Music is a universal language. It is exquisitely emotionally evocative. It is a fundamental part of our culture. What sounds good to some of us may not sound good to others. Although music is abstract, it still manages to touch a universal nerve. It has the power to heal and the power to bring people together. Turn on your favorite tunes from yesteryear and say hello to the ghost of your younger self.
Why are we instinctually drawn to certain music?
We are drawn in for a variety of emotional reasons and personal tastes. Perhaps it is nostalgia for the past, an association some music has with a personally significant time or place. No two people are exactly are alike; each of us responds to music in a way that’s personal to who we are. The music you love can shape your life and make you who you are.
