Do you use imagination or feelings in listening to a song?

I listen to alot of movie soundtracks, so when I went up listening to say.... Mona Lisa - The Matrix Reloaded, I think of myself beating the crap out of a whole bunch of people or just getting stuck in a high-speed chase on the freeway.

I have a similar when I listen to songs, too. I get caught into the emotion of the song, and I'll start thinking of things currently going on in my life (or in the future) that correspond to those feelings. Sometimes I won't have specific feelings about things, I'll have more general feelings, like calmness or anger.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
