Music Memories

Tuesday, January 15, 2013

I. Love. Music. Period. It can make my day when the right song comes across those speakers, or an older song can bring back so many memories. Here lately, we've been listening to Magic 96.5 out of Bham and they play a good mixture of today and yesterday. Well, as soon as a song comes on, I immediately assocaite it with a time, place, person... but mostly, movies!

If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.” Albert Einstein

Let's see if you have the same reaction to some of these that I did...

{Benny and the Jets} 27 Dresses (the bar scene)


{I Don't Want to Miss a Thing} Armageddon (the animal crackers and sweet talks)

{I Have Nothing} The Bodyguard (the awards show on stage performance)

{The Way You Make Me Feel} — Centerstage (the final dance)


{Every Breath You Take} — The Replacements (the bar scene)

{Time After Time} — Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (the reunion dance)


{Easy Like Sunday Morning} — The Zoo Keeper (the wedding scene)
 
Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this! What are some of your songs that takes you back instantly?
