Have you ever had a moment like this, before...?!

I've just pulled up at home after driving back from the supermarket.

My wedding day is in 2 months time; this September.. and I was just having a quiet moment of reflection as I was driving about how my dear late stepfather won't be there on my special day.

Out of nowhere, the Mamma-Mia playlist I had on via Spotify skipped right over, to a song I don't actively listen to. Justin Bieber 'Ghost'.

I'm still wracking my brain as to how I've managed to go from the playlist I was 1/2 way through listening to, to it completely changing to a different playlist.. and the irony of the song that played.

I listened to it through.. and well, safe to say I arrived back home in floods of tears. Poor DP has no idea what's happened I think it was the part that said 'if you can't be next to me, your memory is ecstasy'

My lovely stepdad was a wonderful father figure, taken away from us all so young and with so much life ahead of him. He stood in when my own father couldn't step up to the plate and raised me like his own. He would have been the one to walk me down the aisle If only he were here. Maybe it's a HUGE coincidence. I'm not a 'woo' person as such. But I've taken comfort in the fact that maybe he was with me ❤️

So it got me thinking. Has anybody else ever experienced similar?

After the shock it's certainly put a smile on my face

I would cry if Justin Bieber came on my car radio too.

Only joking, sorry for your loss OP.

Im sure your wedding day will be wonderful.

Hi op, yes I have a moment like this before. I was talking to my family about finding a white feather in my house (none of the cushions in my house have feathers in them) and then a song on the radio came on about angels. My nan died 4 years ago. I'm not a big believer in the afterlife but It did make me wonder. The saying about angels goes "when angels are near, feathers appear".

I smell my lovely auntie at random points. In my old house which my sister now lives in, she mentioned that she smelt our aunt, and I said exactly where in the house she was when she smelt her which really freaked her out. Only reason I knew is because that’s where I’d always smell her when I did.

Little things like this have taken me a while to get used to, but I really love them now and they don’t freak me out anymore.

@Mamette honestly he doesn't come on out of choice! but it was actually quite a lovely song!
