Just filling in here: there are plenty of examples that a person can be is a true asshole as a fellow human, but still be serene as an angle in the music he or she creates. Or vice versa. > When i talk to people and say i like Pink > floyd or Camaron de la Isla and love dalí they say "oh > too depressive for me".But for me it doesnt feel that > way,it just feels deep and sends me shivers,i once had > a girlfirend that would become really stressed and > irritated everytime i played a king Crimson album! > the different perception and its preference behind is > what still intrigues me... I think that's because when a person listens to music it activates the same inner (psychological and emotional) mechanisms that also go with "taking action". So if your girlfriends personality (at that time) urged here to do things in a different way that the music implied for her, it explains her feelings of stress. Since the clashing happens at such a deep level i ones mind it's not even sure the person understands what's going on; typically only senses the threatening feeling, as if asked to do something one don't want to do.
