Do you find music is an escape?

Do you find that you are able to escape from your problems by listening to music?

Yep. Listen to loads of music and it really helps me to clear my head.

Not really. Listening to music inspires me and often makes me feel happy or excited, but I never use it to escape.

More this. Couldn't live without music/books.

I enjoy listening to music and for 90% of the time when I'm at my home computer I'll have some sort of music on but I wouldn't say it's an escape as such, I just like having the background noise of songs I enjoy.

Not as much anymore but certainly when I was younger and all the way through my teens, music for an escape from the real world is a blessing.

yup, listen go to "another place" and forget all troubles for that time, then it's back to reality unfortunatly

This.

I don't know if anything could be worse for me then a day in college without music

take everything else away if you like but not the music!

Music deffo helps me escape from the boredom that is my job. And the dire songs they play on the radio at work. I put my headphones on at 7:30am and they don't come off till 4:30, every day.

.... and more often than not it helps me relax. I can't imagine a world without it.

I couldn't live without music, but mainly because I wouldn't have any money.

I agree though, music makes one feel things that nothing else can inspire, and I can't imagine living in a world without it.
