People who listen to music regularly, how sad would you be if you were permanently deprived of the ability to listen to any music ever again for the rest of your life?

    Extremely sad. I do often wonder what the last song I will ever listen to will be, and along with that if the song I am listening to right now will be the last time I ever hear it.

    I don’t know if I could live honestly. Too quiet. I listen to music from 10am to bedtime (if i’m home and not otherwise occupied) then play music in my sleep. Sometimes I watch music videos instead of tv

    I look for new music to add to my collection every year and make a playlist for every year. I started purchasing and “purchasing” music again this year and saving it all to a drive.

    I love all kinds of music and love to sing. That would be such a sad life

    What’s the point of even living like that?

    I genuinely don’t know how I would live without listening to music, it’s my escape from reality. So to answer you question, it would break me

    Am I allowed to learn to play an instrument myself? That’s what I’d do

    I will grieve for a bit, and I will adapt. Humans can get used to anything.

      Alternatively, use telepathy to mind read other’s feeling the music they listen to.

    Music keeps me going through life, whether it be listening on mobile, on vinyl at home, live at gigs/raves/concerts

    I wouldn’t survive

    I don’t even know. I could live without every other form of media, but I really don’t know what I’d do without music. I’d rather lose a limb

    Oh man… Music lifts me out of a funk really quick. I’d be depressed and way more grumpy. I’m always listening to something

      Naah don’t do that. Beethoven went deaf and that didn’t stop him. There are other deaf musicians out there: Evelyn Glennie for one. And I’ve played for a deaf person who said she was able to feel the vibrations even if she couldn’t hear them, so she definitely appreciated the performance.
