He made me think that music is sometimes hypnotic \u00a0because when I listened to the music, it made me feel hypnotized\u2026 weird.<\/p>\n<p>I think that different kinds of music make me feel different things. For example, if you listen to loud, fast music, it might make you feel more energetic But if you listen to slow, relaxing music, it might make you calmer. I think this because at different points of a song that was played, it was fast, which made me feel tenser, but when the music slowed down, it made me calmer.<\/p>\n<p>Music is amazing! It is so cool how music can effect (most of) us even though it isn\u2019t a living thing. Just like computers and phones can effect our living and how we think, even though it doesn\u2019t have a brain and emotions.
