Musical question

Songs that, when you first heard them, reminded you of things that hadn't happened to you yet.

Do you have any?

(This post brought to you by "Diamonds & Rust," which I first heard when I was 18, and "Killing Me Softly," which I first heard when I was 8, I think [ETA: I must have been 11 or 12, because the version I heard didn't come out until 1973])

I was going to say, something by Kate Bush, but it's hard to separate whether the song caused the feeling it would come to represent or whether it found the event it was meant for.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I can see how Kate Bush would inspire such experiences.
