169 people listen to music for different reasons and at different times. Why is music important to many people? Use specific reasons and examples to explain your answer.

Many people listen to music in their daily lives. They listen to music when driving to work, attending parties or just sitting at home. Why is music so important to them? In the following discussion, I would like to analyze this problem and provide some reasons to explain it

No issue is more important than the one that music could help us to reduce pressure. Almost all of us may face or encounter pressure more or less during our lives. However, by listening to music, people can get much relaxed and feel delighted again. For example, before races or games, many athletes would choose to listen to some music because music helps them to reduce pressure and anxiety. Students who are busy preparing for incoming exams also enjoy listening to music for the same reason. Therefore, listening to music is obviously a good way to reduce pressure.

Creating distinct atmosphere is another chief and head reason that music is important to many people. Different kinds of music can create different kinds of atmosphere. For instance, in a party, sweet background music makes us feel delighted. While in a night club, pop music let us feel excited. Music chosen in different occasions can really change our mode to some extent.

The third, not the last is that music shortens the distance among people. Music gives us common topics upon which we could know each other better. For instance, after listening to a certain piece of music, we would probably talk about the rhythm, the singer or the instruments of it. In this process, we become more familiar with each other because of the common interest: music. Furthermore, people who are in favor of a certain kind of music or a certain singer would sometimes set up clubs and appreciate music they preferred together. In this aspect, music is a kind of ligament among different people.

To sum up, given reasons discussed above, which sometimes intertwine to form an organic whole and thus become more persuasive, we may find it obvious that music is important to many people because it can help us reduce pressure, create distinct atmosphere in different occasions and shorten the distance among us.

Many people listen to music in their daily lives. They listen to music when driving to work, attending parties or just sitting at home. Why is music so important to them? In the following discussion, I would like to analyze this problem (THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM. YOU’RE NOT USING THE CORRECT WORD TO EXPRESS YOURSELF) and provide some reasons to explain it

No issue is more important than the one that music could help us to reduce pressure. Almost all of us may face or encounter pressure more or less (SOMETIMES) during our lives. However, by listening to music, people can get much relaxed and feel delighted again. For example, before races or games, many athletes would choose to listen to some music because music helps them to reduce pressure and anxiety. Students who are busy preparing for incoming exams also enjoy listening to music for the same reason. Therefore, listening to music is obviously a good way to reduce pressure.

Creating distinct atmosphere is another chief and head (MAIN) reason that music is important to many people. Different kinds of music can create different kinds of atmosphere. For instance, in a party, sweet (SOFT??) background music makes us feel delighted. While in a night club, pop music let us feel excited. Music chosen in different occasions can really change our mode (MOOD??) to some extent.

The third, (THE LAST BUT NOT LEAST) not the last is that music shortens the distance among people. Music gives us common topics upon which we could know each other better. For instance, after listening to a certain piece of music, we would probably talk about the rhythm, the singer or the instruments of it. In this process, we become more familiar with each other because of the common interest: music. Furthermore, people who are in favor of a certain kind of music or a certain singer would sometimes set up clubs and appreciate music they preferred together. In this aspect, music is a kind of ligament among different people. (YOU CAN ALWAYS TALK ABOUT THAT MUSIC IS A COMMON LANGUAGE AMONG PEOPLE WHO SPEAK DIFFERENT LANGUAGES)

To sum up, given reasons discussed above, which sometimes intertwine to form an organic whole (?? UNCLEAR)and thus become more persuasive, we may find it obvious that music is important to many people because it can help us reduce pressure, create distinct atmosphere in different occasions and shorten the distance among us.
