Why does music make us emotional?
In: Other
On a very basic level, we know that music stimulates many parts of the brain, including the vision center. It triggers amygdala and hippocampus (emotions and memory), the motor cortex (for that need to just boogey), the frontal lobe (personality and rational thought.), and others.
At the end of the day, music can induce lots of feelings, thoughts, and memories.
I think the greater question is how can music affect us so greatly? That’s a much harder question.
