Why do we like music ? Does anyone have any scientific explanation ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there is none. |

Cause it reflekts all aspects of our emotional spectrum. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Because it gives us that emotion we seek the moment of listening. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
But, what I really wanted to know is why music gives us emotions... |

sido wins. end of discussion. |

Good question: I think we get certain emotions because we associate the way the music sounds (tempo, notes/chords used, timbre, etc.) with something we might have heard or experienced before in our lives (???) This is a good question but extremely hard to answer. |

oh, why why why, oh, why oh why oh why? at least, its not the end of the world!! |

well, it brings us like in another world, through the aural stimuli... aurally we feel in another world, an escape from our everyday reality - i think if we loved the reality we live in, we wouldn't care that much about music... nor about other forms of art, nor about travels, etc. and even if we love the reality we live in, we like it because it brings a change - because it makes us learn more things, brings us more experience, so that we're more prepared to encounter something similar which would "attack" us in some way... now, sometimes the world in which music bring us isn't pleasant at all. why do we like to, for example, listen to frightening music, read frightening books, watch frightening movies? i think it's for the reason in the second paragraph, and because of the unwedging between the "fake" world those stimuli bring us in and the reality we know that the worlds music bring us in isn't reality, we're still aware that we are safe and can escape it by pressing the button or closing the book - but still it can bring us more experience, through the fake reality it brings... a bit like a simulator. don't know if it was already obvious so i would have dashed through an open door or not, neither if i was understable or not, sorry... =/ |

buh music just is. much like life eh. cant bother to explain these things, youd just reach a dead end eventually. guess thats why i cant bother questioning either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't know if i'm right either. it's just an hypothesis. |
||||||||
|

|
|

||||||||
|
|

All our sences triggers emotions. Seeing hearing touching smelling etc... Music is just sounds like any other really. It all comes down to personal taste , some people like the sound of for example a race car and some people don't . Some people like to take a big bite of a lemon and some people would never do such a thing . Same with music , its just a emotion trigger among the rest . The strange thing is that certain harmonies produce the same kind of emotions in all of us , like in a soundtrack to a horror movie you could never have for example Super Mario Bros theme or something. Or maybe you could ? Many horror movies have childish melodies to produse a scary atmosphere , maybe because when you where a child you where more likely to get scared of something then now and your brain asociates certain melodies with childhood. |

Same with action movies. During an action sequence the music is always a bit faster and more dynamic so that our pulse raise. In John Who's "Face Of" theres a action scene wich have "Somewhere over the rainbow" in the backround. Its a cool scene and you get the anti violence message but your pulse doesn't raise at all , no adrenaline flow in your body . |

The Christian answer: Because of God, now stop asking such trivial questions and worship Jesus. |
