A lot of my memory is based on Music. So if I hear a song I get all of my memories of both the things that have happened in my life while that song was playing, and where I first heard the song (if I heard the song in a movie or show I can say/picture what was happening in that when the song was playing as well). To the point where many have said it's a photographic memory based in song. Importantly, if there wasn't music playing then I only remember the rough details instead of pinpoint details when there is music.
Now if only it worked for studying, then I would have been able to listen to music while studying and remember all the shit I was supposed to instead of being terrible at tests.
I have the opposite of this. I get songs stuck in my head all the time, and they fluctuate depending on which room of the house I'm in. If I go back to the kitchen to get something, I'll hear the same song I had stuck in my head the last time I was in there. It's completely useless.
