I’ve always been told that the best way to memorize something is by rhythms and patterns or mnemonic devices. Of course that’s the way a lot of music is structured. There’s something about good rhythms that our brains just like and it develops these memory pathways very easily. Even if you think you’ve forgotten a song, usually if you hear a short excerpt of it the rest will just come back to you. Hopefully there’s a neuroscientist on here that can explain it.
