Why do you listen to music? For the relaxing? For the shared emotion? For the beat? Also, if any, what got you started on listening to particular genres?

Why do I listen? Hm...well, I'd say starting or unwinding the day. If I'm down or I'm hyper. Sometimes when I'm excited. Well, let's say emotions play a role. Sometimes, I just play music so, there's something in the background or to pass time.
Originally, I started listening to video game music since I loved video games, and very rarely, a rock song here and there I'd listen to. Actually, I was never really into music until April of 2004. That's when Spytek gave Gold a few CDs of Bad Religion[Punk Rock] and a little after that, Nirvana. From there on, It was really only Bad Religion, Pearl Jam, Nirvana and still lots of VGM. Afterwards, I started to listen to other genres around late 2005, and I guess that's how I branched out.

Why? Why not..? Heh,
Music is something that keeps things going in my life. If something goes wrong, I can pop my Ipod and zone out. It just makes some days go faster. It's soothing and relaxing and allows me to keep to my "world" or "zone" for a while. It gives me a bubble that only I'm in and gives me thinking space (usually applies with the my Ipod).
Music is relaxing.

At the age of four, I was drawn into the whole music scene, band t shirts and shit. Hoyes, a rebel four year old. My parents wanted me to listen to pop and crap, but for some reason, I kept getting drawn to the whole rock and metal scene. *shrug* I have listened to it since, and now I listen to a variety, as long as the lyrics are meaningful, or as long as I can head bang to it. *shrug* Bad for my health? Don't get my started on health, I've been told I'm not likely to live past thirty, due to apparently commit suicide. *shrug* Oh weelll.... Eh, R&B is shit so is Rap, Techno, all of that, it's all a load of bullshit that people listen to, just to often blast out in their cars to make them feel like a 'hardnut' or whatever round here. -.- Swearing, guns music all around that, that's all it's about. Racism is also a hot topic in rap and R&B.

Well, personaly, i listen to almost everything, with my favorites being country and VGM. I listen to music mostly cause of the emotions that it can cause. it can calm you, get you excited, get you pumped, make you happy, sad...almost anything. Sometimes i try to listen to music that matches my current emotion as well. Mostly, i just listen to music in order to get stuff done. i work and think better when listening to something.
