I personally disagree. Timbre will give the music a certain quality, and while it's no doubt a big part of the experience, I think the dynamics of piece will be much more central to the emotional response. If a song has a sax solo th

Part of me came to this thread hoping to find that someone would have a similar situation to me, someone I could relate to. But that doesn't seem to be the case. I'm not estranged from my parents, but my sister is. And it's d

This sounds like it's coming from someone who has 0 experience with weed and has been told their whole life that it's bad and only bad people do it for bad reasons. And judging by the "repentance" language, probably a re

Wow, it's a good thing you caught that or else people may have been mislead. Phew. Crisis averted. We're lucky there are people as pedantic as you around.

What, we aren't allowed to talk about issues if we haven't already solved them? Surely you can see how ridiculous that sounds. Ironically, you're also saying "these proposals aren't good enough" without proposi

The Russian civil war after the 1917 revolutions had something like a dozen different socialist factions fighting each other. There's plenty to disagree about (to the point of going to war) even if you agree on "big picture"
