There have been periods in my life where music has influenced major life decisions. How about you?

I can't say that music has influenced me per se but it has had a great impact and my life has a definite soundtrack to it which has evolved over the years. I really got into music in the early 80's listening to Gary Numan, OMD, Ultravox and all that synth pop stuff...by the early 90's I had moved on to a lot of techno/trance type stuff..I was old enough to hit the clubs at that point and that's the scene I ended up in...I have now moved on to hardcore industrial like Skinny Puppy, Hocico etc, but still have a love of the earlier stuff I listened to. I can hear a specific piece of music and close my eyes and put myself back to the place where I first heard it or used to listen to it....very powerful

I totally agree, there are a lot of 80's new wave bands that make me feel all nostalgic.

Pink Floyd and Scorpions. I allways associate them with very deep emotions and strong periods in my life.

For me it has been Radiohead, Muse, Dresden Dolls, all totally random to whatever fit my problem or mood.

"Wake me up before September Ends " by Green Day has been a very influential musical for me. Everytime I am done for what ever reason I always listen to it and I am out of it in an instance. Actually I have adopted the lyrics of the song to certain incidents in my life and they fit so well, so this one sounds very near to me.... Also I remember this Christian song "Ave Maria", I would listen when I used to be Sad. This song was my friend when I was lonely very long time ago. I am not a christian, but still that song was special for me.
