Lyrical Flashback.

So I'm here on my computer rolling through my itunes. I'm getting ready to make a mixtape since I figured it's been a while.

It's amazing how songs can bring you back to a certain point, a certain time, a certain memory in your life. People talk about the association of smell being really strong, but I don't know. I vote hearing is stronger. You hear and listen to things all the time. The whirling the air makes as speeds past your ear or the so typical pitter patter of rain drops. These are all happening in the background. I think you brain builds these connections with sound and other sense or emotions.

Or perhaps it would be songs you listen to at key points in your life. I've talked to ends about my feelings on Garden State. But seriously I forever associate that song to the movie.

Random musings while I compile.

i totally agree with you man. Songs will capture me and place me there, in that time and place. Brings me to tears really easily too.
