I love reading with music I’m literally doing that now 😂😂 I can’t read without music. Most time I love the music really loud because I block people out that way prevents me from falling asleep while reading. I have different genre of music for what I’m reading. Now I’m read Atomic habits book for class so I’m streaming Bruno Mars songs then more relaxing songs. If I was solving mathematics or statistics I’d be listening to Nigerian music because it’s usually loud and active. Even going to the gym I need my MUSIC 😂😂😂
Oh I can't go to the gym WITHOUT my headphones to listen to music!
with lyrics that I like or know? no.
if you are listening to music that I don't like and or don't know, and I am there reading, I can continue reading.. but if you put music I like with lyrics I know I will automatically start singing and cannot read properly after that so I need it off! or leave.
yes... that is how I've done it all the time myself, music can bring me to focus because it will sort of, drown all other thoughts and "noise" around me... and will let me focus on the things I actually want to work on
and... I also put some music on while the children that I tutor are doing their tests, at first they thought it was odd and a bit distracting but now they're quite used to that... lol
Lol yeah. Bidirectional I turned the music on my mind kept wandering.
parts of my mind will keep wandering all over, all the time... but I've gotten used to that, lol
I don't know what bidirectional is but it was supposed to be before lol
I never got that. Reading requires a lot of concentration. I would have to shut everything else out.
Unless you're of the philosophy that music is just some kind of entertainment or background noise. That's not me though.
Music is way more than that. But I have trouble reading when it's super quiet. I need some kind of noise

Well yeah, kind of. I plug the music out of my head while reading, so it's not like I notice the music that much unless I get out of my head for a moment.
But I do prefer to have some background music or one of those tv-shows I've seen a million times.
No, I get way into the music and put the book down. It's like electricity moves through my body when music is playing. I can't help but sing along and dance a little haha
Lol I listen to music that won't make me wanna have a concert lol
Lol that's a good point
Yes, I can! I have playlists that don't distract me (just ones that aren't songs I'll sing along to).
I thought this q was about music reading at first and I was so prepared 😭
Lmao aww sorry
I sometimes like to listen to electronic/R&B and non mainstream music when reading. It feels like I’m opening up a more creative realm and can read/process information better.
Yessss
Yeah, but it depends on the music.
No singing etc.
Has to be instrumental.
And not something that requires too much attention, and not too loud.
No. Cannot multitask at that level.
Heck, I cannot even read and listen to the same book at the same time!
Read only here.
I hate audiobooks
Yes, especially during my high school years, it was very common for me to do my homework while listening to music. Nowadays I am able to work while listening to music/radio, but not when reading scientific articles. Probably ASMR would be more suitable.
Not all the time. When I have trouble focusing, I prefer instrumental music or silence. If in the mood for music, I prefer light music that isn't distracting, preferably playing softly in the background.
I can read, write and listen to music at the same time
I probably write better when music is on lol
Yeah but it can't be music with too many vocals. Ideally instrumental music.
no not wiles reading i can't listen to music because when i read i like to see the picture of the words iam reading in my head to make it feel good and concentrate on it music puts me off reading i can listin to great music and speak on gag but reading book is diffrent if u want to enjoy ure book see parts of the story in ure head and concentrate on the story
Yes except I need to choose what I'm reading and what music I pair to it carefully because they seem to imprint on each other in my mind.
For example, I was reading mein kampf when Linkin parks meteora album came out. Listened to to that album on repeat all the way through the book.
Anyways now when I listen to any song from that album i think of Hitler. It's ridiculous.
And also typing at the same time intoxicated, which is what I'm currently doing! I honestly feel more creativity depending on what I play during reading or writing.
Drunk textingggg
Different people have different styles/methods of learning. Some people prefer a quiet, comfy place while reading and on the other hand some like to listen to music or simply have something play in the background so as to add a lively feel. And I'm one of them.
Yes… IF (& ONLY "IF") there are no lyrics in a language I understand.Otherwise, it has to be instrumental or in a foreign-language.
Nope, I will be jamming to hard to focus on anything, I can barely concentrate when I don't have music and there's sound around me, imagine having a party in my ears while I'm reading
I can do lots of things while listening to music, which is, in many ways, just background noise.
Yes I can but my mom doesn't allows me to study while listening music. She says it will distract me but I can concentrate more deeply with music.
As for me I can multitask & when it comes to reading I can read while listening to music & I can write listening to music as well.
Not only can I read and listen to music at the same time, but I can also write a story and listen to music at the same time! Even music with lyrics or without lyrics! :D I know... I know... impressive... xD lmao
Lol like I told someone else, I write better when I listen to music.
