Music… Have you ever thought of the role music plays in your life and what is it about music that melts hearts and brings people together in celebration?
You can ask anyone what their favorite songs are and regardless of age, gender, cultural background or social status you’ll always get an answer. Indeed, music plays a large part in both courtship and activities that promote social unity across multiple cultures and geographies.
Even the scientists have given attention to such a topic as “The Role of Music in Romance”. The conclusion is the following: skills like musical ability are an attraction mechanism.
But what about musical taste and compatibility? He prefers Billie Joe Armstrong to Billie Holiday whereas she’d rather laugh with Jack Black than rock with Jack White! Can these two people stay tuned to the same station, or will their different musical interests introduce too much tension?
Psychologists say: ”Sharing a similar approach to processing new information will likely prove much more important to long-term satisfaction than whether the specific foci of interests are similar”. In other words if your Beatles-loving girlfriend doesn’t like the new Coldplay album then as long as you share the same general interest in music and the desire to learn, in this case both your relationship and music collection will be enriched.
No one will deny that music is just another language and is used to communicate interest during courtship, equal to verbal and nonverbal communication. It is a powerful tool to put words and sounds to our own emotions and allows us to understand how each other is thinking or feeling.
