in regards to: “I believe there have been many scientific studies done on just this topic.”

thanks for the comment. I need to clarify…
I was more thinking about the idea that science cannot explain how I feel because how I feel is a metaphysical thing. Naturalist Science is materialistic in nature, and therefore leaves no room for “feelings” (except to be explained by an excess of a certain checmical in your brain).

I would be interested in hearing what science has said about how music affects our moods. I would be surprised if any of the studies claimed to explain where mood comes from, however.
