shake your head while listening to music and it'll sounds different...or go to a different room in the house and it could sound different/ try listening to a a song through a fan and trying to hum to the song through the fan too. haha its funny it'd be cool if we could record some of these things...

Oh good, I'm not crazy. Well....at least not this time. I've noticed this a lot lately, especially with Copeland songs. I play songs on my computer, which is in my living room. If I go to my bedroom and shut the door, it's like the pitch changes. If I come back out and get to the computer again, it's like the pitch changes again. I know it doesn't really and that it has something to do with location and acoustics all, but still.

And I spent a lot of my high school career singing into fans when I was bored ^^;;

The band Billy Talent did that to me. On the radio the singer sounds one way...but on CD players its different. Somthing in either the speakers...or my insane brain.

I don't think I've ever tried the fan thing... That reminds me of Tommy Boy though. :D

Shake my head while listening? Hmm... I know I've nodded or slightly headbanged. I never noticed a difference in sound though. Maybe I'll try these things some day when I'm bored.

I have noticed that some songs sound different when either I'm just sitting here like this or at the gym or something.

i cant see how you were sitting when you said "when either I'm just sitting here like this" which was a long long time ago but anyways, I havent shaken my head while listening to music but I have come a long way in discovering new ways to listen to music and also new music to listen to...in those new ways of listening to it. yay!

Golly, you'd think fans of Heavy Metal music have been headbanging to their music for many years now, but evidently such esoteric mysteries have remained undiscovered until now. At any rate, if you really want to start listening to music in a different way, learn to pay attention to the way music fills a space (like different kinds of rooms and whatnot), and how changing the music affects the way that space itself feels, or alterately, how changing the space affects the way the music feels.

[font="Trebuchet MS"][SIZE="4"][color="RoyalBlue"]To me, music sounds different when I have my earbuds on outside while mowing the grass. When I get to a particular point under the tree, the music slows down for some reason. The tempo gets slower. It's wild...[/color][/SIZE][/font]

I have actually noticed at moments that music I'm listening to seems slightly slower than normal. I believe that at those moments I am actually at my most alert. It's an interesting phenomenon - almost feels like a micro-scale "bullet time" effect. My reflexes are still pathetic, though. XD
