Don't you drink beer all the time, anyway? :p:

This topic is flawed because of stereotypes. Say you listen to emo, your immediatly going to be labelled as a wimpy, suicidal adolescent due to societies preconceptions - so its a case of self-fulfilling prophecy. If your treated and seen as this depressive, your going to react to their behaviour to fit their expections.

i personally think music is a catharsis . its a way in which we can safely release emotion. Of course the type of music and its lyrical content can alter a mood, but affect mental health in a more extensive manner? No, thats society.

i think that music does affect you mentally especially if u listen to one song with the same message over and over agian some of it rubs off

music has the a powerful effect on the emotions of ppl

I agree with you guys. But I want to go back to the original question, but with the influence of listening to Pink Floyd. I found "Us And Them" on Napsterlinks. I think this song has a great emotional impact, especially on me, when I listen to this song. You can find out by clicking on the link above, and entering your email address to hear the full length song. Let me know what you guys think.

Jeez,I've never heard of them. Are they good???

Thanks for your opinion.

The self-fulfilling prophecy can only be held responsible for some attributes of individuals behaviour, and of course society plays apart. But wouldn't music be part within society? People are making the music, so it's not all due to the labelling theory.

However, I asked for opinions and I have them. I am retaking me exam this afternoon and had to find the link again. Didn't expect there to be more entries, but thats all cool.

Thanks guys.
