    I recently started playing the piano and naturally I got curious how the music affects our brains. This video is the result of that curiosity. Hope you enjoy!

      There is one thing more about the music, if you listen to music you will find yourself more emotionaly unstable after 2 hours, but if you try not to listen to music for 2 weeks you will find yourself undepressed, if you listen firstly to happy music and change to sad, you will be more emotionaly unstable, try to listen music only when exercising, then you throw all that fireworks from brain out through used energy.

    Thank you, that was very interesting. I've been a guitar player since I was a kid in the 1960s. I took lessons for years because I enjoyed it and my parents approved.
    I used to teach guitar lessons at a music store when I was in high school. I'm close to 70 years old and still play every day. Couldn't stop if I wanted to. LOL

    I’d rather play my guitar or listen to music rather than watch a a movie. I’ve been playing guitar since 1974. I was a special education student in high school and throughout most of my education. I educated myself in music. I learned how to read it and then I applied it to the guitar today I am 70 years old and am a solo instrumental guitarist, I love music it has help my mind and my thinking capability and so many ways. Although I have a photogenic memory, I don’t usually forget things even at 70. I have no arthritis in my fingers and no pain so I am able to play like I always did when I was young life picked up the guitar at 22 years old. I went and trade it for anything I love music it’s a part of my life and it makes me happy to play. I practice a lot during the day he gives me something to do. It’s a beautiful and sexy hobby and it helps your brain in so many ways. Thanks for the video. Have a great day.👍🏼👍🏼😁🎸🎸

    Music is actually great. To tell ya guys im a student and ive experienced depression and sad things in life but when I listen to music, it makes me motivated and
    itll help me to find my true potential...
    music is just some sort of wave length . Then even things like light is also wave like (Emr)
    SO when you add emotions to THAT particular wavelengths you'll feel energetic and motivated...
    hence emotion is important.
    MOROVER music make me feel great about me. I'll know the better me as much as I understand the music....
    just my opinion.....

    I have commented on this before. But my mother was only 5 foot two and I was over 20 inches long. I was too large for my mother. They didn’t do C-sections in the early 50s. So I had some brain damage at birth. It caused me to be a slow learner. I even went to special education classes in my early school years. As I got older and I went to work I decided to buy a guitar and learn how to play. My brother played harmonica so I thought it would be cool to learn how to play a guitar in 1974 I picked up a guitar. Best thing I ever did for myself. Reading and playing music gives me a chance for my brain to really think things out. Reading music and playing guitar has helped me immensely in my life, I’m so grateful I learn how to play. Now I’m 71 years old and love to play guitar love reading music too. Playing an instrument helps you think a lot. It keeps me alert and sane. I will most definitely be playing music for the rest of my life. I may not have many more years left but the years I do have left I’m going to enjoy my life playing guitar, have a great day

    Yeah not to be confused with popular music or anything with lyrics, in fact ive noticed this has the opposite effect on the brain. Robs your focus and is dopamine addictive. Its stimulating in the negative way where as pure music played from an instrument has a positive uplifting effect. Good video

    • @BetterThanYesterday

      Indeed. Listening to music with lyrics while reading or studying will only distract you. You're basically multitasking (not productive) and losing focus by switching back and forth.

    @BrendonMartinStarr 4 года назад +1

    Idk guys, I used to be a funny, energetic, charismatic guy before I started listening to music. I would kind of listen to certain songs but I never got into it until 3 months ago. Now I’m very lonely, unfunny, and zero energy to do what I used to love doing before. Btw the music is mostly hip hop. I can’t even hold a conversation for 5 minutes anymore, before I would talk for ages about nothing and everything at the same time. It was random but people would actually listen and it would be funny. I’ve been thinking of cutting off all music from my life to see if my energetic, old self comes back. Imagine being your perfect self and not knowing it, and then for that to disappear without knowing it until it was too late. That’s what happened to me. I’ll update you guys a couple months later, see if I’m just stupid, or it’s the music.

  • @nowankersallowed2115
    @nowankersallowed2115 5 лет назад +5

    I agree with that. Although I thought it was the left hand side of the brain that was creative.. either way .. I agree with the fact that emotionally it can allow a person to feel and identify what they need to and work through the particular issue.. so long as not dwelling in that place too long if it's sadness or anger. Though it makes me question what the connection is with someone like Hannibal and classical.. unless it's a way to calm the nerves or keep him focused.. maybe it's even like a stabilising affect.. helping to do abnormal things with normality.. who knows. Just a thought. The other thing I am curious about though is if we have a subconcious preference for certain beats or rythyms.. maybe pitch or tone. I know for myself I do prefer to listen to male musicians as an average.. but that came back to the way i listened to music with my dad. I always prefered depth whether in the content or in the voice and music. So I do enjoy deeper voices or bass. Whether that's the kind of seeking what I perceive as masculine.. is quite possible. It wasn't ever really intentional but an observation of myself in reflection. My own dad had a deeper voice and was rugged so that is what I consider masculine as a father is said to be a daughters first love or exampleship of a male. I never really felt very comfortable around the refined gentleman.. it's so foreign.. but there are exceptions with the characters of such a Hannibal played by sir Anthony Hopkins.. although older men are more acceptable to me for some reason as more refined than a younger man. Why.. not sure. But rugged or rough around the edges doesn't mean a person is evil or a bad influence.. I just find more reality with such a person. Maybe because it's what I know.. I'm not sure. But it wouldn't be much different to the high society feeling more comfortable in their own classes.. people who speak their language and understand their societal norms or rules.

    I enjoyed the video, but the artist may wish to explore more ethnic diversity in their human representations.
