RE: Why Do We Listen To Sad Music When We Are Sad?
I can add at your point of view. When you feel angry you tend to listen to aggressive music like rock, dubstep, rap. You don't listen to sad music to calm yourself, you listen to aggressive music because you need a anger release. And feel better after. Than perhaps when you feel sad you listen to sad music to release your "sadness".
Agreed. We always try to find an outlet for our emotions, no matter the kind of emotion we are feeling. We try to find something that will synchronize with our thoughts and make us feel involved and engaged in a space that encourages us to open up and reveal our true selves.
Music is just one of those outlets. There are many other outlets out there, but music seems to work the best for most people.
