Are there any songs that revive your memories. For me a song that my then fiance sang for me while we were strolling on the beach 'In her Easter Parade' brings back memories of that romantic evening and the hymn 'Precious Lord" takes me to funeral scenes. There are countless songs that revive my memories including school exams, holidays,...the list is endless. Can you share your thoughts with us?

hi allknowing yes the song Catch a Falling Star brings back the days my husband and I were courting. Dancing in the Rain brings back memories of my hubby and I watching that wellknown dancer in a movie,senior moment as I just now gene kelly, thats the one,he sang that in this really wonderful movie April In Paris. and the beatles song Cant Help Falling In Love With YOU will always remind me of Gold crest if I can ever get out of here again into an apartment. We had some really wonderful programs here sponsored by the Garden Grove school district that will all stop by February as they do not want to spend on us older people here, its not fair but that is the way the world is , it is not fair. We had Adriana and her husband Brad who played music for us, Adriana on her violin and brad on his gitaur

We all get so emotional when we hear those songs - songs that remind us of our courtship, even little quarrels while a particular song being heard in the background. My brother was a choir conductor and the Handels Messiah was his favourite as also Beethovan's symphony No.9 which bring back memories of his losing his temper over the singers when they made mistakesAll the songs that you have mentioned I love them too and Gene Kelly and his tap dancing who can forget that!!

i love music so much that everything reminds of some type song or music. at times i feel there is music playing in background of my life like in the movies yes, every song reminds me of something. "you are my sunshine" dads song for mom before they split years ago. "mona lisa" by nat king cole, very old song people used to sing to my mom for her beautiful smile. it goes on and on through life.
