Musical State of Mind

A brain can store over hundreds of songs and in some ways trigger different feelings connected with it. Think of it this way, you're driving and decide to change the radio, it changes to one of your favorite songs, this can instantly change your mood. One of the reasons why most of us turn to music in a time of need is for those feelings; to be able crank up the music after a long day  in order to take you to a different state of mind. The same goes for songs that hold a similar place in your heart , the ones that bring you to an emotional side, the ones that take you back to a place you might never want to revisit.In times it can also make you overthink why that song makes you feel the way it does, what specifically connect you to that song and not others. Scientifically its not known why people connect to music in certain ways, theoretically a sad song is suppose to make you sad , but this might not always be the case.

  3. Music is an art: it has a story to be told. It has a message behind the piece and it can make you feel certain emotions
