RE: The Psychology Of Music: Why I Feel The Way I Do

people have gone from sad to happy, happy to sad, laughing to crying, just by listening to a song play

It no surprise when popular artist Mohbad said "Music don't need permission to enter your spirit" Like you said, there is no way you will sit down to listen to music without feeling anything unless you are distracted or what you are listening to is not music. Even when watching a movie and music comes on, the mood changes and some people cry not because of what is displayed alone but the sound or song attached to that scene. This is the power of music on our psychological mind. As you said, its more like magic.
