i bet those ppl u mention that dont listen to music have listened to it or
listen to it when they go to events naturally in life. music cant be avoided
anywhere. unless you dont go to company parties, weddings, graduation
parties, retirement parties, birthday parties, and so on. you get the picture.

Ok, I'm not going to pretend I understood that because I don't. What exactly are you trying to say, that back in the roman days there was no language? And when exactly are these classical times?
AntiMagicMan wrote:Music is not life, not on a biological or cultural level. Stop talking crap.
And why on earth should I ask myself if life would be better if there was only language, that whole question is wrong on so many levels.

just brew it! wrote:So according to you, instrumental music is meaningless? Music without vocals is independent of language. Unless you consider music itself (irrespective of whether it has works or not) to be a form of language... then I might agree with you.
