Are there any songs that remind you so much of a particular part of your life that you feel like your heart is going to break?

Some songs with memories for me

Dan Fogelberg's "The Leader of the Band," (http://www.leoslyrics.com/listlyrics.php?sid=%2C%F1cz%19%13%D8%A9) and "Same Old Lang Syne" (http://kiml3399.tripod.com/fogelberg.htm) remind me a lot of my lover Gary when we first met in 1981, and also has echoes of my first love in high school (he loved Dan Fogelberg as well).

Way back when (1987-88) after [livejournal.com profile] akienm and I broke up the first time, I refused to listen to Jethro Tull's "Songs from the Wood" (http://www.collecting-tull.com/Albums/Lyrics/SongsFromTheWood.html) because it reminded me too much of him.

More recently, I have a hard time hearing Nora Jones' "Don't Know Why," (http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/norahjones/dontknowwhy.html) since the person who introduced it to me chose not to remain in relationship with me. OTOH, I developed a greater appreciation for Cher's "Believe" (http://www.everythingcher.com/pages/lyrics/believe.htm) as I was recovering from that relationship. It described how I was feeling exactly.
