The genre, time and place one plays music has the ability to change their entire mood. While running, if playing upbeat music, it motivates and pushes you to keep running faster and faster. Slow music can cause the opposite effect; someone who was previously in a productive mindset will suddenly become lethargic. Sad music has the ability to make one reflect on themselves, especially late at night when they are all alone in their rooms. Playing throwback songs such as the high school musical soundtrack, causes people to feel nostalgic, reminiscing on good old times. The idea of being with friends having the feeling of happiness and tranquility is created when listening to indie songs. Pick carefully when choosing what genre to listen to because it will definitely impact your mood.
