With Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (FMRI), a research team recorded a group of individuals who were listening to music. They found that listening to music recruits the auditory areas, and employs large-scale neural networks in the brain. In fact, they believe music can activate emotional, motor, and creative areas of the brain.

Changes asso­ci­ated with learn­ing occur mostly at the con­nec­tions between neu­rons.

• An emotional attachment could be the reason for your favorite song choice. Favorite songs are often context-dependent.
