What's a song you associate with your favorite photograph?

Not associated with any photo in particular, but I started this year listening to the Restaurant album by Mexican rockers Jumbo a lot. They're really one of my all-time favorite Mexican bands.

On that album, there’s a song called "Fotografía", which literally translates to “Photograph.” This song isn’t really about sadness as much as it is about living.

It’s about time passing, moments slipping away, and learning to sit with what comes and goes.
