Default Has anyone ever tried to explain..... music?

Why do we all listen to music? As far as I know, it's not a feeling like, for example, love. We just listen to music.
I can't find a good explanation anywhere

Love.
Get away from it all.
Moody.
Bob your head to.
Entertainment.
Nice beat.
Bored.
Just need something to listen to.
Void out the rest of your surrondings.
Don't have to listen to certain people.
To look kewl.

Without music how will we determine who is cool and who is not cool?....

I would say the main reasons are:
  • We have different reactions to different sounds...often music can relax us and make us feel calm.
  • Listening to music can block out your surroundings, and make you less aware of where you are and what is happening.
  • To draw your mind away from thinking about things you might not want to think about.
  • To fit into groups to be 'cool', or even to show others you have your own 'style'.

I listen to music because it takes my mind off of other things.

Music is the Sound of the Gods. It appleases our emotions giving us the illusion of comfort.

I listen to music because it gives me orgasms..

jokes, it lets you get away. After a long day, you listen to some metallica, and all is well. But only good music, none of that pop crap

Music is an expression of feelings and emotions.
