How does music affect YOUR mind and body?

It's no secret, music affects us all differently. Even the same piece of music affects different people in vastly different ways. Let's take,for example, Michael Jackson. Like many pop musician, whether you like him or don't is oftentimes a matter of what generation you're a part of? Are you now a senior citizen? Chances are you're NOT a fan. Are you in your 30's or 40's? I'll be you probably do like a lot of his music.



How we react to this piece of music probably will even be different in the future because it is currently being re-recorded by newer world-famous musicians as a fund-raiser for the children of Haiti! For me, hearing this piece again brings to my mind all the images of abandoned children wandering the streets of Haiti and makes me want to help them.

Music can affect people by calming them, energizing them, reminding them of their spiritual connection or inciting them to fight and riot in the streets! How will music affect YOU today?
