When a song makes you feel something or remember something add it to the respective emotion. You can make up more emotions and scenarios (like Focus and I need to stay up on this drive)

And to give it context ask yourself:

• How does this song make me feel? (To put it in the right tab)
• What moment in time will this song remind me of? (Tying in a memory)
• Where did I listen to this song? (Making the memory more vivid)
• What's going on in my life that makes it relevant? (Giving it a journal like feel to create your own Lore)

You don’t have to answer all the questions, but the more you’re able to answer the more special it is.

To practice, get your favorite song and run it through those questions.

Here's a framework in case you need it:

(CATEGORY)

Artist - Song name (Location. Memory. Context)

Here is an example of mine.

[Happy]

Savant - Heart (High school. I used to walk to class with this song on repeat, it somehow made the day more bearable. I was new at the school and didn’t know anyone)

Now it's more than just a song in a playlist. It becomes an entry in your life. You can go back and listen to it when you want to feel a certain way.

Now you try! (it if the emotion you’re looking for isn’t listed, make your own):
