But who cares? Memory isn't about reality, and neither is music. It's about the comforting reflections we want to hold on to, even if they're mostly bullshit.

About This Quote

This quote sums up perfectly the way music and memories are intertwined. The word "memory" is used to describe both the past and one's feelings or feelings about the past. Music is another form of memory, for it is made up of the same sorts of sounds that our brain makes when we recall how we felt at one time or another. When you listen to music, it takes you back to a time in your life when you were feeling something.
