      I think so. A song can make you think about something in a new way, which could dramatically change your life. Or it could just make you want to cry.

      I think that songs help to encourage emotions, which can really help people to express the way they feel, or feel allowed to have certain emotions. I think they can be very helpful.

      I agree. Music seems to be able to release your emotions better than just words alone.
      People who write sad songs must be able to clear a lot of sad emotions out of their head, and sad people who hear them must get comfort from knowing that they’re not alone.
