Who doesn’t know the feeling? Something brings back the memory of a song you haven’t heard since 2009. Back then it was playing on TV all the time. You look it up on YouTube. It totally has those 2000s vibes. All the comments are also “omgz I just remembered this song after 15 years !!”.

What even is the name for this phenomenon? Is there a community to share this stuff?

    For me it often goes one step further. I remember a song or maybe hear it somewhere and think what a great tune! Haven’t heard that in forever.

    And then what happens is it triggers a flood of other memories from that same time period when it was popular. Then, just as I’m starting to get all wistful, I suddenly recall how I used to hate that song! Like wtf?!?
