Music makes us feel sad because it reminds us of our own feelings. When we hear a song, it might make us think about something happy or sad that happened to us. The music helps us feel those memories more clearly, like when you listen to your favorite song and suddenly feel really happy or really sad.
Examples
- You hear your favorite song from when you were 10, and suddenly feel really happy.
- A sad ballad reminds you of a friend who moved away, and you start to cry.
- Your mom sings you a lullaby you used to love, and you fall asleep feeling calm.
