This might sound long-winded, but here goes:
Do you guys have a song that invokes a very unique feeling in you, good or bad, that doesn't exist outside of that one song?
For me, it's:

The atmosphere this song produces puts me in such a bittersweet, nostalgic trance. I was a senior in high-school when this song started to make its rounds, so for me it represents that grace period where I started feeling like an adult, but was still young enough to be as reckless and carefree as I could.
It's something I'll never get back, but every once in a while, this song let's me come close.
Anything by Carissa's Wierd. It's like this weird sense of warm emptiness following emotional release that never happened.

It's weird how this song got so popular for parties and drinking, when it's actually pretty depressing. Although I miss when Hip hop was making "bangers" and party music that didn't have the played out trap drums that every song has now. With that said, Minnesota by Lil Yachty gives me a similar feeling to what you described. This past summer was the best of my life and everyone was playing that song the whole time, and I just think of everyone who made it great. Unfortunately things are shitty now, but when I listen to Minnesota I feel alright. I love my Motorola.

This is the most beutiful peice of music I've heard. It also brings out many emotions for me that I find hard to feel sometimes.
The title of this song, "Dream of the Return" says what this song is about. But its more than the title. You can tell that Bob Curnow put so much care and emotion into this song to truely show that music can make you feel.
I know its only insturmentals, but holy shit. The trombone feature in this song makes it feel as if the player is singing to the audience. Rather than playing the instrument itself.
This song makes me feel so many things. Sadness, inspiration, etc. Its such a masterpeice. By far the best Ballad I've ever heard.

binge listened after my mom died no idea why the sad droning just got me nothing invokes the same representation of death for me. vid is good too
For me it's Golden by My Morning Jacket and Well Thought Out Twinkles by Silversun Pickups. They're both so cathartic in ways beyond what I can describe in words.
I wouldn't really call nostalgia for your childhood a unique feeling. espec when its just from a song that you were actually listening to then.

Late night numbness where you're in between awake and asleep and everything is saturated in the yellow glow of dull light bulbs.

Overlooked because of Hurt which is a shame. Beautiful from start to finish and the most genuine vocals I've ever heard, you can even hear the cracks as he tries to hit higher pitches.
And yeah I know it's not his song but it might as well be, the original pales in comparison.

This one song is just so unusually weird to me, I can't tell if it's epic, sad or dark. The riffs and song structure are unlike any other, it's also before CoF went to shit during the 2000s.
