No, music does not effect how we live.  It may affect how we live. but it doesn't effect anything.  Go back to your dictionary.

I'm a teen, and I don't think music affects a teen's mind. I listen to "depressing" music, and I am perfectly happy. It really depends on the person though. If the person listening to the music is already depressed, it could have some influence on them. I don't think it would be so influencing that one would kill themselves because of a song...

Yes, loud, noisy music will raise my pulse rate, while slow music will, most definately, lower it. At times, I have to shut off the noisy stuff to relax.

It's a proven fact that dreary weather will cause dreary moods. When the weather isn't so pleasant, I turn on lots of lights around the house, and play a lot of upbeat music. Before long, my mood is much better.

There are no bad effects of music.  It helps you feel better or get over some thing personal.  Also some music make you feel good.

Music is a good way of reflecting or influncing your mood. When I hate the world i listen to Simple Plan/Green Day, when I wanna fell better about myself I listen to Kelly Clarkeson/Delta Goodrem. It helps let out all your emotions.. music is the best.

a change in weather creates a difference in the hormonal secretion thereby affecting the mood.eg.in summer if the power goes off...the mind gets agitated.and in the winter u feel more sleepy.

I think it has a lot todo with the fact that we are very verbal. Base rythms can perhaps even strike a resemblance with our mother heart beat before we where born or when growing up. I know that animals grow very relaxed at hearing a heartbeat and feeling a little warmth.\n\nFor the rest of the tones in the music and song it sounds pretty much like emotional expressions from humans. Even though you don't understand another persons language you create an opinion on whether he or she is angry, happy, sad etc. Hardrock could perhaps be anger and ballads could be heart ache. When you have a stress reaction you prefer harder, faster music and when you're relaxed and sleepy you'd perhaps prefer something more slow and silent.

I did  a course on the Science of music at university as part of my Physics degree, and music is defined as "A series of noises that cause an emotional response". So there is no hard and fast definition of what usic is or why it does what it does.\n\nHowever, it is believed that certain sounds at certain frequencies can cause certain bio-feedback responses. Just as the sound of a child screaming grates most people, the sound of a wolf howling is eerie, and the sound of laughter is infectious, so too with music.\n\nSo part of music may be evolutionary - certain sound frequencies, however embedded, cause certain natural reactions in the body. These are experienced by the listener.\n\nAs well as this, we "learn" certain sounds/combinations of sounds, and relive past experiences and pleasures with them. just as the taste of a food or a smell can remind you of a loved one or a situation you once encountered, so can certain sounds, or combinations of sounds. We can feel nostalgia and a warm, loving glow if we hear music from our early childhhood, as we can associate this with the feelings then.\n\nCertainly, the speed of the music (tempo) seems to play an important part too - fast music fills us with energy (possibly making us angry), while slower music can relax us more - so long as it is not dis-cordant.\n\nthe truth is that it is not a hard and fast science, and varies from individual to individual, but the theories above will paly a part in the appreciation of an individual towards "music".

Hormones and chemical changes. Anything chemical can mess around with your normal moods and physical/emotional feelings.

I've never read anything drawing a direct link between dinner and mood the following morning, however if you're eating that late at night you aren't getting the ideal 7-8 hours sleep per night, which will definitely affect mood.  Diet does affect sleep patterns, which in turn affect mood, so if you're eating that late stick to light meals with only whole-grain carbs and no red meat.  Eat your big meal at lunch.

Hi u\n\nWEll like we all mayb know. We have emotions, whn we r happy we always kinda see things possively in front of us n more into "sound goods" music. Its the same thing about bein sad n being full of energy n more emotions. Whn we sad we tend to remain sad uptill something dont cheer us up. Listenin to sad songs whn we r sad is like wat the mood wants. Untill somethnings comes in, happy moods. \n\nI love sad songs, not only listen to thm whn i am sad but i pay more attention to the words which could help me.

yeah i do it most of the time. Stress reliever no, but sure makes me feel a tiny bit better. It also depends on the song I'm humming, for example if I'm working extra late overtime I'm humming "woman love-missing" songs and that is not a stress reliever lol!

Moods and emotion are alike, there is not much difference. A mood is affected by what a person feels and thinks (emotions). Its hard to say which comes first.\nIt could be more traditional to say "what mood are you in"? or "you are in a particular mood", what's wrong ect.\nMost often the word chosen is mood. (moods can have serious looks, sad looks, even happy looks, so a mood can have in general an facial expression which may suggest the emotional thinking of a person.
