simple question, complex answer. I'll have to admit it's the nostalgia that gets me. When I listen to it it brings back good/bad memories. What about you? |
||||||||
|

|
its an addiction... but a very good one :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I like it mainly as noise to drown out the backgound sounds whilst I'm working. I also like it as it makes painting minatures less boring. And it can be quite emotional too, which is usually good. |

making music is better then listening to music,..at least,....for me that is |

music is a way of life, let you think more intensive about various things. the most of peoples understand music under alternation or/and relaxation, for dancing or singing and thats the sad thing on the whole music scene... |

I feel bad for people who can't hear changes in pitch....so music does not move them at all.... |

man....thats a huge question. i like music for so many reasons on so many levels. i got into music at an early age, started with piano [6], guitar [7], jioned bands at 14 just cause i hated sport. i used to spend sport afternoons at school locked in the music room with a couple of other like minded mates jamin. it is a way of life. some people are just not into it. others like music, but dont really appreciate it fully. a like all aspects of it. i'll watch a doco on any musician or anything related to the industry. cant get enough! thorpe |

i listen to music to drown out the sound of the maniac voices urging me to jump out the open window to my left |
||||||||

it's a chemical thing... like sex i spose |

1. music is like therapy 2. music is the most natural way to express myself, either by making it, or some other way which i won't discuss 3. listening to other peoples' music is a good way to find out what they're like inside (unless they're cheaters who don't make their own music). |

chemical sex? do you stick your cock into a baggie of amphetamines of something? |
||||||||

There is no reason for me liking music. I just do, and I do love music so. |

Emotional ressonance is fun |
||||||||

Same reason people look at paintings or eat certain foods--pleasurable sensation. |
||||||||
|
|

its like an extra way to feel emotion, and it just sounds nice :-) |

to me, music is a way of letting my thoughts and feelings come out. it compliments my every day life, and i feel very strongly about it. i love it...i love everything about it. it's like when you're in love with some person and you're asked "why do you love her/him ?" it's damn near impossible to answer. you just love this person. everything about him/her. i don't love music because it's got crunchy beats or autechre make cool track titles; i love music for what it is. you know, music as a whole, everything about it. this reply refers to the music i like, not the crappy mainstream mtv shite. i hate everything about that, and love everything about the music i like... |

wow great answers guys... i would like at least one answer from everyone on this board. that would be great p |

great topic... for me music is coded spirit or emotion, an intuitive method of communicating soul. listening to music feels good, healthy, healing, peacful, ecstatic, horrible, painful, inward, outward, colors, sensation of any sort, life, flowers and birds, rocks, fire, demons, angels... gods and goddesses. i listen to music to feel what i want to feel. |

I dunno, I really don't... but it is one of the most important things in my life... I always have music playing... I dunno, it makes me happy, sad, energetic, it uplifts... I guess it's just theraputic... it helps me feel emotions... but it's more then emotional, music also expresses different ideas in lyrics... so, for me it stimulates emotions, and my brain, which I guess really is both in the brain, but I hope you get my drift... it simulates my intellect, and my emotions... sometimes both, sometimes separately... nice topic by the way!! |

I can't even put it into words... everything everybody else above said, times ten! Music is all I really care about, come to think of it... everything I do and love revolves around it somehow... |

Life without music is boring. I, like others here, am addicted, and proud of it. When I go for walks, drives, rides, if there isn't music playing I get restless. It's gotten to a point where I can't fuction properly without it. When I listen to music I feel like i'm going with some kind of flow, when it's off I feel like I'm stalled or something. It's hard to explain. I think Nietzsche said it best.. "Without music, life would be a mistake." Truer words have never been spoken. |

it helps me understand the world around me and more importantly, myself, better. |

me too Ophecks, if I'm not listening to some music or making some music, I have some in my head. |
||||||||

Can't believe some people put down background music or to drown something out. I listen to albumns like most people watch TV shows. I love the art, the imagination, and creativity, the boundlessness and personal expression. The feelings and utter passion that I hear conveyed so deeply, sometimes so simply. It's the most amazing thing in my life. It's so free. The simpilicity of making music allows almost everyone to express these things. |
||||||||

Yeah, I'm not a peripheral listener hardly at all. Concentration on that one thing. |

I know what you mean, many times the lights go out and I just lie down and become absorbed in an album. On occasion it becomes background, but that's usually if I have company or whatever. Narkotic: I think it would definitely be great to get a response from everybody. Even if it's just a single sentance or phrase. Everybody has to have something to add. |

jabizzy-"listening to other peoples' music is a good way to find out what they're like inside " nope....i make crap music, i could do better if i had the time/equipment/money, but id really not want anyone to judge me by my music. background noise- yes that is a good reason for listening to music, just so long as its not distracting, and i find most is, unless its crap and then i wouldnt listen to it at all Apt zet-"I listen to albumns like most people watch TV shows." i watch more tv shows than i listen to music, sure i like hearing it and i usually have a tune in my head during the day, but im amazed how much influence music has had on most of you- it is not life! the world does not revolve around it, there are other things in life! Music is relaxing and entertaining, but so is a nice bath or movie or whatever....the aquiring of cds can be addictive and of cource we should have someone to aspire to ie atrists whom can easily be immatated if you know how...but there is more to life then that, you must get out of your bedrooms and smell the world..or something like that |

For me, music is about emotions. Some music is to dance to; to express the music with your body. Other music gives emotions without the need to dance to it. It's like some music of especially Aphex Twin woke up emotions of myself I didn't know yet; that's the fascinating thing of "experimental" music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
To me music is just addiction. I need addictions and this is cheaper than heroin. I prefer listening to music to having to communicate with people. |

Not exactly the answer you were looking for, I guess... |
||||||||

i like music because a friend from school told me i would be cooler if i listen to music,and i would attract more girls.. |

Bob Mcbob I think your taking the "addiction" descriptions a litte to seriously. I think of collecting music like some people collect stamps or baseball cards. It doesn't mean someone doesn't have a life or needs to get out. Your writing stuff in. Talking excess, something different. If you see a post someday that says "Help my wife left me and I lost my job because I listened to too much music", then you got your arguement. |

|
|
so, was it true? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry if i sounded too harsh....didnt mean to |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually: bob is completelly right in my case. I am an addict. I have to collect/ listen to the music even when I don't really feel like it will change my life. Most of the time it's just out of habit, rarely it's flashes of new horizons. I get awithdrawal syndromes when separated etc... |
||||||||
|
|

I don't know. It can be incredibly infuriating. In fact, I think the majority of music to me is infuriating, annoying, dull or frustrating. But, very occasionally, I'll hear a piece of music that is perfect, that really "hits the nail on the head" and that I don't think could be improved in any way. Funnily enough, the last piece of music that I heard that did that to me was AFX's Flow Coma. That track makes me feel sick when I listen to it, it's just so damn DIRTY!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a way to extract feelings it an addiction it's pure if there wasn't music there would've been more stress and less emotions i guess. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I dont know I just love it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
waves of feelings... most of the time, my feelings are more according to the music i'm listening to or having in my head than to what's actually happening in the reality... it makes life more beautiful... |
