How does Music affect your Mood?

Music affect your Mood
Proven by scientist that music helps people relax, release stress, inspire, and motivate us. Music can change your mood positively or negatively, depending on the type of music you listen to. For example, music with negative messages, such as some Rap and Heavy Metal cause people to become more angry. Music with positive messages, such as some alternative rock and pop causes people to become happier. Music can alter your brain waves, which elevates your mood even after you stopped listening to it. Can music improve someones intelligence? There have been studies that show it is possible that music such as Classical can improve your intelligence, although it's not 100% percent proven. There are other studies that say Metal can have the same or opposite affect as Classical. Therefor, listen to music that makes you in a good mood!

What Music puts you in a good mood? Do you agree with this article? COMMENT BELOW!

music is amazing. i dont think music really changes yur mood to good or bad. we listen to what is going to make us feel less stressed and happy. some people need that kind of music to make them feel better. whether its rock, classical or something negative it makes them feel better. everyone is different. you cant make one jugdement based on a few people.

thank you for the information. Using this for a project and really needed it.

All music is great for your brain from zeds dead to
Otis redding to cannibal corpse to sublime to cassidy to nick drake to the God of happy Bob marley. They should do a study if you can withdraw from music it's like a drug taken though you ears. Has more effect on my mood then my meds

i dont think its right for you to just assume all metal is negative! a lot of it is actually quite inspiring.
try listening to "we came as romans" and tell thats a negative song! they sing about love and brotherhood! people like you give all of us who listen to metal the stereotype of being godless heathens who hate the world! fuck you

Not just lyrics make the mood of a song, instrumental does too!

To the person who wrote: i dont think its right for you to just assume all metal is negative! Read the article it said "some".

I agree to this, classical music motivates me.

Anonymous said...

i do not believe certain music makes u angry or happy. for example, i feel the opposite rap makes me happier nd more calm. pop annoys the shit out of me! but everything else is great

I am doing a science fair project based on if Heavy Metal music effects people's moods negatively. I am using this info just like many of you. All I can say is that I totally disagree with the statement that Heavy Metal changes your mood for the worst. I love Metal and I am happy, well adjusted and probably the nicest person you will ever come across. Music doesn't effect us unless we let it.

This was really good. Have you done something like this but on behavior or thoughts before?

The Mental Mind said...

Don't forget to +1 and like (facebook, google) this article. And to Josiah, no unfortunately not. Although, music can put thoughts in an individuals mind affecting their behavior.

i agree for the most part but i dont think that all rap and heavy metal music makes you agry.Not all songs are the some, some could actually have a good meaning behind it so with that being said it those genres could be just as positive as any other

Hi! I am using this website as this source and thank you Adam Borke for writing this. I completely agree with this. During swim season I always used rock and fast beat pop songs to get me ready for a meet. We even used music to get us in the right mind set for practice! I LOVE MUSIC!
