Sometimes a person doesn't really like the quietness surrounding him/her. Do you listen to music constantly throughout the day or have to have some melody playing in the background at all times. Do you listen to music at a specific time allocated only for that purpose or do you let the music blare in the background while you continue your daily chores. Music can be addicting but does it allow you to be yourself, does it distract you or alternatively does it brighten your mood. Lets hear all the music lovers answer this.

I love music and I have it playing always. I don't watch tv at all so music is my thing. My tv hasn't been turned on in so long, I know it's been atleast a month, if not two. I love all different kinds of music! I'm on a Buck Cherry and Theory of a Deadman kick right now. I LOVE their voices. I think some all music can put you in a certain mood. When I'm sad or heart broken, I usually listen to country. If I'm mad, I listen to rock. If I'm in a great mood, pop it is. I love music and would go insane without it. [Stephanie5]
YES! I love music so much, it's my passion and I could listen to it forever, every second of my life. =) It always brightens my day and never disappoints me unless its a song i dont like. [LairOfMetal]
are you a heavy metal fan, i am only aksing because of your name on here happy [mama_bear]
I am not addicted to music and to everything. I make a balance in all the things I do.because if you become addicted it become abusive and it may have effect in you life and could consume most of your times. In my own experience whether the music is being play on and off in the house. I could still heard music anytime and anywhere I go. in my home alone my sister and neice have their own favorites music and they play always it on the radio, even in cellphone and ipod. Then,y older father do not like louder music as it really annoying to Him as he hear the music as a noise not really entertaining. Older people prefer to listen to classical music as it is more soothing, emotional, have a lot of meaning and it is famous during their times. I myself like to listen to music when the house is too quiet. i like to play the music of todays generation. But, when I am reading, I do not like instrumental or loud music it destroy my concentration to study. I prefer to play slow sweet music on the background. I think music likeness depends on the preferences of the person choice and what he feels as enjoyable and could relieve his tension. Thus, setting the moods for romance, joy, peace and quiet of the day.. [neelianoscet]
i can really say that i am music lover,although i don't have a great voice,haha i love music because it relaxes me whenever i feel exhausted or badtrip.. sometimes..i want to have music playing when i am studying,others might say that it can be distracting but for me,it can help me understand more..hehehe [jhoanne1215]
Hell yeah! I'd listen to good music anytime. I even play because of my love for music. [biz_qwaszx]
I love to listen to music. I usually have music playing most of the time. Sometimes I just have the radio turned on, sometimes I Play cd's and sometimes I listen to my Ipod. Music makes me feel lively and In a better mood, it makes an empty house feel more welcoming and older music is good for bringing back memories. [OldhamLXVII]
Hi Sonz! I listen to music as and when I can enjoy it. I just cannot listen to it the entire day. One gets tired of listening constant music, irrespective of the fact, how melodious it is. I listen it when I am doing some other work, so that I could enjoy my other 'work' also. [dpk262006]
Hello sonz_doreen, I'm not really addicted to music but I do enjoy it. Sometimes I listen to 12th century latin music. It is relaxing. Cheers! Thok [thokius]
I can't say that I am addicted to music, but I do listen to it alot. I have a variety of music that I like and it depends on my mood what I listen to. My favorite of all is the 50's/60's music, because it transfers me back to my youth. [gr8nana3]
Yes I am addicted to music...sometimes a day comes when you have not any bussynes or any perticular job...then i am felling a bored..then music make my mood to turn on.and throughout the day I am continuing with music...and became addicted... [jyotirmoyy]
I think music is such a thing that can make a rock come into life.Music is something everyone loves and cannot live without, we all have some or the other favourite music or genres of us which we enjoy and music have no particular boundary, we all are addicted to it either in someways.May it be a dead metal, blues, soft, religious.Anything music is just the purest form of letting your soul clear and mind relax. [Archie0]

Hello, I do love music so much and always have. It is my peace sometimes and a good song can really turn my mood around! Sometimes music speaks to me and keeps me going , and sometimes I like it loud to just jam haha ;) You know I have been walking the track and having music on makes it so much more fun . I kinda go for lyrics tho happyI do like all types as well ... all! [metschica25]
