Hello, myLotters.
I was wondering how many of you listen to music loud. Do you listen to music out loud, bothering all the neighbors and waking up your entire city? Or do you listen to it quietly, just like I am doing right now? And do you use a headphone? With headphones you can turn it into the maximum and nobody would hear.
And what time are you usually listening to music? Will it depend on your mood or something like that?
Respectfully,
Munhozmib.

I don't like listening to my music very loudly, because I live in an apartment and it bothers other people. I usually listen to my music at an average volume, or a very low one if I'm in the mood for it. =P I use headphones when I listen to my music most of the time because I'm used to them. When I go in my bus, I always listen to my iPod, and then, sometimes, I have the tendency to raise my volume higher if a lot of people are talking or being distracting. When, how, and what music I listen to depends a lot on my mood. Sometimes, I'm just not in the mood at all for very loud music, and I'll listen to soft, quiet songs. I'm usually not in the mood for listening to music after school or when I'm on the computer because I listen to it when I'm in the bus. xD [Zezloler]
Not really. =P There's plenty of other people there too, and I don't need to be completely alert. I look out the window a lot, so I know when something happens outside that needs my attetion. =D [Zezloler]
Any time i'm on the computer. I only listen to my music loud whenever it's the afternoon since I won't really be disturbing anyone since everyone's awake. [LifeGuru]
I usually listen to music the most on my creative zen when I ma on the train up and down to university. The trip is about an hour and a half or three hours there and back. So it stops me from getting board and gives me something to do if its too dark to watch the passing scenery. The university I attend is up pretty far north so in the winter its very dark and in the summer its very light. I do use headphones on level 18 sound. I suppose the type of music I listen to depends on my mood Maybe listen to U2 or moby when its night and there aren't many people on the train and radiohead, smashing pumpkins and meatloaf when the train is really noisy, I just like blocking out every one else in that scenario.I have over 2000 songs on my creative zen so there will always be something to suit the situation, even if others don't apreciate the music I like.

Hello, cahobreeder16. I have never heard about this device. I live in Brazil, but hey, I did never heard about it. I asked your age because of the kind of songs you like. Got curious to see how old were ya. Thanks. [munhozmib]
I usually listen to music constantly through out the day with maybe like thirty minuter intervals where I don't listen to it. I listen to music very loud so I can hear every part of each song and because I can't hear all that well because I've been around too many amps and P.A. systems. [jambi462]
Hi,munhozmib. I like listening to music very much.Actually,most of the time I listened to music quietly.But several times I prefer listened to it loudly. In general,I listen to music quietly before I sleeping and out loud when I'm very happy.But I never like music which is too loud.My heart and nervus can't accept it.I have a headphone,but I don't like use it.Because it makes my ears ache. [warmwind1986]
Before, after office hours when I get home from work... I play it loud that even our neighbors could hear it. [mjweed21]
I dont have a time where I listen to music it all depends really like I would if im at the gym working out driving somewhere or just listen to it when im playing video games and I dont need to hear what there saying. And I dont like to listen to the music loud when Im listing to my ipod but in the car I kind of do. [arcidy]
I usually like to listen to at the later part of the day. I don't like listening to music once I get up because I'm grumpy and it usually gives me a headache. If I am in the house, I'll keep the music to where it's pleasantly low but still loud enough to where I can hear all the words. If I am in the car, I will listen to it kind of loud but not to where every car can hear me coming down the street. I usually don't like listening to music on headphones because I can't really enjoy it without adjusting the volume with every song. [texasheartland]
Hello! Listening to the music in a later part of the day might be great, specially if you are trying to sleep. This doesn't work for everybody, though. And yeah, headphones are kind of bad about this... You need to be adjusting them with every song. But depending on the song, you can just leave them there. Thank you for your response! Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
I do most of my music listening when I'm in my car and going from place to place. But when I listen to it inside my apartment, I always make sure to keep the volume low. If I don't, someone might call the manager's office, and complain. And then I'd be in trouble with the apartment manager. [AmbiePam]
Yes, I wouldn't like to bother the neighbors either. It would bring too many troubles, and I think there is no need to trouble you because of listening to music. [munhozmib]
I usually tend to listen to my music at a bit below the average volume/ pretty quiet. I don't like people knowing what I'm listening to. I usually listen to music while I'm on the computer with my headset. I sometimes listen to music on my ipod on car trips and such. [Purtle]
