I'm the same way, just not with ANY song. And some bring with them a stronger recall than others do.

I had one incident that made me think I might have Synesthesia. While listening to the song (now I can't remember what it was) I could not stop seeing green. This happened a couple months ago but not since and for the life of me I can't remember that ever happening before. Is it still Synesthesia if the music evokes vivid memories instead of colors?

I get the memory thing too. I have synesthesia when I listen to music or hear it live and see a variety of colours. Lives shows bring out that more.
If you can taste memories I'm sure synesthesia can make you have memories from sound.

As for me I get such intense emotions from music. Probably not from music I just hear (unless classical) but from the music I listen to and love a lot.

I pace around in a circle and stim more when I have music playing. Usually play the same song over and over as well.

Music makes me jump around. It's an exciting thing to listen to. Its also a good wake up call when you're not ready to get out of bed especially when its early in the morning.

Sorry, but...Another.....one.

Have we arrived from our journey, I must ask you now
At last I can cry cause these sad words are calling me tonight
my eyes bleed for you my star,
my pride and the love of my heart
but why did you have to fly so far
I raged and it tore me apart!
