(Don't) Turn it up!
As I was listening to my daily dose of music today, I came across a song I particularly liked, and I couldn't stop myself from turning the volume up. This got me thinking about why we humans (well.. atleast most of us) seem to like our music loud. I did some googling and found this very interesting read, "The Seductive (Yet Destructive) Appeal of Loud Music". Quoting from the article:
"In one study, researchers found that loud music activated those brain regions that are associated with euphoria drugs, such as cocaine. There is evidence that music elevates endorphins connected with pleasure centers in the brain."
