Personally, music has a great importance for me. I am listening to it a lot of the time that I spend on my own, so I feel a sort of afinity to the music I listen to (sounds a little cheesy but true :P). For me it is mainly the lyrics that I connect with, but obviously the music that accompanies it has an enormous effect on the tone of the record. Because I listen to a lot of rap, and for me the lyrics of rap are more accessible than songs, I can relate to the struggles some of them rap about e.g. their family, upbringing, issues in the world and other subjects.
However I listen to bands and soundtrack music which I also enjoy and feel is important to me. I enjoy writing and listen to tracks that act as inspiration and trigger scenes and emotions in my head (which I think is amazing).
There are songs that I listen to because I know they'll cheer me up and I'm sure that if I wanted to then I coul easily find songs that would make me feel sad, angry etc.

What do you use music for? And how much importance do you place on music in your life?

I think music is great for remembering past events. Sometimes i'll hear a song and remember something that i've completely forgotten about. Like the song Give it up to me~by Sean Paul reminds me of a girl i use to talk to on MSN, the song Slow Wind~By R. Kelly reminds me of when i first god photoshop because i use to listen to that song all the time when using it.

Men, on the other hand, tend to do the job properly when they crash, and as a result cost their insurance companies a lot more money.
Your right I'm a murderer; i kill people with a smile on my face, my parents say "what a disgrace" "get outta my face"...yet I walk away...with a smile on my face

Music is very important to me, among other reasons, for helping me write. The genre, the beat, the lyrics of a song can create a character for me, a scene, a place, a plotline, an atmosphere, anything. I've lost count of the number of characters and actions in stories I've written that are based on a song I've heard. That's just one reason for why music is important to me, and probably a few others.

Thanks to AngelicHottieDS for the sig - I owe you one!

...And it feels so good to be
Alive and on top
My reach is global
My tower secure
My cause is noble
My power is pure
I can hand out a million vaccinations
Or let'em all die in exasperation
Have'em all healed of their lacerations
Or have'em all killed by assassination...

I love music; listening to it, playing instruments, trying to write my own stuff (I should note that I fail 100% of the time...), anything.I love hearing other people covers of my favourite songs on YouTube, especially on weird instruments.
I couldn't live without music. There's hardly a time when I don't have my iPod on me.
Music just.... It's an ecape. It give me an oppurtunity to experience thing I may never experience, it creates emotion, passes on ideals, brings things to my attention. It's all I need, really. Sod human contact, all I need for the next 60 years is a guitar and a drum kit. :p
Can't be bothered changing the Alex one. Here's the Bioshock one again instead.

You wouldn't make it half a year. It's vitally important that you don't get too attatched to music or you become INCREDIBLY anti-social, no matter how much you love music. If you don't have human contact you become lonely and feel like ***** all the time, which in some cases the music doesn't help with.

I do love my music, mostly alternative/punk/rock and I sometimes wish that music actually played at specific moments of my life because it captures moods so well. If I run out of music to listen to it makes me sad, but I find something new and i move on. I play the guitar but I wish i could play the drums and piano and all manner of other instruments. I wish I could sing too, but at the moment I'll focus on my guitar and band activity.

I too think my iPod is essential for any travelling because its the best way to kill time if you're on your own, but if you're with people then its a no-no.

I intend to write my own songs, record those songs, start a band, write and record more songs, even if I never ever get publicity for it, I really want to do it.

Music is important to me. It helps create mood, atmosphere, and makes boring everyday silence into not-so-boring music time.

Also, everything needs a theme song. EVERYTHING.