I love music a lot. It is always playing around me. I have a mp3, ipod, psp, and palm. I only use them for music. Fully charge them up before going out then play them non stop throughout the journey. In class these are not allowed so i would knock a riddim of my favorite tune on the desk (usually get teachers annoyed but student in the vybez to dance or rock along). Music is life, without music may be i would commit suicide. I cant stand when the place is quiet. Some people say sound let their ears hurt but silence is what let my ears hurt. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!MUSIC IS EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!! [Renhard]
I play music alot when I'm working quitely when I'm not working I play it louder and sing along. I sing all the time with the music. the music just cheers me up so much I'm been into music all my life. It is wonderful! [sunshinegirl1]
addicted. I have to listen to my music! [JoelleRenee]
I just addicted to music, especially love song, and i just carried away from the song, and other genre of music i just want to play music all day, if my day are not much busy, even no television,but the music i can't live without it. [Preciousgem]
Yes, I do like listening to music on the radio or on my computer. I like to have it playing in the background while I am doing chores. It kinda makes the time and chores pass along more easily. I find music soothing and a joy to listen to. [nijolechu]
I greatly enjoy listening to music. I am a stay-at-home mom so I am able to listen to music regardless of what I am doing. I either turn on the stereo, tv, wear my MP3, anything to give me music. I tend to listen while cleaning house which while doing that I end up dancing which is fine because I can dance like a fool and noone will ever see me. [dbabcook]
In a quiet afternoon,I like to listen to liget music~ Feel particuarly good [KMK2009]
I love Music, I don't play it that often, but when I do, I play it for hours non-stop. I love any type of music that sounds good, I know that's not very descriptive, but there is certain music I just like because I do. I don't tie myself to one category or Music because there are so many songs of different categories that sound so good to me. I guess i'm addicted to Music, but I don't need it every second of every day :) [Sparkz95]
I like music especial the national music. I also like sing, But I don't sing well . [iconvalves]
Being a musician, I love music and I have it on most of the time. But there are times, like when I meditate when all I am listening to is the silence. That can be equally addictive. happy - Derek [derek_a]
Dear friend, I am not addicted to music but I do like to listen to it when I do have the mood of listening to it and also I do like to enjoy it may even to dance to it. Rarely sings for my own convince. Sometimes I do love quietness too. It all depends upon my change of moods.happy [SHAMRACK]
Everyone is different and that's what makes the world so colorful. I love music too as it takes me to another place every time it is right. I can't seem to concentrate on anything else whenever 'cause am lost in its surrealism, and often just want to sing along. I do have my times when while doing chores it is best enjoyed listening music. But, in the mornings when I get out of bed, I only want the tranquility of the silence for least half hour to an hour; no noise, no music, no TV, no talking... just listening to the silence is what set my day. As is with everything else, everything has its time and place and music will always have its place; but not always. [Lezzdenada]
I used to be addicted to music. It would help me to stop worrying about the day to day things. I loved to sing and play my guitar. I still do. But, not like I did when I was young. I used to have music on all the time, the louder the better. It was more an escape of the reality, seeing as I was not happy. But, it really does and did help. Lately, I don't use music as much as then. But it will always be a part of me. [Margajoe]
I am addicted to music, I cannot just sit in a quiet room. when I first got to work this morning, my boss called right when I got in. That was fine. Had our discussion, and then when I got off the phone I thought "Something isn't right". I hadnt turned on the radio yet. I am totally addicted. Love music. All kinds. I just like to have it on. [nrn2003]
I, for one am not. Today's youth I believe love music and they have music all the time in their head through MP3 players with wires hooked all over and tiny earphones snugged in their ears. If that is meant by the word 'addiction, then modern youths are addicts. Yes, I would love some background music being played ever so softly when I do some light reading or even now ,when I am blogging snippets on MyLot.' However, when I am I my car, I will let the car radio blast at a higher pitch just to get the beat and heat of the music! [jonjee0203]
