When I was a teenager I used to read (fictional) books while listening to music at the same time.

For years afterwards listening to the same music would make my mind imagine events in the books I was reading listening to the same music. I'm not sure exactly when it stopped happening though.

Final Fantasy 4 and Stairway to Heaven are inextricably linked in my mind for a similar reason.

For me it’s Stunts and Bone Thugs n Harmony, E. 1999 Eternal. Listened to that CD on repeat building tracks on an IBM ps/2 as a kid.

Also Biggie’s Warning and anything Visual Basic 3.0. I don’t know why

There’s a song that eludes me at the moment, but it always conjures memories of my telescope as a child. I must have heard it one night as I was looking through a star chart waiting for it to get darker.
