Completely puzzled me.
One of my teachers in high school couldn't listen to music because he has epilepsy. Epileptics have what they call an "aura" which is just a feeling or sign that a seizure is coming. It's different for everyone (some people see colors, some smell things, and some actually have intense euphoria). My teacher's auras were that he wold hear music playing in his head so if he ever listened to music his head wouldn't know whether it was real or an aura so he would work himself into a seizure anyway. He could NEVER listen to music. I don't know how I could live if that were me.