I hate most of the world around me. Every one just seems to hate every thing. "Where did the peace go man?" Unfortunately I've been around it for so long that it kind of made me hate people who hate every thing. But when I listen, every thing just seems to go away. I can explore emotion, art, design. Every thing seems to work better when there is a melody behind it. I love music and I'd say that I have become addicted to it. I don't feel good if I go to long with out it. LOL... [bbpstudios]
I listen to music all day while I am working or driving! I hate long periods of silence unless I am reading a good book! I have always loved listening to music, it never distracts me and always makes me feel better when I am listening to music that I like! :-) [RawBill1]
its a good addiction I listen to mozarts music for several hours before I go to bed,as it ssoothe me, relaxes me and prepares me for bed and good sleep. I sometimes listen during the day as my time 'is all my own now where I am at. there is nothing wrong with this in my opinion.if its an addiction it is a very good very encouraging addiction in my eyes and I will not worry about it at all. [Hatley]
I listen to music a lot through out the day. I like to listen to something jamming out in the backgroung while I do my thing. And if I don't got no music going then I'll be humming, singing, or whistling randome tunes that pop in my head. I do believe that music is an form of expression, either that of the person playing it, or the person listening to it. yes, at times music can be quite distracting, and maybe music can also lighten the moment and set the mood. I believe music is the soundtrack to life. [oldmanhorrorfan]
yes, i cannot get through the day without it. it is what motivates me from my bed and just around the place. i am so dedicated to my music that i refer to my ipod as my electronic IV. without music i am lost, my friend said it well 'the only thing missing from life is background music. i remember when i killed my ipod by accident and i was without zeepod for a few days that pretty much sucked, i was so depressed. recently i also thought that i had lost dear zeepod *yes it has a name* i was lost and very depressed. i have all kinds of soundtracks for missioning. the soundtrack depends on the mission i am on whether it is cleaning the house, cooking or getting around the city, and i have to more live gigs than i can count. I LOOOOOOOOOOVE MUSIC. heavy metal and metal being my drug of choice, sweet panacae for the soul [mama_bear]
Addicted, nah!! Do I love music to my core, yes!! I haven't been bumping any music as of late, but when I'm in the car with the sound system humping out the trunk, it's the best feeling!!happy I used to play music all of the time while in the house, now just when I'm working out or in the mood for some noise!! cool Taripre$ [taripres]
All. Day. Long. lol. I am a music freak...I always have something on. Im a college student so my Itunes list has my driving, study, workout, and about 30 other playlists. I even have my ipod in when walking from class to class most of the time. Only when Im walking with someone or if the class is down the hall I think its rude or pointless depending on the situation. It drives some of my family and friends crazy, but thats just me. The only TV shows I really watch are Samantha Brown on the Travel Channel, American Idol (Gotta keep up with the future artists! lol) and CSI (Vegas and Miami). And the only one I am concerned with missing is AI. lol...yeah, Im horrible about it. [HansonFan]
i am listening to it quite regularly and you can say i am addicted to music...........i listen to music when i am driving,feeling lonely,doing some work, and when i am doing mylotting too and most of us are doing the same for sure [shakil8]
The term "addiction" is used in many contexts to describe an obsession, compulsion, or excessive psychological dependence. Yes! I guess I am addicted. I need my music fix daily! Without it, I may just go crazy! I sometimes wake up with songs in my head. They rarely relate to the dream I was having, but the song haunts me until I hear it. I don't know the last time I went without hearing at least one song throughout the day. Most of the time, I listen to music for at least a couple hours a day. At least this addiction isn't unhealthy... right?! Hmmm, I guess that depends on what it feels like going through withdraw! [goodnightmoon]
Hey, No I am not addicted to music, I don't think I will ever be. Personally I don't think that music is really my thing, mainly because I like to do other things, like play on the computer some games, or post on MyLot. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!! [EliteUser]
