‘Behind every favorite song, there is an untold story!’

“Music is a language that doesn’t speak in particular words. It speaks in emotions, and if it’s in the bones, it’s in the bones.” ― Keith Richards

There is no denying that music is a major factor of our lives, most of us I guess. This is not for the ones who listen to one song and then get bored of it and it’s over. This is for people who fall in love with a song, or just simply get addicted to the song and listen to it on loop, people like me. There is always this one song that is most listened to in your playlist. You basically listen to that song everywhere and every day. Whenever you have the chance of listening to music, that is this one song that will be played first and second and third and fourth and maybe then you will listen to another. Do you remember any such song or songs?

I think that over the years, any such songs that came into our life has a story behind it. The words and lyrics may not describe that story but just by listening to that song, it reminds you of something, someone, a period of your life, happiness and sadness as well. Remember when you had your first smartphone and learnt to download songs? These are the songs I’m talking about. Just go and listen to them today, you’ll automatically be taken back to that teenage years. Or do you remember when you were little and you would always hear particular songs on the radio or on TV or anywhere you would go to?  For me it would be the old world cup songs, whatever year it was, it was the song that was always around for a while, whether I had my phone or not. It just was there. And if you would listen to them now, you would feel the atmosphere that was around, the feels, the games and everything.

I feel that these songs are engraved into our mind and heart. No matter how much time have gone by, anytime that song is played, you remind yourself of a memory. It feels good to get back to those time once in a while, even the bad ones. The songs that you listened to on bus rides, songs that you were listening to for a while and met someone during that period, songs that you were listening to when you had your first heartbreak, or a song that your best friend forced you to listen to, or a song that you thought was crappy but you listened to it anyway. Go and listen to them all, you will relive those stories!
