Tonight, I attended a talk on neuroscience and brain research, and there were a lot of interesting links between memories, behavior, and mental health. So I’m doing my own little version of that in this thread. What song do you associate with happy memories, even if it’s just a general feeling of happiness? Can you recall one of your oldest ones?
Go your own way, by Fleetwood Mac makes me think of fun car trips with my parents, roughly around 6-8 years old. Nothing terribly specific, though I do associate it closely with one of the city highway on ramps used to go visit relatives, go skiing, or get to the airport. :)
Play It Right, by Sylvan Esso.
I adore it, i heard it in ‘Into The Forest’ (which i also adore), it shows up in a wholesome part of the movie, so whenever i hear it i get happy memories from that first watch, which i did with my then boyfriend, it was a special moment for me. It also made me get into the band.
Also here’s another lovely song from that movie: Wild is the Wind, Cat Powers.
Ooh, I like this song :)