I have always had a passion for music. Unfortunately I don't get to listen to it now as much as I used to with the job that I have. Mostly in the car anymore. I will put a cd in at home from time to time when I'm cleaning. I don't use headphones because I havent had a need to. It's a good idea for my daughter though when she is downloading to her ipod. Think I'll suggest that the next time she decides to do it at midnight:) [bendy113]
Hello, bendy113! It is a shame that you cannot listen to music as often. Music really has something with it. It can change the path of our lives. Pretty amazing, this art. Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
Everyone listens to music don't they. I listen to Indian music, indi-pop music, pop music, rock music and instrumental music. I usually listen to music aloud when I'm alone at home. The tastes that I have depend on my mood at times. Also I usually listen to music when I am on my bike, either going to college or any of my friend's house. [zeethegr8]
Hello! Some people don't listen to music at all. But I can tell you that most of the world does. It is just that some people are not used to it at all. :D Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
Well i just like to listen the 80's music, its the best and this is the real music :) well have a nice day and hope you will have a very good week see you soon and bye bye. [theembittered]
I listen to music before I go to sleep because it relaxes my mind. I also listen to mellow music, R & B, POP and love songs because I find them nicer that those loud music. I don't like hardcore rock because it could damage ones ear and I really don't like the lyrics of those songs. Since Christmas is coming I and my husband listen to sweet Christmas Songs and we turn the volume loud, enough for 2 neighbors to hear. [Yori88]
Hello, Yori88. Oh, the Christmas spirit! It is so great, isn't it? Listening to Christmas song and cheering yourself up. Really great. :D I am not listening to Christmas songs yet. Yet! Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
hello there, i listen to the music not so louder. i like to hear the music at the minimum volume(upto which my ears can hear it) Listening to the music doesnot have specific time for me, it deoends upon my mood. i do not use headphone because when i use headphone i could not hear anybody calling me.Music is something that makes me refreshed and i feel relifed when i listen to music. [xavier_sh]
It depends on my mood or the song. I listen to my music mostly at normal, which is enough to block out my surroundings but not damage my ears. I usually listen to my music when I'm on the computer through the computer speakers, while I'm in the car through my headphones, and at night when I'm going to sleep through my headphones. I find it is most effective at night to keep turning down the music and play soft songs, not heavy metal. That's what helps me fall asleep. I also listen to hard rock music loudly before a sports event to get me pumped up and play well. That is part of my routine of getting ready for my Soccer games. [ohhcrapitstim]
Hello, Ohhcrapitstim. I also like to listen to some songs that will pump me up before a soccer match. They are so great, it seems like I can play better if I listen to them. You can feel the desire to play burning inside. It is a really good feeling, it is like if you were ready to rock! Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
It depends. Before I go to bed I usually turn on the 80's retro hour station and listen to some good tunes and if it is a really good old song I turn it up. And on the way to work in the morning I usually listen to some hard tunes to wake me up and that is always a little louder. And when I listen to more the jazzy stuff or classics like the remake cd of Unforgettable with Natalie Cole and her father Nat King Cole...well it is average volume. I rarely listen to music while I am online. I always listen to it while I am cleaning.... And the music choice always sets my mood. If I am having a rough day I will put on a relaxation CD (sounds of nature of fire) and I put it on repeat all night long. I wake up rested and relaxed. I don't worry about neighbors because I virtually have none. Not within hearing distance anyhow. [taface412]
Hello munhozmib. I do not have a fixed time to listen to music. These days I seldom listen to music as each time I get back home, I usually surf on the Internet. I need to be quiet to read on line. But if I just do some household, I would like to listen to music as it makes me happy with the music on. It is not too loud, but enough to listen to in my own apartment. Enjoy yourself, friend. [williamjisir]
As soon as I wake up my radioalarm is already on, music will start my day. I will just turn it off upon leaving our house. During office hours, I also listen to my Ipod. The music I prefer usually depends on my mood for that day. Most of the time I listen to the soundtracks of the recent movie that I have seen. It gives me relaxation when I listen to diffrent kinds of music. At the end of the day, music is still the one that will put me to sleep. [tangorange]
i don't like listening to loud music...i just like to listen quietly as i don't want to disturb my neighbors here in our condo.. i usually use my earphones to listen to my favorite tracks in my iPod.. and i use it during night time, when hubby's away.. =) [gracie04]
I listen to musci whenever i wanted too whithout consider time and so on. Most of the time i will listen to rock and bass music in my own car when i ahve sound system on it. I will balst the woofer according to my mood. Sometimes i like hearing soft musix as i feel more clam.I don't use headphone as it make my ears pain. [snpyvin]
