I was watching The Grand Budapest Hotel yesterday, and this is on the intro and outro:


What sort of feeling does it bring to you, generally melancholic, peaceful, that sort of thing?

I've been listening to it more since, and I can't figure out why. It has no lyrics (It's just yodeling), so the only suggestive part of it is the rhythm, slow, almost well thought out. But it's made me think more about music in general.

So, why does music, even instrumentals without a single word uttered, portray and evoke such emotions?

Art is just human emotion expressed in different forms. Those emotions cause us to feel emotions.

It sickens me that you imply music without lyrics couldnt evoke emotions.

Thank you. Now I am no longer obligated to write several paragraphs. You make my day!

lol if you went more in depth you could say your post was art. Expressing your opinions and feelings of expression itself through text.
