For the Record

For the Record is an anonymous collection of lyrics that bring someone to mind, and the stories behind them.

Music is special because we get to shape its meaning around our own lives. The same song can mean completely different things to two different people, because we each pour our own memories, moments, and emotions into it.

And while music can attach itself to all kinds of experiences, the most powerful version of that is when it attaches to a person. A parent. A friend. A lover, past or present. A stranger who changed your perspective. We all have those songs that seem like they were written for your relationship with someone.

For the Record is a place to share a lyric that reminds you of someone, and to discover the songs other people hold on to and why. As it grows, For the Record hopes to bring people closer through music.
