That's not weird at all, Jeffro. I feel the same way and I blame it on having such a
strong sensitivity to music. (I can't carry a tune, but dearly love good music!)

Some of it is triggering, definitely, but (with a little medication) the sensitivity is eased a
bit. A small dose of the appropriate antidepressant takes the edge off for me.

Christmas songs are nostalgic for me; love songs also; classical music will cause a
shift in feeling tone for me, so if one form gets to me too much, I'll stop it and listen
to something classical. That helps. (I know one person who, when the children get
too rambunctious, will put on her earphones and listen to music!) It's a necessary
component of life for many of us, I think.

Take care.
