Is this rare? I've always had this ability, assumed it was similar to what everyone else meant when they "got a song stuck in their head."

But I've also learned many people don't have internal "voiced" thoughts either, so there may be more differences to the internal experience that people just don't talk about.

Yes, I was shocked when I learned not everyone has an inner dialogue. Like, how do you think?? :)

Do you know of a clinical / medical name for this? I'd love to do more research. You just seem to be describing "full playback" something I've always been able to do, and frankly took for granted, thinking it was a default. (btw I don't mean to take anything away from your experience!)
