Sad songs


When we´re feeling down we usually listen to sad music, don´t we?
Researchers at the Free University of Berlin have recently discovered that listening to sad songs when feeling lonely or distressed improves our emotional wellbeing as well as make us feel at peace and consolated by it.

The study says that sad music stirs up a mixture of complex and ‘partially positive’ emotions like nostalgia, peacefulness, tenderness, transcendence and wonder... and that helps us.

Do you agree? Why/why not?
What´s the saddest song you´ve ever listened to?

Anyway, against all research, I still prefer Pitbull when I ' m feeling down ;)
