Comment Detect people who listen to lyrics? (Score 1) 28
The lyrics part of the song is interesting, I think, for brain function research.
When I listen to music, I rarely parse the language of the lyrics - they're mostly just more music. I might be able to sing along with most of the chorus and still not really know what the song is about.
My daughter, on the other hand, always listens to the story of the lyrics.
I wonder if there are measurable differences in our brain response to the same song?