Some people complain about ear ache after using headphones. Does it hurts because of the kind of the headphone you are wearing? [munhozmib]
One of my favourite hobbie is listen to music,i like all hindi songs and i enjoy with it.Usually whenever i get bored i listen to the songs which keeps my mind fresh.I dont like loud i always listen with headphones,for parties and functions i like to listen loud so that we can enjoy a lot,otherwise i listen with headphones.I have intex headphone and its good one i am using it from the last 2years. [ghouse1]
Heya munhozmib. I used to listen to music the most when I was driving, but I haven't had to drive for a couple of years now so my music listening habits have decreased quite a bit. I will sometimes play music in the background while using the PC at home, but that's about it these days. I am not someone who plays music overly loud either. Headphones get used a bit also so I don't bother anyone. Sometimes though, I do feel like filling the apartment with some tunes, so will turn the PC speakers as loud as they can go (They're not very loud at all! lol) and go for it! happy [James72]
Hello, James. What is it that keeps you from driving? Some sort of problem? Hmm... Listening to music can cheer you up when needed, or get you happy, or make you sleep. Depends on the music. I believe you should start listening to it again, as it is pretty nice! :D Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
Hi friends I do listen to music .When i am mylotting,i listen to music .Listening to melodies and light music relieves me from stress and rejuvenates me.Before going to sleep,i listen to some nice music and i would love to listen to devotional songs all the time. Bye!!!!!!!!! [23uday]
I love listening to inspirational music at night while I lay down in bed. The soothing sound encourages sleep and more often than not I'd drowse with music still on and when I'd wake up I'd notice the sound already off because my hubby would turn the music off when he found me already asleep. [salonga]
Hello, salonga! Hehe, I also have fallen asleep with music playing. When I wake up it seems like I did not fall asleep, it is so great. I mean, you have a nice sleep when you do it listening to music. I heard that our hearing ability is the only thing that works while we are sleeping. We do not see, we do not smell, we do not taste, we do not touch. We only listen. Perhaps songs could have some influence over our dreams. Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
i listen to music all through the day normally, and in the day i listen to it rather loud, in the night i have it on but not so loud. lately i have been listening to christmas songs lol and i must say its a laugh singing along to them. [molloy]
Hello, molloy! I am glad to know that you are already in the Christmas spirit! It is pretty fun to sing along those Christmas songs, isn't is? I do enjoy it too, but I don't do it often. Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
No, it is just plain wrong to listen to your music so loud that the neighbors can hear it. (Also in most places it's against the law and you can be fined.) I like my music quiet. Too loud hurts my ears. I like listening to my music when there is nothing on tv and especially at night as I sleep. Then it's turned down so low no one else can hear it except me. [mlh8087]
Hello! It is ethically incorrect to listen to song like that. And yes, you can be fined, depending on where you live. In my country, there is a fine for people who do it, but only in a certain time of the day. I believe that listening to song loud is forbidden after 22:00 and before 08:00. Respectfully, Munhozmib. [munhozmib]
I like to listen to music to relax me, so I do not have it up too loud. I like to hear the bass but I do not like to hear the windows rattling too. If I am at home cleaning, I have my stereo up loud enough so I can hear it in all the rooms. If I am on my PC, it is not up too loud, so I can hear myself think. There are times when I feel like rockin' and that is when I turn it up. I tend to have it loud when I am driving and lower when I am at home. [jsitko]
lol My voice makes dogs cry too. But I don't mind, I still sing when I feel like it. :D [munhozmib]
I love playing my music loud! It always made me mad that other people drove by my house blasting their "music" early. but in my house, its normally at a volume where i can enjoy it and hear whats happening in the house. I only use headphones when in a vehicle or walking somewhere. And I normaly listen to music first thing in the morning because it wakes me up. [Keyabori]
I use headphones when I listen to music, but it shouldn't be too loud because it might damage my eardrums. The volume is set just enough for me to hear the music. there's really no particular time when I'm listening to music, if i want to listen, i just put my headphones on. [spike12_ph]
I always my lovely musics using headphone. Why? because I can listen to music out loud without bothering my neighbors. I always listen to musics every day. [wanris]
I enjoy music very much! And I usually listen music in normal volume in my room.Sometimes I listen music lounly but I would close my door avoiding to bother my neighores. But I seldom to do it loudly. Well, I seldom to use headphone to listen music when I stay at home. On the other hand, I usually turn on my MP3 and put on my headphone when I go somewere by bus or by my bike. [James_fan]
