Stories: your song, your memory

A few notes and you're back. In the car with your dad, at your first festival, in the kitchen where you said goodbye to someone. Ten years later you still know what it smelled like and what was going through your head.

Music by Heart collects exactly these moments: short, true stories about what a particular song, album or concert means to someone, and why. No genre snobbery – Joy Division, ABBA, Bach or a brass band at a wedding all count the same.

You can share your story anonymously; name and e-mail are optional. Selected stories will be published on the website and on Instagram.
