Hide and Seek

I walked into my friend’s office today and while we were chatting, a song started playing that caused me to have this intensely emotional reaction and I have no idea why. I’ve always reacted strongly to music but I can usually place significant-to-me songs. This song (“Hide and Seek” by Imogen Heap) was obviously important to me at one time in my life but I can’t figure out why. I’ve been thinking about it all day, and it’s been on repeat since I got home, but I haven’t deciphered why this song is making me weepy and angry and confused all at the same time. It’s been an interesting thought process, though, and it’s made me wonder if other people also keep playlists of songs that are guaranteed to gut them or if I’m just a weirdo (I say as I add “Hide and Seek” to my Hillary Feels her Feels playlist).
