music and association

[ssampier]

I was eating lunch in a cafe today. The cafe owners had the radio on in the background. As usual, I made no particular mind of it. I was having a casual conversation with my colleagues from work. All the sudden, I noticed that the song "Ruby Tuesday" came on. Immediately, all I could think of was the movie, "Children of Men."

This was odd, since I had seen Children of Men only once in my life. More importantly I never attached any significance to the song "Ruby Tuesday" before.

It was an odd feeling for sure. Anyone else suddenly find themselves day-dreaming over a song you never particularly noticed before?

There's a song by Radiohead (off the OK Computer album... Can't remember the name) that always makes me think of 28 Days later. Which is odd, because the song wasn't actually in the movie.
