Glad this thread got resurrected.
I'm getting deeper and deeper...experimenting on my own mind through electronic composition.

Yes music can definitely change you, I usually listen to very uplifting music like the dead, classical, dance music, reggae, world music, but I go through periods where I listen to heavy metal, and music with darker lyrics/song structures.
Currently I have binging on nine inch nails, which can be very negative if you're not prepared for it, but I don't always like everything to be lovey dovey all the time because then I feel unbalanced. Trent is an amazing song writer though, and he's very good with the piano which is great.
I notice when I listen to darker styles of music, I tend to be more negative on myself, but I can only find happiness when I am negative on myself sometimes, it's like I pull inspiration from the negative thoughts. I used to open the window in the winter time and lay half naked in the cold winter air with the lights off while shaking and freezing, sounds crazy I am sure, but I really wanted to experience the realness of emptiness, I feel like people run from that side of themselves so much that when something negative happens in their life, they're unprepared and the depression swallows them whole. So I would feel depression coming on, and welcome it, lay in the cold blasting depressing/dark music, I wanted to embrace that side of me, not run from it, much inspiration can be gleaned from embracing your damage, I wanted to break my flesh, to go past the cold, to go past the feeling of freezing, empty, hopelessness I was experiencing in the darkness, and from that some interesting thoughts always emerged, and the music really added to the experience.
Two albums I have so much love for which tend to favor the darker side, are both from Nine Inch Nails. One is called The Downward Spiral, and the other is called The Fragile, but haven't heard an album of Trent's that I don't love, but those two hit really close to home for me, and are like a drug I keep coming back to time and time again.

all love songs are about god, about discovering our relationship with the universe, reality.
some songs lyrics are convoluted, making it hard to see the connection, such as "tainted love" by Soft Cell, not all love songs are positive, reflecting the state of awareness of the author.
some songs are more to the point, the one below is about earth magic, which is the process of being human, an animated lump of dirt powered by sun energy, the love affair between the Mind and Every Thing in the universe, and how to thrive in that relationship.
Feel so good I feel so fine Love that little lady always on my mind Gives me lovin' every night and day Never gonna leave her, never goin' away
Someone to love me You know she makes me feel alright Someone who needs me Love me every single night
Feel so happy since I met that girl When we're making love it's something out of this world
Feels so good to know that she's all mine Going to love that woman 'til the end of time
Someone to live for Love me 'til the end of time Makes me feel happy Good to know that she's all mine
Lovely lady make love all night long Lovely lady never do me wrong I don't wanna leave ya I never wanna leave ya, anymore no more Lovely lady, mystifying eyes Lovely lady, she don't tell me no lies I know I'll never leave ya I'm never gonna leave ya anymore no more
-------------------- i like you...

music effects the very soul and mind, directly, of the listener, in a way that is profound, and in a way that's inexplicable -- it can be shown in neurological testing, but that doesn't account for the myriad of ways music directly changes your consciousness...music is akin to psychedelia.
