Music and emotions

Hi. Just wondering if anyone find music a big emotional influence?

I am finding the last few years if I hear certain songs I get emotional. Sometimes I could be driving (which I love doing) and a song I like comes on I get almost tearfully emotional and not sure if it’s happy or sad.  
doesn’t happen every time but more so lately ( have been feeling low of late) 

just wondered other people’s thoughts. 
thanks

  • I see it's been a while, but I find this topic relatable, so I decided to chime in. It's amazing how a particular song or melody can evoke such strong feelings and memories. I've had those moments where a particular piece comes on, and it hits me right in the feels, whether it's happiness, sadness, or a mix of both. That's the power of music - it can connect us to our emotions in a way that nothing else can. I found an online site teaching art to kids [link removed by Moderator]  and even I am learning new things about music theory there. I'm even thinking of getting a full course. What can I say.. I love music!
