1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: You found this study about how music impacts people. 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it says men form their strongest musical memories around 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 2: the age of sixteen. Yeah, women, however, peak at the 4 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 2: age of nineteen. 5 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 1: Well, it is fascinating too, And I was thinking about 6 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: this as I was driving in today, about how music 7 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: is like a marker of time. And so I've been 8 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,639 Speaker 1: listening to all this new I mean it's old, but 9 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: it's the newly released Nebraska stuff. And that album in 10 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: which the new Bruce Springs movie is based had such 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: a profound impact on my life because I was going 12 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 1: through a pretty rough point in my own life. And 13 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: now what I probably recognized was a mixture of my 14 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: obsessive compulsive disorder and depression. And like you think about 15 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: like when you're young, your community is your world, and 16 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: then after you like graduate high school and you're still 17 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: a teenager, but yet you're an adult, like you're exposed 18 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: to that this world is massive, and your whole little 19 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: world that you knew collapses, like it goes away, like 20 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: everybody goes in their own way, and then you realize, 21 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: I have to start my own universe all over again. 22 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: Like those were a lot of the things that I 23 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: was struggling with and this Nebraska album was that, Like 24 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 1: it was like this voice from above going, hey, I 25 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,759 Speaker 1: get you, because he was going through the same thing 26 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: in his own life, older but going through sort of 27 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 1: these same things, and these characters are like a reflection 28 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: of the struggles and pain that they're having. And it's like, 29 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, you just just look, man, these guys 30 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: were going through the same thing you were, and you 31 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: keep going and it'll get better. And like, when I 32 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: was listening to this stuff again the past couple of days, 33 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: all of those memories of that moment in time just 34 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: came flooding. 35 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 3: Right, and all the feelings that you associate to that time. 36 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: Man. 37 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 2: And that's interesting you say that, because according to the study, 38 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 2: men often use music for rebellion, independence, and peer identity, 39 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 2: and that's why they gravitate towards genres like rock or metal, 40 00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: whereas women tend to engage with music that is emotional expressions, 41 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: social connection, and processing relationships, and they develop that over 42 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: a longer period. 43 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: So minutes sixteen, where music has the biggest impact on. 44 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 2: You, yep, and women is at nineteen. Men typically maintain 45 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 2: a lifelong connection to their teenage music, so what you 46 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: listen to at sixteen years old, you tend to keep 47 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: that in your life, whereas women gravitate more towards recent music, 48 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 2: the new stuff, which. 49 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 3: Would give credence to why top forty. 50 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: Music, which is the newest stuff new artists is always 51 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 2: targeted towards women. 52 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: Now here's what's interesting, Like for me, I didn't listen 53 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: to any music almost from my generation when I was 54 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: that age. So we're going to go through, like what 55 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: the top songs were when I was sixteen. I bet 56 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: I may not know any of these songs. 57 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: Okay, here I have the top five songs from the 58 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 2: year two thousand, right, Yeah, that'd be right because you 59 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 2: were sixteen in the year two thousand, that's right, Yeah, 60 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: listing them as Faith, Hill, Breathe. 61 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, I've heard that one. 62 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Santana featuring Rob Thomas Smooth. 63 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well a lot of these, you know what 64 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 1: A lot of these are from. There used to be 65 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: a local TV station that played nothing but music videos. 66 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: Like there was no comment there. It wasn't like MTV 67 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: where it was some big production and I'd get up 68 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 1: in the morning and it'd be on. Because I think 69 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: it was the same channel or around the same channel 70 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: as the QVC, and I used to love to watch 71 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: the QVC guys in the morning sell stuff. I thought 72 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: that was fascinating to watch them get people to buy 73 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: crab channel. 74 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the music so yeah. 75 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: So some of these I'm recognizing from those music videos. 76 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 2: It reminds me of the playlist from WZPL from back then. 77 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: Destiny's Child, Say My Name Yeah, Backstreet Boys. 78 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 3: Wan oh yeah, yeah yeah, Mariah Carey thank God I 79 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 3: found you. 80 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: So I know all of those songs, I di I 81 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: never listened to any of them like actively, or did 82 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: not pursue them, but I'm impressed wise and I did. 83 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: I do know all five of those songs now. 84 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 2: The top five songs from when I was nineteen Chicago 85 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: look Away by Brown, My Prerogative, Poison, every Rose has 86 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: Its Thorn. 87 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 3: Yep, Paula Abdul, Straight Up, and Janet Jackson Miss You Much. 88 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: Oh wow. 89 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember listening to all of those songs.

The 94 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: music that moves a lot of people m hmm isn't 95 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: always the stuff that is the hits because sort of like, 96 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: especially when you're younger, music is about a connection to 97 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: the person or the thing or the band and what 98 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: they put forward and so much. Especially it's probably not 99 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: true anymore, but with older music, the connection was found 100 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: in the little gems that existed in the albums. Right, 101 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: it's not the thing that everybody else got here, because 102 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: everybody else got to hear that you found things on 103 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: these albums that I'm a fan and they're not playing 104 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: this on the radio, and I've found this and this 105 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: is sort of my connection and I have this and 106 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: other people don't have this because I've worked my way 107 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: through the record or the album and I don't know. 108 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm the only Maybe that's just me. 109 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: Rob. 110 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: You're a sick, twisted, demented soul, and that's only you, 111 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: Cave you're the musician. 112 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I could see. It's more personal. Yeah, And it's 113 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 3: a part of the album listening experience, Unlike you're just 114 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 3: hearing all these songs one hundred times a day on 115 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 3: the rail. Okay, so it's special. 116 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 2: The reason you're saying this, according to this study, is 117 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 2: that music engages your hippocampus, your Amigdala and your medical 118 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 2: prefrontal cortex, which combines emotion and memory.
