Some people listen to music because the song is catchy or pop. But some people listen to music and relate to the songs, almost like a biography. Some people even do actions on lyrics like that shooting blamed on One Step Closer. I take lyrics seriously too. Like Breaking the Habit or Crawling for example I listen to when I'm in a certain mood. Is this normal?
Well, with the kind of music I listen to, I don't take the lyrics seriously. But listening to certain songs for certain moods is normal. Example-when I feel depressed, I listen to Metallica-Fuel, to get me cheered up. I have no clue how, it just does.
i find myself putting a certain cd and only playing one or two tracks depending what mood iam in.... so yeh i guess it 'normal' (define normal)
My music and moods usually relate. That's why it's hard for me to listen to certain songs that i feel i can't relate to.
Music is basically a way to get stress out. And it's not necessarily relating to lyrics. My band teacher mentioned that music is just a stress reliever. Without music, I would think the population would be less than half of what it is today.
I relate music to everything that I do, say and feel. Music is my escape path and I listen to it on full blast when I'm driving. Sometimes, I just feel such a connection to the lyrics that I can't push the stop button on my stereo.
Lets face it,LP have the power to make a depressed person feel good listening to one of their songs,thier lyrics are what makes people relate to their music.
when i'm angry i'm listening to Faint and In the end i don't know why in the end but i all i know is i don't sing in the part "i've put my trust..." i YELL. well when i;m sad i'm listening to In the end but i dont sing nor yell i dont do anything and when i think the world is against me i listen to Nobody listening.so i say evry song shows how i feel and my moods sometimes my friend come to my house they JUST hear Faint and they get out knowing whats happening well thats how it goes with me.
I take lyrics very seriously and listen to songs with lyrics that will help me get through whatever it is I'm going through. I find it very helpful because the songs express what I'm feeling, when I might not know how to put those feelings into words.
Some songs I really just can't help but laugh @ the lyrics but with songs lyk place 4 my hed I can really relate 2 them.( And hit the floor). Depends on who u r when it comes 2 relating to the lyrics. But mostly they just lyrics and I not bothered.
i think it's normal to express your feelings in what way what so ever i like listening to music when i'm kind of down and it brings me in another mood. metal is a very good way to make my frustrations go away. i think pop music is 2 based on making a catchy song and making money don't like that idea at all
I really listen to the lyrics and thats all in songs, if its got a catchy rift but crap lyrics it jus isnt good enough for me personally, thats probably why linkin park are my fave band. Also i dont know if im the only one who does this, but if im feelin sad i normally listen to a sad song and it makes me feel better, if im angry.. a angry song etc
to be honest...I don't look at lyrics a lot. I judge music mostly on the sound. If I like how it sounds, then I like it.
