Cambridge Ideas - The Music In Me


Discussion and opinion

  • be nice if we could take a test to see which one we are - mac1417
  • @LastDanceSaloon If you read the article, they address the role of demographics in their study. Also, that music does shape your immediate personality state does not necessitate that music shapes your overall personality. So, their study isn't proven, but you haven't proven it backwards. - photoeditingchicken
  • 'indicate the etent to which you like that music' what a twat. try write 1 for most like and 10 for dislike...... jesus - Geoffrey Currie
  • I am watching this late at night due to insomnia based illness and have the sound really low. For a video about sound from sound experts, why does the presenter whisper every line and everyone else shout their lines. I had to watch the whole video playing with the volume button. Anyway, can I ask the purpose of the study? What use will the data provide? And to who's benefit? Continued in next post... - LastDanceSaloon
  • music should be played listened to or danced to talking about it is for those who don't understand that. - 3wives3kids
  • Because you're a psychologist you will EAT THEIR SOULZ. - hollium
  • Grindcore is like metal meets gabba. It's the sound of hell collapsing. Check Wikipedia. And buy Altered States of America by Agoraphobic Nosebleed. It will make you want to eat your own hair. - idlejim
  • excellent work! - 1888junkteam
  • not exactly millions of personalities... there's introvert and extrovert, and then theres the next step down and the next step and so on. Ok, so there's a lot of combinations, but by finding out that someone likes a particular genre of music you can work out some of these. You don't need to know everything about someone to know how they react to you and stuff. - L33tImagination
  • well obviously people who are in a certain subculture wont agree with their particular sterotype but will agree with others, but thats only because since there part of it they see a much larger part of that subculture than the people who construct the sterotypes do. - plopenstien
  • The ancient Greek modes were attributed with generating corresponding moods from rage to calm. - keepinguptheday
  • I don't think this gu iss on the verge of discovering something on par with the theory of gravity. Maybe the theory of happy music makes you happy, and sad music makes you sad.. but that's it. - Nogert
  • Rufus is on his way to a rave hahaha. The man's a legend. - Knight0n
  • The science of the "bleedin' obvious". - floppyd0g
  • I thought this was all common sense? - Alphonzen
  • That's a couple of months of your life wasted there, doctor. anybody could tell you that. - Eddplant
  • er...wot if i like different types of music. does it mean i have split personalities? lol. i think this is dumb. ok, many people do but some of us like hearing the sounds musical notes are put together. i find psychology is based on assumptions . you can get an idea of what a person is like but it can take more than a lifet ime to get to knw them completely..well, not even completely it depends on whether the person wans to open up to you or not - TheCharleycat
  • Of course music has to be with the personality. But there ar millions of possible combinations, as there are millions of personalities. Won´t be the same a person who like classic, hip hop, house and funky, that a person who like classic, hip hop, rock and pop. People don´t or shouldn´t like just one kind of music. The factors to see would be the combination of different music they like, how much they like, how they listen to each kind of music... - LutxyKortinhas
  • does the fact that it's obvious matter. I see it as being pretty obvious that an apple falls downwards, yet this had one of the biggest impacts on science - iwan smith
  • "I'm going to a rave" lol - xxxpistolpetexxx
  • does this guy realize that his opinions on the music being uplifting and blah blah etc is also based on his personal preferences? the results were kinda obvious this research should've been performed with the aid of musicians (more than 1) to help him for more accurate results, though the results would've been obvious to them before they even started - SousukePanic
  • thanks for the info but all this stuff was pretty obvious without a study. - Nogert
  • Actually music can control your emotions and mood. Its like simple brain washing. illuminati (pleas youtube search this) - wigahiga500
  • what's grindcore :o - DuKtape
  • It's a known fact that taste in music can change with the wind in pretty much any human being dependent on social circle, age, a change in the quality/attitude of the performers and a myriad of other factors. This whole study is so backward. It was proven long ago that music helps shape your immediate personality state, not visa-versa. This is why shops and restaurants never play death metal or gangsta rap. I'm going to have to stop until I find out the point of the study... - LastDanceSaloon
  • Haha mines doesn't fit in anywhere! I'm introvert and can be extrovert too! And like a variety of music too! - DanielleT192
  • what's there to understand you like it you don't like it you're indifferent to it. you don't need anyone to analyse why. who cares - 3wives3kids
  • scremo rules the world - abrak002
  • What a crap metal band. Still, I'd like to see what else they found out through that study. - distortingjack
  • Thats my friend with a beard on the thumb-nail. Mr Fox rocks! Hehe - lionwolf22
  • Seckser said: "This is why I can't stand people, there's always stereotypes to certain genre's or styles of music" Far be it from me to pick on you, but... honestly, are you serious? :) You "can't stand people" because some of them "label" or stereotype you... and you find it's THEM who have a problem? :) - Hadewijch
  • @xxxpistolpetexxx I know the guy who's going to a rave - he's really cool for an old guy. He paints crazy stuff and is a real hippy and free spirit. - joolsner
  • This is really interesting and makes ALOT of sense! I laughed at the end when he was on drums... Fair play! haha - Jordan Williams
  • 6:11 Woa, didn't see that one coming. - wilbur51488
  • talking about music is not what i said so i can't be accused of being dumb for something i didn't write unless of course the dictionary definition of to talk and to analyse are the same in which case i am dumb - 3wives3kids
  • Interesting... - xxxpistolpetexxx
  • Interesting video. Good idea for a research project. - MusicGuru12
  • i never came across a dafted idea about music than the description above.Music and mathematics are related.I was brilliant in maths from young but the music side i simply ignored as my passion from the age of 5 was engineering and singing at temple in recent times lead to singing in sanskrit which is impossible for the likes of me who was not born to a bramin who traditionally trained in sanskrit from young to work in temples.My opinions are known worldwide for more than 3 decades.. - kanvij
  • great video! - dougdmelo
  • Why does talking about it mean you don't understand that? It's dumb to say something shouldn't be discussed just because its purpose isn't to be discussed. - NeglectedField
  • hmm. id say the music reflects not who they are but who they perceive themselves to be after listening to and rating music they already have preconceived ideas about in terms of who listens to that type of music. So we apply stereotypes to ourselves favorably. - owl975
  • nothing new concluded from this, then - yueli7
  • This is more about subcultural affiliations than the music itself. - NeglectedField
  • Perharps we can discover the personality of people who don´t have to much personality. Only like one kind of music, they are closed to any other kind and disguise and act as the sterotype of these kind of music videoclips - LutxyKortinhas
  • What exactly makes happy music happy though, and what you might think of as happy music i might think isn't happy at all. It may seem like an obvious conclusion to you, but shouldn't be ignored entirely. - Flantastic13
