IMHO - Music does affect our sensitivity to humanity and self worth. The example I choose is a real life story. My nephew and his best friend were playing a nyntendo game. My nephew quit to read the list of games they could be playing while his best friend continue playing against the game. His friend was beating the player up. Because he had been brutal about it, my nephew took it personally and side kicked his best friend. While this may seem funny you can see it does have an affect on people, just as music does. There is a saying here "Music soothes the savage beast." If some types of music soothes the savage beast I do believe it can unrest some too. I do not lay the blame on the music though. I think it takes a certain person to appreciate Manson's kind of art, and I use that word losely. By the time they get into this "art", I think they are already having serious problems. How does music affect your life?
