Coco was a very accurate film, more accurate than you might think.

I'd like to give extra credit to Daniel Levitin in his book "This is your Brain on Music: The Science of a Human Obsession" for pointing me in the right direction.
Especially this passage from page 231-2:
"As the disease [Alzheimer's] progresses, memory loss becomes more profound. Yet many of these old-timers can still remember how to sing the songs they heard when they were fourteen. Why fourteen? Part of the reason we remembers songs from our teenage years is because those years were times of self-discovery, and as a consequence, they were emotionally charged; in general, we tend to remember things that have an emotional component because our amygdala and neurotransmitters act in concert to "tag" the memories as something important. Part of the reason also has to do with neural maturation and pruning; it is around fourteen that the wiring of our musical brains is approaching adultlike levels of completion."
