New song

I wrote a new song recently that has a very intergalactic, psychedelic sound to it. Which made me wonder how do sounds affect what we feel and the images that they bring to mind. More up beat music brings to mind happiness and joy, while slower music may still bring happiness, but also make us reflect on what we have done in the past, and possibly bring us sadness. It is interesting to me because how can a sound inspire an image or how something with no shape can make one think of something with definite shape? These things are all a part of what I believe makes music such a desirable commodity. Music allows the mind to travel to a place that is whatever we want it to be. Listening to music that you like, lets the mind travel to a place with the mentality of the music your listening to. For example, mellow music may bring the mind to a beach or 80s hair metal may bring you to the top of a volcano, as you shred a guitar solo while riding a lightning bolt pulled by flying horses with flames hooves. Which ever scenario we crave at the time generates the desire to listen to that type of music.
