Eldergirl Why Do We Like Depressing Music? (80* d) RE: Why Do We Like Depressing Music? 09 Jan 14


Fair to say that different folks will find different songs depressing? We are not all identical, after all.
Many yrs ago in college I was practising Gene Clark's song 'Spanish Guitar'. One of my flatmates came in and begged me to stop, why was I playing such a dismal song, she'd never have thought I was a young woman in love, etc etc.(at the time, I was.) For me, it's one of the most positive songs I know, being basically about creativity, but my friend only heard minor chords not v well played..
Well maybe that's the answer, and why I packed in playing guitar!
Still, it's different strokes for different folks, innit?
