    The first time I took melatonin, I had an extremely vivid dream, and I also realized I was probably dreaming. I remember feeling and looking at textures of walls, and there was a boom box playing beautiful orchestral music. I remember centering my head close to it, and hearing various levels of music being played simultaneously. And I remember thinking, if I wake up, then this is a dream, and if this is a dream, this music is being created by my mind. When I woke up, I was astounded to think that I had some innate talent for generating music in my mind. The problem is, I think I can only tap into this if I'm deep, deep asleep.

      Footnote - 2 nights ago, I had another musical dream. George Harrison played a beautiful, gentle song that he was about to release. I didnt think it was strange that he was alive, or that I was in the room with him. But the song was (to my sleeping self) as profoundly beautiful as Lennon's Imagine, but very different. He played it with an acoustic guitar. There was a slight hint of Edmund Fitzgerald to it (,which drives me crazy because it's too repetitious), the gentleness was akin to Morning Has Broken. Anyway, I before he finished, I was thinking of asking him to play it again. But then my dog down the hallway started scratching himself, which woke me up. At first, I was unhappy about it, then I thought if he hadn't woken me up, my dream would have moved on to other things and my memory of the song probably would have been lost. I wish there was a way to record the songs in my dreams!

    I have high auditory imagery. I thought I was just crazy because I was able to rehearse songs with perfect tune. However this isn't just music. This happens with conversations. Which replays in my head, destroying my mental stability.

    In band and orchestra we’re always told to think a note before playing it and then once we play a note we compare what’s in our head with what’s coming out of our instrument to tune.

      Previous month I was able to receive my first five figure paycheck ever!!! I've been working for this company on-line for 2 years now and I never been happier... They are paying me $95 per hour, and the most desirable thing about it is the fact I am not really that tech-savvy, they only asked for standard knowledge about internet and general typing skill...Amazing thing about this gig is that now I have more free time for my loved ones. I am able to devote quality time with my friends and family and take care of my babies and also going on vacation along with them very frequently. Don't skip this opportunity and try to act quickly. Here’s what I do *explore486­.­c­o­m*

    It seems I have this too. I've always been aware of it and I had figured not everyone has something like this to a similar extent, but having something like this being studied is cool, same thing with my synesthesia. I can imagine different music or songs, perhaps compose some small bits of music despite not having music education, and I can have conversations with people who's voices I know well enough. It's good for memorizing songs because singing them is like having karaoke in the background all the time. I don't really plan to go into music, my artistic needs are met with other things, but it's still pretty neat.
