Music unquestionably affects our emotions. We tend to listen to music that reflects our mood. When we’re happy we may listen to upbeat music; when we’re sad we may listen to slower, moving songs; when we’re angry we may listen to darker music with heavy guitar, drums, and vocals that reflect our level of anger. Were you ever asked to name your favorite band or performer? Were you able to rattle off the top five you listened to regularly? We may not know why we prefer the artists we listen to, except to say that we resonate with or feel the music, or just that they write songs we like. But we can learn a lot about our emotional selves through our musical tastes.
