This morning while eating breakfast a song that I didn’t listen to since few months came up in my head for absolutely no reason and that made me wonder why songs or memories reappear randomly, without any particular reason..

I have a theory that it’s your brain trying to talk to you. I once had a song pop up randomly too, a song I hadn’t heard in years or thought about. It bugged me so much I realized I should look up the lyrics. It turns out that the song was motivating me (it talked about not being afraid and just going what I was after). It just so happened that I was contemplating our big move to another city. I guess it was bothering me more than I realized hence the song pop up.
Same here i would like to know. I woke up humming a song i don’t remember listening to recently
This happens almost every morning to me. I’ve even made a Spotify playlist of all the “Morning Ear Worm” songs.
I haven’t found many patterns but there is one which happens frequently for me.
There is something about the key and/or chord progressions which are very similar to some other song I like, but it usually takes me a few days to connect the dots.
Sometimes it will be two unrelated songs that get stuck in my head for a few days, and when I finally give in and look at the sheet music or watch a YouTube tutorial on how the play the song, it turns out they are incredibly similar.
Not a professional in that matter, but recently heard about similar experience. My explanation is that you heard this song in the similar ambient environment. Lets say month ago you overslept and decided not to hurry at school/work. Mixed your playlist and started to eat muesli with milk and at the same time you heard your neighbors talking outside. Your neurons recorded all that without you knowing.
Month passed, you overslept again, you are not in the hurry, eating your muesli and neighbors talking outside. Something missing??? Oh yeah “su-summer summer time, sumer time sadness”
