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.
