What is your reasoning behind listening to music? Music makes me happy, makes me want to boogie, soothes my soal, makes life just- all around easier. Why do you listen to music? Is there any particular artist or song that brings back and old memory for you- whether it be good or bad?

I listen to music to keep in calm and relaxed. I think music does make me happier. Even if the song is sad, I still feel better. I can find a lot of songs to relate too. I currently have 918 songs in my library, but according to my smart playlist of never played songs I haven't actually listened to 275 of them completely. Either way I am happy with music. FIt makes me a better person.

Haha. Does that not mean that you listen to music primarily for the beat? Or maybe just to hear one or two versus?

At the moment the number dropped to 270. It means that I haven't listened to the song from start to finish. Normally I skip half way through.

The reason behind listening to music is that it makes me comfortable and relaxed.when i am listening to the music,i can't help singing and boogieing with the song.That is a great feeling.Music gives me forget unhappy things and sad things.Above all,music is a part of my life just like fish can not exsit without water.

I listen to it because it lifts me up,no sense in having dark music.From classical to electronic.Billy Idol-eyes without a face strangely brings back obsolete memories and feelings,I'm trying to find out their origin.Very interested in this memory business lol.

i love listenin to music period just because it has always been a big part in my life...but recently ive been listening to it more when i have heartache or stress. for some reason it just makes me feel better and puts me in a happier mood. i think its because i relate my situation with the lyrics and realize that im not the only one with these issues.

I love music tremendously. I don't think I'll be able to live in a world without music. I'll do within the first hour. I am always picking up my ipod at home every few hours to listen to a song or a bunch of songs. I like to listen to anything. Actually right now as i'm typing i'm listening to Fergie's Glamorous. It's really good. But music just makes me happier and makes me feel like I could do anything. I also listen to music when I've just had a fight with someone and I need to calm down. Right now in my ipod i have 307 songs and i think i've listened to all of them at least once.

My reason behind listening to music is to calm myself and it is a way of relaxing. I also listen to music when I get bored or I got nothing to do at home.

I listen to music for primarily the same reason...it just seems to make everything better. The music that brings back the most memories for me is hip-hop and r&b music from the early 90's, I miss those days.
