Yes, I've gone through a few periods in my life that were so
depressing the music in the background will never be resurrected or
resolved for me, and in fact can still be triggers that catch me off-
guard and reinvent the feeling... not a happy moment.  I feel lucky I
had so much Haw'n music to fall back on... apparently it is so
timeless it doesn't stick in any particular time-slot or emotional
groove.
