    For me, early 2000s contemporary Christian music.

    I wasn’t allowed to listen to secular music. So I made a lot of emotional connections to contemporary Christian music. Which is pretty cringe in retrospect. Whenever I’m reminded of it, I have a pretty conflicted set of emotions about it.

    I usually only listen to that music that I listened to in my early teens when I feel like wallowing in self pity. But I can’t deny that I feel extremely nostalgic about it. It makes me wish I would have made those same emotional connections to music that wasn’t associated with really disturbing fundamentalist Christian ideologies and propaganda.
