    Each time period (week, year etc) is a smaller proportion of your life.

    Anything that happened when I was much younger can’t be resolved easily to the nearest year, unless I can identify a specific immutable event like a specific birthday.

      I’ve found making playlists based on music releases from each year helps with this… for me I can almost immediately remember a year or time period just by hearing a song

        Quite a few tracks - does one say that anymore? - I am convinced are 1980s are actually 1990s. I’m Gen X so I should be getting that distinction right!

          You can just use the songs you listened to most in a given year too. Assuming you’re mainly listening to old music, my original suggestion probably won’t work.
