Prior to being diagnosed with HSAM I always wondered: Am I just a sensitive person? I’ve always been deeply impacted by things. I’ll remember how I was feeling at a certain time very vividly. When I’m recalling these memories I’m really back there, emotionally. What do you mean by ‘emotionality’? For a given date, I could probably tell you something that happened to me on that day, where I was in life, and the emotions attached to that. Plus, there’s a lot of emotionality tied into everything that I experience. So, do you remember everything? I certainly don’t remember every single second of every single day, but on average I recall more about my experience of the world than other people. Science of Us spoke with Joey DeGrandis, a 30-year-old New Yorker who has HSAM, to learn more about life with the condition. They are master autobiographers able to remember exactly what they were doing, thinking, and, perhaps most important, feeling at any given moment in time.

I loved that song, and I loved her for showing it to me. “I first really got to know John Prine’s music when my then-girlfriend, now my wife, sent me her first cassette tape when we were dating, and it started with ‘Paradise’ by John Prine.
The first edition of Prine covers was released in 2010, featuring Justin Vernon, Conor Oberst, My Morning Jacket, and Drive-By Truckers.Īt the time of Prine’s passing, Carlile noted the following to late-night television host Steven Colbert: No further details regarding Broken Hearts and Dirty Windows’ second volume have been announced, except it is currently available for pre-order and will be via released later this year via Prine’s own Oh Boy Records.
I REMEMBER EVERYTHING SERIES
February saw the Grammy-winning artist release a poignant take on John Denver’s “Take Me Home Country Roads,” which serves as the theme for CBS series Clarice, set one year after the events of classic horror film The Silence of the Lambs. The acoustic performance continues Carlile’s streak of stirring unadorned covers of late. The “In Memoriam” segment performance ultimately served as a preview of a just-released Carlile studio recording of the track for the upcoming Prine tribute album Broken Hearts and Dirty Windows: Songs of John Prine, Vol 2. On Sunday evening, March 14, Brandi Carlile awed Grammy Award viewers with a stirring rendition of “I Remember Everything, John Prine’s posthumously-released final recording.
