GUEST,hotspur Why Do We Like Depressing Music? (80* d) RE: Why Do We Like Depressing Music? 17 Jan 04

I think maybe it has something to do with the multiple intelligences. Some people--i consider myself fortunate to be one of them--have a musical intelligence. It's like living your life to a soundtrack--in the movies, they always play somehting depressing when the main character is depressed, right? Well, I think that's why people sing sad songs. It fits the moment. Also, of course, it's better to sing about throwing yourself off a cliff then to actually do it.
