A fantasy whose strength is dependent on the emotional intensity of the song. A musical fantasy growing stronger each time the song is heard. Each song is like a daydream that has escaped its composer and lives a life of its own in the psyches of its listeners. Each musical fantasy is a reality in the dream world. Whenever we hear a familiar song associations are triggered in our psyches reaching back to all those other times we have heard that song in the past.
All music is an animation of consciousness.
This consciousness is expressed as emotion. Many consider it normal to listen to whatever music is coming over the airwaves. They regard this as natural and the effect on their feelings as natural. They think to place their emotions on a musical roller coaster of happy and sad, as well as, myriad other strong feelings is the way to go. A song spins a fantasy in the imagination of the listener.
