Positive Music

The term positive music may be unfamiliar to some people. When we use the term positive to describe music, we are using it to describe music that has beneficial qualities and is emotionally and spiritually uplifting, perhaps even healing. Additionally, positive music can be relaxing, calming, and mentally invigorating. Positive music is not about lyrics, but about the music itself.

During the early 1950’s, every song that you heard on the radio was positive. Pop songs were romantic, filled with feeling; country tunes were upbeat, and fun; people listened to polkas: they were fun and spirited; and rhythm and blues (or race music, as it was called then) was clever and evocative. At that time, there was no term to describe positive music because there was little music that wasn’t positive. But now, the airwaves are filled with pain-filled, angry heavy-metal  music: music that is grating and highly disturbing to the nervous system, and "alternative music" that is tortured, ugly, and nervous. Because of the quantity of negative music that society now accepts, there is now a great need to understand the difference between music that is positive, healthy and healing, and music that is negative, depressing, unhealthy and stress-inducing.
