Do you share music as a way of showing love?
Is one of your love languages sharing music with your partner?
Do you share music as a way of showing love?
I wouldn't call it it a love language but I do share music with my wife.
Our musical tastes are different. I was a rock musician and vocalist in high school through my early 30s. She liked to go to disco clubs and dance. I hated disco shit back then and she couldn't relate to rock at all. She thought it was head banger noise.
I have come to appreciate some of the music she used to dance to. And I introduced her to music over the years that I'm passionate about.
Every once in a while, when I'm in a certain mood, I'll play her some Jimi Hendrix to show her how beautiful and imaginative some of his stuff was. Or I'll play a Deep Purple, Jethro Tull, Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath or Led Zeppelin song, tell her what to listen for, and explain why I think it's so great. I tell her about rock concerts that I attended.
She's still not a rocker, but she understands where I'm coming from and likes a few of the songs a lot.
We knew a couple who had 4 or 5 karaoke parties at their house every year between 2005 and 2020. My wife liked to sing duets with me on a few songs like "I've Got You Babe" by Sonny and Cher, "Ferry Cross the Mersey" by Gerry and the Pacemakers, "Rhythm of the Rain" by the Cascades, "Daydream Believer" by Davy Jones, and stuff like that.
At home, we both love oldies songs like
She likes to sing the "Bay yay be" part. LOL
I imitate his voice.
And a song she really gets into singing together is
"The beating of our hearts is the only sound"... and I tap my chest (boom boom, boom boom, boom boom, boom boom). LOL. And we both sing really loud.
Absolutely yes!!
Yep, when I was in a relationship we would send each other songs... and the songs usually matched the vibe of the relationship at the time... in some way. Its nice lol
When my ex started dealing with mental illness, weeks would go by where id feel depressed because I was married to a stranger.
But then some days his old self would reappear... and id cherish those moments. Id let him know that I'd been missing the real him... and he sent this song.
https://youtu.be/rK4Xh3muko4?si=oqYpQLXRqt6FsE9DThe chorus is the only part that matters really lol but it made me cry and I dont cry easily 😁
Aww girl it's a nice song and that's really nice that he sent you that. I cherish the moments with my ex when we would send songs back and forth to each other.
Sometimes we still do but it's not like it used to be.
Mental illness from a lover is very difficult to deal with. I sympathize !
I am the kind of person who needs to hear I love you or anything he appreciates about me from his mouth because as beautiful as music is, it can make me smile and blush but I appreciates his words of affection more and also how he shows his words through actions that's not exactly romantic like making a breakfast for me before I wake up and surprising me with my favourite breakfast or getting me a book that he remembered I mentioned a long time ago that I want to read but it wasn't available. These things makes me feel cherished more. 😅
Sharing music is like crafting a playlist for the soul. 🎶 My boyfriend and I often exchange gaming soundtracks, which adds a unique layer to our connection. It’s a special way to express emotions and create new memories, even outside the realm of gaming. I believe it's a wonderful way of showing love, just like sharing a favorite game or hobby. Embrace the harmony in every relationship! 😊

Of course every thing on this plant has a Frequency that is a beat a Rhythm.
No matter what your doing with each other your doing it together with a beat a flow that you don't hear your just in tune with each other
It's like slow dancing with each other to the music and Incorporated each other's rhythm into it as you move
It's the same thing with making love without music You become one you can read each other's minds You're every move, almost telepathically.
Sharing music does' the same exact thing And when you're both into the same thing, everything just becomes better, especially with music.
They say sound is what created us
So i've always thought maybe People That have anxiety attacks or panic attacks or like dogs They can hear something that we can't hear and it makes them on edge. Sorry I wish one of these days I will just answer the question lol
I'm a musician, mobile DJ, and Audio/Video Integrator. It's not difficult to figure out that music plays a big role in my life, so, yes, sharing music is definitely something important in my relationship. My Millennial girlfriend has only lived in the US for 16 or 17 years, so 20th Century music has been a whole new world for her.
She especially likes Disco, as she loves to dance.
It surely is one of the many ways I can use to convey identity and to make sense of her identity in listening to what she relates. I don't speak love languages, this concept doesn't really talk to me, I just speak relations and sharing, looking at everything waiting to be shared.
And without identity shared, love looks like a mirage, it can be a cool mirage, I don't disagree with that at all. But it's soooo rewarding to go beyond the mirror, I won't go back 😌
Sharing music isn't a love language. It isn't one of our primal emotional desires. At some point in time, humans didn't even have music.
That being said, sharing the same taste in music can definitely bond people, more so the more you value music in your life. But that goes for any similarity. Any similarities like views, interests, goals, sense of humor, sexual compatibility, etc. can be seen as things you can bond over the more similar you are to each other.
With music that motivates, hubby's began taking interest in dancing.
And, I've been giving him private lessons in my home studio whenever he's in the mood to learn.
It turns me on when he's motivated and dancing better than expected.
The reward is sex in the middle of my dance floor surrounded by mirrored walls.
Sharing music together can change your mood and it somehow can cause you to become romantic, playful, loving, happy, and the list goes on.
Singing together with the songs that you are listening to together can be fun. 😊
Indeed it can! 😊
It is for us. We discuss music, listen to music, and play music as I play keyboards and guitar while he plays guitar, bass, and drums. We will even call each other during our workdays to discuss music-related topics. It is a considerable part of our lives.
It was but my wife isn't in to listening to music. Now it's fod at the right time of the right sort from the right place with the right extras that can vary from time to time
I listen to a lot of music. A lot of the music I listen to relates to me in some way. I think sharing our music is another way we learn about each other
Not really, our music taste isn't exactly the same & the music we do share, ain't really lovey dovey music.
I really enjoy music. There’s always music going on when I’m driving
this is a nice driving around drive around song didn’t I send you that video two years ago in a question

I don't think so. But there's always music going on when I'm driving as well!
Perhaps I did. Sorry.
Very much so. Music is the language of the soul and I send messages through musical selections.
Long philosophical discussions that last for hours late at night looking up at the stars.
Also art. I have learned so much from her. We both love art museums.
I would say so, yes. Listening to music in silence is amazing. And bickering about the type of music to listen to, would suck.
There has been a few girlfriends over the years where we exchanged songs having some sort of sentimentality within them.
I voted no, It's just something I share with just about anyone.
Nope... mine main one is physical touch too... and another is thoughtful gifts and playfully teasing
I wish I had a girl to listen to music with lol
Why do you have to phrase it in such a contemptibly corny way?
I don't really "share music". I just have it playing. Always. Otherwise I'd be alone with my tinnitus, and I can't abide that.
I often share my feelings through the music I share. So, yes.
That isn't one of the love languages
I know but it can be a form of showing love and sort of falls under acts of service because you are providing new music to your partner.
I'm single, but if I had a girlfriend, it would be.
My partner and I have a love song.
I have pretty eclectic musical tastes.
Yes but I have no partner :(
Awww! That's cute! 😉
Yes.
Not really
