Music and Memory

It’s a pretty interesting topic because music in the modern era is a really big deal. What I mean by that is the majority of people listen to music every day, and of course, our taste and preferences change as time goes on. Hence, we get tired of one song even if that was our favorite and move on. However, because we make memories on a daily basis, some of the songs remind us of a specific situation or a feeling. You can get both positive and negative emotions out of it. Surprisingly, the memories that we associate with a specific song stay in our memory for a really long time. For instance, my father heard a song on the street, and he got excited because of it. He remembered 20 years earlier and the memories and nostalgia he got from it.
