Why do we like music?
Why do we like music? Is it related to speech? Is it entirely social? The only animals I know of that enjoy it as much as us are birds. (most mammals, even chimps and dogs, ignore music)

1 回复I think that one of the core enjoyments derived from music is the same that we get from humor. The ability to both be surprised and the pleasure that comes from recognizing a pattern and using it to predict what's "coming next". Both humor and music have a rhythm and require a sense of timing, spotting the pattern, knowing that something is about to happen, and going "aha!" when it occurs makes our brains feel as if they have "done a good job".

1 回复If you believe in evolution, it's probably because back in our tribal days music brought us together and helped us share a sense of unity, thereby strengthening the bonds we have with each other, and thus, strengthening our people as a whole and keeping out survivability up. Keep in mind this is from an evolutionary point of view. I don't necessarily believe it, it's just something I thought out while in the shower.

my guess is that music makes us feel or think a certain way every time we listen to it. the artist can help bring out personal emotions/memories of a listener they have never met. Music epitomizes the very thing that makes us social beings without human interaction and due to the range of emotions it can emit, music becomes a drug for the brain.

由Ttasmmv编辑： 1/12/2014 2:35:41 PMI'd think it's because we understand abstractions. A painting is an abstraction of our sight that animals would not appreciate, because it takes a human mind to interpret the 2D strokes of colour as a familiar 3D image of significance. One must be able to understand the abstraction before appreciating it. Music is an abstraction of human emotion. We recognize that, and that recognition allows us to appreciate it. Why we prefer certain musical patterns over others I don't know. Perhaps music theory can shed a light on the subject? Animals that use song to communicate, such as birds, may respond to our music, but I don't know if they enjoy it.
