I love music.I sing a song whenever im lonely,im tired,happy or just to ease my mind. rather than crying i tend to singing.it erases whatever negative emotions i have but of course it depends on the song i have to sing.if its a sad song,the probability is i got to be sad also as im carried away by the lyrics.Music for me makes me feel better.and that maybe the reason i can work or thin k well hearing the music i want or interested with.How does music affects you?

Music is one of the most powerful mental stimulants. Memories, emotions, creativity are all effected by music! Songs can make us cry, laugh, even angry..lol.. Music keeps me sane, it stimulates my creative mind and also provides a form of escape. Even songs that may make me sad serve their purpose in one way or another. Without feeling and emotion we would lead dull listless lives.

How could you say that music heal everyone's heart? most of the brokenhearted tend to hear lonely or sad song but it will only deepen their heartaches as sad song is like a salt rub on a new wound.

I believe brokenhearted has this tendency to listen to sad songs because it helps releasing easily those pain and heartaches for them to move on.

Music affects me like a therapy of relaxation. I listen to music anytime, at work, at home and anywhere. when ever I experience bad mood at work, I listen to my favorite musics over my workstation. At home when relaxing having good time, I turn to slow rock music. Sundays would be Christian songs played by my favorite radio station. To all type of music, I listen to them appreciate them and promote them.

what you say in your response will think that youre living music really. Yeah, i strongly agree with you.what we hear affects us so much just what we see.Music also makes the blind people to see their surroundings colorful making them more enthusiastic despite f their situation.my uncle who s blind through music she learn the color of the things of everything around him. Thats how usic affects him.

Great question, I love music and it affects me in different ways. When I am sad or stressed out I listen to positive music such as Gospel. Especially when it seems that I can't make a way out of no way. When I am putting on makeup and getting ready to go out to a party or the club, I listen to upbeat party music. That makes me be in the right mindset of what and where I am about to go. I listen to mostly neo-soul music. To me that is life music. If I am going through with my partner or I'm missing her I listen to music that reminds me of her. There are so many forms of music that does different things for me. I love most all genres of music. Music makes the world go 'round..lol.

I strongly believe in what you sad.sometimes music gives us hope to be what we want to be happen.like when were praying for something,we tend sing a song for it.My daughter always singing the gospel song"God will make a way",(when there seems to be no way)when there seems to be no way.that gives us hope,courage and belief too.

I also believe that songs and music does influence us a lot. Music does makes me happy and think a lot. When I am sad or depressed or bored, I listen to good songs and this helps to change my mood. I think most people feel better after listening to the songs. Songs are great motivation of my life.
