Topic: A song that provokes an image or feeling? | |
---|---|
Do you ever listen to music (the sound not the words) and either an image or feeling comes from it.
For me..Olly Murs : Heart skips a beat, when I hear this I think of what it feels like when you are 1st falling in love..so many ups and downs and your heart races like the beats. |

just about all music evokes some sort of feeling or imagery but I think the strongest depends on the song and whether it touches my personal experience in some salient way.
songs like that include rearview mirror by tupac shakur long way by the Dixie Chicks suds in the bucket by sara evans what if by creed nothing else matters by metallica passenger by deftones 11am Incubus given to fly - pearl jam cinnamon girl - neil young fly over states and johnny cash by jason aldean dirt AIC fast car tracy chapman lots of others too but that start list is a group that evoke particularly strong images or feelings because they in some way tap my personal expereince |

I had to make frequent road trips back n forth from Ohio to Massachusets while my mother was dying of cancer. I only had a few cds to play cuz I kept forgettin to pick something up for the trip. One of the few was a Proclaimers 'best of' or something, and it had a lot of faith/spirituality messages, which my mother was struggling with. I liked it, then, just fine, but now it evokes too much emotion for me as I connect the music with her passing. yes - there is some music that I prefer not to listen to also...but it's not listed here I think where there are good memories, it's OK |

For me it's any song by "Marco Antonio Solis". Every song he sings comes straight from the heart and soul of the guy. He sings in Spanish, but if you will close your eyes and just listen to him, you will understand without even knowing a word of Spanish. Awesome!!

I think the biggest song for me (reasons remaining annonymous) in this respect is called 'Do you remember?' by Jack Johnson. He's not much known here in Scotland but the blokes my inspiration.
The other is by a new up and comer from Sheffield in England, called Jake Bugg. The songs called 'two fingers' - was played at one of my best friends funerals 3 weeks ago and has been in my head ever since. |

'Love changes everything' by (insert band name here, because I've forgot who sings it. An eighties tune). It reminds me of when me and my mum once lived in a hostel around the time the song was released.
Any Meatloaf song, too :) |

alotta rap and metal from decade early 2000 is really hard for me to listen to but I still do because it is bittersweet...I was going through a very difficult time but at the same time made some friends who helped me (mostly just by lending an ear or an evening) so it also reminds me of them.....after the passage of some time it has become, finally, some of my favorite music....reminds me of stephen, jared, james, jarren, erin, shirly, christine, wes, eric, theresa, and a buncha folks from the local music scene at the time yup that's true and probably salient. I listened to alot of public enemy, 2pac, and rage against the machine. but also other things. A lot of the local cover bands at the time were covering Godsmack, RHCP, Staind.. so a lot of that also means very much to me too |
