Does anyone else listen to a song and start visualizing how the instrument was played when it was recorded?

I find this very awesome, I just kind of discovered it. Let me explain.

When listening to a song on open backed headphones you hear the instruments spatially around you, which allows you to 'pick' an instrument (or vocals) from a song and listen to the details of that specific instrument.

On a good recording I can totally get lost in the music, and listening to those specific details, like a chord on a guitar being played in a certain way, or the way a singer speaks the vowels. With so much detail and sound separation I can just visualize the way the song was recorded.

Anyone else that does this?
