Does music influences you emotionally?

This is the place for readers of poetry. Discuss poetry and literary art. You can also discuss music here, including lyrics. Also, you can discuss poets themselves, in addition to poetry.

Of course it does! RnB relaxes me while praise and worship take me to another level of the spiritual world.

It calms me down when i feel anxious sometimes. When I'm sad and listen to sad songs, it makes things worse so i can cry. When I'm happy, feel good music makes me feel even happier.

Music definitely influences my emotions. I mostly listen to Congolese rhumba, and there is just something in them that make me nostalgic.

Yes! Yes! Yes! I read something in a post once that said that more sensitive people (people more likely to suffer from depressive episodes etc.) are more likely to get goosebumps and/or shivers from listening to music.

Yes, because several experts claimed that listening to music relaxes our moods. Whether or what genre I would prefer to listen with, this will definitely impact us. Indeed, music is life.

Of course, music affects our emotional state. It gets to our neurons and functions in our feelings that allows us to react In certain songs. I would often feel it when listening to inspiring and love songs.

Music doesn't directly influence my emotions. If I listen to a song, it won't directly change how I feel about something. However, if I am already feeling sad or happy, listening to a song that is pointing in the same direction may help influence me to feel given emotion stronger. I won't change my emotion from one to another by listening to a song, but I will feel a stronger emotion if I am in the right mood if that makes sense.

Music hundred percent influences me emotionally. I am a music lover as I love listening to songs every time specially if I am doing nothing, I just sing songs or listen to music. For example, if I hear or sing the song Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton. This song is a tribute of his son who slipped in a 53rd floor. It was a very emotional song.
