Task 3: Music and your mood

Music can influence our emotions, thoughts and behavior to a great degree. It can make us sad or happy, relaxed or full of energy.

Slow music calms people. Ballads and some forms of classical music often create a peaceful atmosphere that is good for relaxing after a busy day. If the music is slowed below 50 beats per minute, it can create an atmosphere of sadness. This kind of slow music can be found in many types of music, such as jazz and blues. Many people listen to slow music. It suits their mood when they are alone at night.

Faster music, such as rock, heavy metal and dance music, tends to give us energy and makes us feel full of life. This type of music is often played at sporting events to stir up the fans and the teams.

Rock, pop music and rap are played at parties. They can provide energy to the gathering. Since most rock, pop, and rap songs are easy to listen to, they are suitable for parties. Rock music is sometimes used to accompany physical labor. Its heavy fast tempo speeds up the heart, and one almost works in time to the music, making the work more enjoyable.

Some people think that rock music can cause road accidents. Drivers could become excited by the speed of the music and drive too fast. But there are so many things to distract a driver?s attention that it does not make sense to blame rock music.
