Do you believe that music can save lives?

I don't see anyone saying "x album/song saved my life" in 2024…it would seem odd too today, feels like a very 2000s/early 2010s sentiment.

I don't know if it's literally the reason someone is saved but I can agree with the sentiment that it gets us through hard times. The thing is people don't realize it until after they get through an ordeal and can look back and remember if there were particular songs/artists that they noticed they leaned heavily on.

Absolutely! 

When I was in a psych ward they taught us "skills:" things that help you when you're having a really bad panic attack or are overwhelmed, su*cidal etc. And one of the things on the list was to listen to music that gives you positive feelings. It obviously isn't that easy and needs practice but music can literally become a skill for you to deal with hard moments.

I believe people ultimately save their own lives but music and other forms of media are a big help that would make the journey much harder without them. We're definitely lucky to have more healthy forms of escapism today :squirrel:

Well I'd die if I was forced to listen to Katy's new music so if the reverse is true…
