- chompysweat, on 11/17/2008, -0/+3"It’s what I’ve been saying all along: listening to good music gives you life, listening to bad music will kill you."
So listening to N-sync and Backstreet Boys really does kill you. I've always suspected it - Mujokan, on 11/17/2008, -0/+3I just downloaded a bunch of uplifting trance. Now I don't need to go to the gym!
- playuhh, on 11/17/2008, -0/+3Major Scales FTW? Or just enjoyable stuff? Although it is a profound study... the result seems redundant to any music lover... I wanna read about a more detailed relationship perhaps between certain melodies or scales or chord progressions.

- ninjaskimo, on 11/17/2008, -0/+2where is it, i didnt catch it
- IAmTheGuy, on 11/17/2008, -0/+2If it makes you joyful, then it works for you.
- IAmTheGuy, on 11/17/2008, -0/+2Don't read too much into this people. All this study supports is the well known fact that lower levels of stress are good for the body. Doing anything that relieves stress and makes you happy will dilate blood vessels, while anything stress inducing will constrict vessels. This study just took this knowledge into music.
- Mujokan, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1Don't worry, I had to read it five times before I found the mistake.
- ssj2119, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1I'm sure you meant 'eatly 'art - Jamaican style
- GhettoReborn, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1This was on CNN a few days ago, and in slightly better detail. The study found that joyful and relaxing music caused blood vessels to dilate, and music that made people anxious caused their blood vessels to constrict. The music the study says made the people anxious was "heavy metal and rap", but I assume with only 10 people in the study they weren't people that were into that kinda music. In my opinion the study is pointless though, it states the obvious.

- KMye, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1The rolls and happy hardcore never left me feeling very healthy the next day...but maybe it's the key to immortality?
- stolenisotope1, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1You are therefore gonna die when you listen to this: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=800HsgS03o0 (not rickroll)
MY HEART IS DIEING FROM WITHIN M/ - polexia, on 11/21/2008, -0/+1Well lately I have been listening to alot of Alice In Chains. I mostly listen to grunge music and some sad indie music like Elliott Smith so i guess i am going to have a heart attack from listening to sad music better write up a will
- DamnMan, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1There are probably none. This study actually doesn't do what other studies do (I'm looking at you, Beethoven for babies crowd) and clearly states its not any given style just what style you enjoy the most. In my case, grinding gloomy metal. A nice cup of coffee, some burning sandalwood and Type O Negative or Danzig etc sounds like a great way to unwind to me. Making me listen to some of "the greats" Ala the Beatles or Elvis or what have you would be like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.
If specific melodies or scales had any real impact one would think other forms of aural stimulation would be more apparent. Take Binaural beats for example, their effectiveness is debatable at best. - petebot, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1So THAT must be the reason Steve Winwood topped the charts in 1986 with “Higher Love.”

Let's hope they figure this out and we'll all be a lot happier. The author is correct, the majority of people don't mind paying a reasonable price for music and movies. Music CDs are hardly worth $10+ these days. If music was $0.25 per song and DRM free I would be buying music all day long, and more likely to purchase music I wouldn't normally purchase. At $1.00 per song I will purchase a handful per month. It would be the same for movies. - inactive, on 11/17/2008, -0/+1happy hardcore ftw!
- ToYKillAS, on 11/17/2008, -0/+0Gabber's worst!

- Jawua, on 11/17/2008, -0/+0Yes I love that, some times joyful music realy help in promoting healty heart, exspecially our grandmothers & grandfathers at home. Even, it help in promoting mentals heart.
