The Refreshments - Nada

I met my ex-wife on "blind date" sophomore year of high school at a Refreshments show. When this song came on, she snuggled up real close to me and I could feel the connection between us for the first time. It was truly magic in that way only high school first love could be.

We're still friends after 15 years together and almost as long divorced. But, this song takes me back to a different place and time like nothing else ever could.

it’s amazing how we make connections like that. I think because music is non-visual, our eyes capture memories even more aggressively and tie it to the music playing.

Absolutely agree! Especially when our other senses are able to take over while our auditory ones are bathed in good music.
