Why do I like sad songs so much even when I'm not sad?
I love sad music, I've been told to much. Literally had a friend say “why do you do this to yourself. Example from my top 5 favorite bands is Modest Mouse. Now to answer your question, it is because sad music usually is the realist and purist in my opinion. The best songs ever written in my opinion are those that make you feel sorrow, nostalgia, and grief. There is a beauty and necessity of pain and sadness…. For instance some love song can bring negative feelings because God, how do I still miss her? What is she doing? Her laugh and smile�� then in a instance you are able to almost relive some of y'alls happiest shared moments. You remember, its up to you to feel sour about reliving it… I say embrace it, it happened and will forever be apart of you.Sad negative lyrics can be political also forcing you to think about it… which is good. I hope I'm not alone feeling this way either. It's important to REMEMBER bad and good, and to think about current global/political issues.Kendrick Lamars recent album (DAMN) I think years from now will be renowned genius. Off that album, song- pride“Now, in a perfect world, I probably won't be insensitiveCold as December, but never remember what winter didI wouldn't blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laidSeems like I point the finger just to make a point, nowadaysSmiles and cold stares, the temperature goes thereIndigenous disposition, feel like we belong hereI know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk backThe hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost thatSick venom in men and women overcome with prideA perfect world is never perfect, only filled with liesPromises are broken and more resentment come aliveRace barriers make inferior of you and ISee, in a perfect world, I'll choose faith over richesI'll choose work over bitches, I'll make schools out of prisonI'll take all the religions and put 'em all in one serviceJust to tell 'em we ain't shit, but He's been perfect, world”
Good, catchy songs from the '50's and '60's?
Heck, even music from the '40's is great. I love the music from these years and have been listening to the genres (Doo-Wop, Surf Rock, Pop, etc.) for years and I would like some more catchy and just good songs from these years in your opinion. Best answer to the one who gives me the most songs that I haven't listened to yet. Thanks a ton.
Are social norms mostly caused by emotions?
Autism does not cause a deficit in empathy. Rather, in many cases, it causes a decreased ability to understand social cues, such as facial expressions and body languages. If an autistic person knows you're sad, he will be just as likely to empathize with you as anyone else. But he may not know, if the only sign is your expression. People with autism also have the same range of emotions as neuro-typical folks. They feel sad, angry, happy, surprised, confused, scared, and so on. They fall in love; they get turned on; they feel compassion; they want to nurture and be nurtured... They're people, not robots.Social norms are mostly caused by multiple people having to live together in communities. Cultures develop them to stop cultures from fragmenting. This is most-likely because our species evolved to its present state living in small, kin-based tribes. We are pack animals, and we behave like pack animals.
Does anyone else HATE sad music.?
i hate sad music. and a lot of that stupid horrible music that teenagers listen to these days. i dont want to hear sad music ever. it sounds like the world is coming to an end tomorrow and i dont need to hear that ever. people say people like to hear sad music when they are sad but that doesnt make any sense. i am not an emotional person but if i was sad then sad music would only make it worse. not better. unfortunately theres no place to run from this **** because it will always be played in movies, tv, etc.
Most of the time I listen to sad songs. Does this affect my behaviour and thinking in day-to-day life?
Let me get this straight, you asked the wrong question. It is because of your thinking and behaviour that you listen to sad songs.Our moods ( to be technical, its our hormones ) are that which shifts our likings. A recent love failure is bound to make the people involved, to feel bad and listen to so toned songs, for it reflects them best. I am pretty sure that you would loathe the idea of sad song being played at an EDM night, it just don’t fit your current mental state.Our emotions are a strong current for our life, and judging by ‘MOST OF THE TIME’ part in your question, I would rather say that you are a teenager ( So sorry if I am wrong, but adults know not to give a damn ).Adolescence is the hardest part of your life bud. You will be disliked by everyone for you character fits neither of a child nor of an adult, but learn to cruise through this for soon you too will learn not to give a damn.But never forget to ask yourself ( or Quora as in this case ) such crucial questions about yourself, for they are moments of self discovery, always question your motives and thoughts, they will light you to who you really are.By this ,I mean in no way that from now on you should only listen only to pleasant songs, move through your ups and downs recognising them.
Why do I like sad music when I’m a happy person?
More obviously, if we were happy all the time, how could we appreciate that happiness? Wouldn’t familiarity breed boring complacency?At the same time if we happen to be actors, we might have learned to reach into the depths of our being and find hidden elements which allow us to play characters we’d rather not meet in bright daylight, let alone in a dark alley.Then again, when we were very, very little some of the first things we learned were happiness and sadness: what they were, how to recognise them and how to express them.Roughly, everything we’ve experienced or sought or sought to avoid since is some combination of those two, in endless infinite variety. Broadly that means both states, experiences, qualities are part of our being without which we would not be who we are, nor experience the world the way we do.Being happy means the sad side doesn’t get to express itself which is fine most of the time and how would you like to be shut away forever, even in a guided cage with hot and cold running everything you wanted?If sometimes we can let that sad side out to play in a safe environment, we can reclaim a part of ourselves that wasn’t being acknowledged… and sad music makes a fine invitation.
I always hear music in my head. What's wrong with me?
Well, it sounds like cancer of your Musicaladalamus (the organ in your brain that enjoys and interprets music). You should get it checked immediately!Ok…still reading, and not in your car on the way to your doctor? Good. That was a joke. There’s nothing wrong with you. This happens to everyone. Germans call it an Ohrwurm (Earworm). Americans just say we’ve got a song stuck in our head. Just sing along.One explanation for the ‘Earworm’ phenomenon, suggests that we get songs stuck in our heads for which we don’t know all of the lyrics. It’s the lack of closure, that keeps the song stuck in our heads. So, like, you know the first verse, and 3 lines of the chorus, but you can’t remember any more of the chorus or the 2nd verse. So your brain thinks, ‘Ok, well, maybe if I start over at the point where I know the words and the tune, I’ll remember the rest.’ Because, subconsciously, your brain wants to hear the song through til the end. So it keeps playing, over and over. This can go on for days. The next time it happens, try reading the lyrics and letting the song play to the end in your head…or listen to the actual song, but to the very end. This helps some people get a song out of their head.
