    Exactly!
    It also can save you from your thoughts and make you a better human.
    Music is life. Music has soul.

    I always wrestle with the fact that music is at it's core, just noise, and we derive so much meaning from it.

    Humans are quirky beasts XD I try not to think about what it is and just appreciate the marvelous art that some people can make out of sound waves.

    music is a godsend!

    songs always seem to bring back a memory too, wether it good or bad it jogs my mind into a thought or memory of what was going on at a specific time of hearing a song.

    Yes that is so true some songs make me sad because it makes me think of my ex. Some songs I really enjoy because it's LGBT related. I even have a song that makes me think of a vivid memory of the ocean for me.

    the ones that trigger sad memories of lets say an ex, make the song have an all new meaning, then when we first heard the song, ones we can never listen to in the same way once the moment has gone and there just but a negative memory from the passed, but the good ones are awesome because everytime we hear that tune we get brought back to that epic moment in time all over!

    That is so true in so many ways. I love music and I'm just glad that we have the power to find all of these awesome songs now.

    Music basically stopped me from committing suicide when I was super depressed a couple years ago

    Everyday I'd go home and just download, and listen for hours at a time, it always cheered me up and was basically the only thing I looked forward to for many years.

    Sort of a waste of time, because I should've been focusing on school, but without it I wouldn't be here, so it was worth it.

    I wouldn't say the 'if not music I wouldn't be here', I probably would, but music helped alot with my depression few years back. Somewhere I could escape and forget everything, listen to those amazing stories and concept albums.. :slight_smile:
