I typed a big long winded post and the damn site threw me off, Anyhow for me music plays a big part in my life, I have always associated a song with a time, or place in my life..... so when I hear a song, I have a past memory attached to it, and yep it makes me sad that that a certain artist whoever it may be, has died, Because I recall that old memory good or bad that was attached to the song, and makes me look back and remember what, who, or where I was in my life at the time. Does that make sense?
