow music reminds me of all my regrets and mistakes in life I've made.

Happy music (aka ska) makes me think of all the crazy a** stuff my friends and I did in high school and the early years of college.

Phonographic memory maybe?


I have a similar experience. Certain albums remind me of certain journeys. Kate Bush, for example, always reminds me of sunflower fields in France.

Chillout music makes me relaxed and optimistic.
