How can a song change someone's life ? They are all crap, the only one whose life can be changed by a song is a ladiesman or a gay.

What's strange about that ? Have you ever heard a song that contains something really serious ? Songs are all about romance, sex and stuff like that, they are never as powerful as movies, games or novels.. so when someone's life is changed because of a song and not because of any of those, what would you like to call him ?

Those things are life though. What would it be without them?
Some people have probably just woken up and really heard music and what it can do. T'is called passion, with a meaning.

Call them what you like, all it only reflects on you. If you really believe songs are only about romance and sex then you've either been living under a rock or you're an idiot. Listen to something like One by Metallica. It's about a guy injured in a war and is now lying in a hospital bed with no limbs or sight or hearing and doesn't know if he really exists or not:
Darkness!
Imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
Landmine!
Has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell
That's pretty powerful from where I'm sitting.
And then there's 'Ace of Spades' by Motorhead, which is perfect for moshing. :)
