Q: how does music help us feel so much better? Not just the words or lyrics, but everything else, too  - the sounds, the instruments, the rhythm, etcâ¦ how is music so good? and how come some people don't like music????
A: it gets directly to the 'point' of life, which, if you ask yourself what it is, it's hard to answer, but it comes down to playing with time. music plays with time on a vast range of timescales, from minutes all the way down to milliseconds
