I think its something of a learned skill, but also some natural ability comes into it. I have friends that can recognize a song by only a few bars of music, I have trouble remembering a band name or a song name even after being told a dozen times.

Same here. Maybe that's why I find it very difficult to read long walls of text. Punctuation, the build of the sentence, paragraph breaks, etc, are very important to me. And is also why I often update the structure of an ebook.
