btw, I usually also identify certain spots in my city where if I drive past there I think of a certain album or song too. tnp
There are certain albums that when I hear them, I think of the season it came out....for instance--I bumped the hell outta "Tha Last Meal" and that came out in December. I was bumping it all through the winter, so now whenever I play it, I think of snow and cold ass weather.There's some albums that I wish would come out in the summer, so I could think of summer when I bump 'em.

I do that same exact thing. When I hear a certain part of a song, I can tell you a landmark of place that comes to mind right away.I'll use one of my favorite albums as an example:N.W.A. - Niggaz4LifeI think of......1. Prelude (a specific spot in my hallway listening to it on my headphones thinkin' "If mom knows what I'm listening to, she'll throw it out")2. Real Niggaz Don't Die (sitting on my porch swing)3. Niggaz 4 Life (a hot ass day on the playground {elementary school})4. Protest (me and my cracka Shane listening to it)5. Appetite For Destruction (playing basketball in an alley down the street)6. Don't Drink That Wine ( always thought of commericals)7. Alwayz Into Somethin' (just think of the black&white video for this)8. Message To B. A. (I automatically think of 'broomstick')9. Real Niggaz (quiet summer night)10. To Kill A Hooker (always thought of it as part of "one less bitch")11. One Less Bitch (the outro always makes me think of this girl from 6th grade)12. Findum, Fuckum And Flee (the tree in my front yard)13. Automobile (these 3 brothers at school always singing this on the playground)14. She Swallowed It (my fifth grade teacher because this one kid would always say Euguene {the teacher's real name} swallowed it!)15. I'd Rather Fuck You (of a conversation my friend told me he had with this hot bitch in our class from 6th grade)16. Approach To Danger (cool night)17. 1-900-2-COMPTON (always thought of it as part of the song)18. The Dayz of Wayback (of walking down Bolton Ave. and seeing someone I didn't like from school)I can do that shit with just about any album. That one really doesn't have an landmarks because I was only 10 years old when the album came out. Anything that came out in 1996 or later, I can name specific buildings or streets that I think of with certian songs.
Same thing for me.
