A Oct 22, 2003 Penn State University study shows no matter what kind of music you listen to, it makes your mood better. “Music affects our moods, it is the great mood enhancer. We may not understand the words, but instead recognize the expression of its musical beauty and power to de-stress.”
They go on to say, “Music has been called ‘The International Language’ – a very simple thought with much meaning behind it. Even if you can’t speak the language of a country, you can move, sway, dance and most of all, enjoy the music of the country. We may not understand the words of a musical selection but we do understand the beauty.”
