Songs that remind you of certain things....

....And are now ruined as a result?

A certain George Ezra song was the radio 2 song of the week the same week as a relatives funeral, and now every time I hear it I feel sad, so it's ruined!

Does anyone else have one?

Or perhaps one that reminds them of a happy memory or place?

Isn't music magic that it can do that.

I have loads of these, happy and sad.
One that is very vivid is R.E.M.'s album Automatic for the People always reminds me of when I was on a school exchange in Germany, I was on a tram and whenever I hear it, I'm immediately back in the tram (randomly).

Then a few songs associated with now dead friends, sadly from funerals.
A few 80s songs take me back to silly dancing with my best friends.
A 90s pop song to one incident of snogging an old flame who I really, really fancied. I can practically remember what I'm wearing.
Fleetwood Mac reminds me (happily) of an ex.

Sorry for your loss.
