Answer 2

From an evolutionist point of view, our brain is needed for us to make the right decision. It is pretty much a binary operation where anything perceived as pleasant produces the hormone dopamine in our body. With time, we form an evaluation of anything that we recognize as a binary number of the states good and bad.

Music is rhythm and it appears that rhythm is probably our first sensual experience already as a fetus.

It is then not unusual that music give us a feeling of pleasure, when we find the theme pleasant, and remembrance, which can bring deep feelings like goose bumps and tears in our eyes.

Of course, the sensibility to music varies a lot as it is not only related to Nature (inherited instincts) but Nurture (our own experience of the world).

Growing up in a musical family may trigger both behaviour as it all rests in the way we accepted it as something good, thus creating dopamine, or bad.

Answer 3

All this talking about touching is creepy and uncomfortable.

Music can affect brain waves, that's a fact. Music can be soothing or invigorating, uplifting or saddening. Yeah, it's pretty much mistery how simple sound waves can affect us so much.
