Hello people, I have talked to people about the music they like, and I have noticed a few things.
Examples of people:
For me, ISTp, the lyrics arent very important, its the overall sound of the song, I like 'atmospheric' sounding music
An INTj I know also dosent concentrate on the lyrics but the sound
An ENFp I have known for a while concentrates a lot on the lyrics, considers it what music is really about, likes rap music.
An ESTp I have known since I was a ickle, likes rock and heavy music, also like 'strong' dance music
Ok, thinking about other people and their types I think it goes something like this:
Si - lyrics not important, likes music which has a calm atmospheric effect on the inner state.
Se - lyrics and sound both important, likes strong music thats gets you pumped up.
Ti - lyrics not important, likes mainstream music and old classic songs
Te - lyrics and sound both important, likes mainstream music and old classic songs
Ni - dont know any
Ne - lyrics important sound not so much, likes music that has impactful lyrics that make sense and are about something recognisable
Fi - dont know
Fe - lyrics and sound both important, like mainstream stuff and popular music
These are guesses, I dont know if music style and type are very well correlated, and people usually have a strong like for music that was in their era, when they were teenagers or early twenties, but maybe there is a bit of a link to type. I find it interesting though that some people really listen to the words and judge a song quite heavily on the quality of the words, as its something I dont really consider.
Any thoughts??
