Sorry for weird title.
Just wondering if there are any songs, when heard unexpectedly, has the power to hit you in the gut and render you an emotional wreck.
I heard Separate Lives (Phil Collins/Marilyn Martin) earlier today and the emotions it brought up are still with me now.

Songs eh. Powerful stuff.

Thank you so much. It’s been ok which seems weird but it’s little things like that, that just knock me for 6.
I had some of their clothes here and when I smelled them, I was in bits for a good couple of days.
Bursting into tears in shops etc. 🤦‍♀️
