Gloupipoo 1,619 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 idk why but I can't listen to Coldplay or the Killers because they give me MASSIVE anxiety I get the feeling of impending doom when their music plays, as if the apocalypse is coming. Anyone else has musical triggers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akhuun 1,166 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 A particular k-pop group. Their music gives me some sort of anti-nostalgia. I start to remember everything bad that happened in my childhood. There's nothing objectively bad about their songs tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Hamster Named Loneliness 3,680 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 not sure if this counts but the original Lavender Town music from Pokemon RBY gave me so much anxiety as a kid, and still gives me the chills. If I forget to turn off the sound before stepping foot into Lavender Town or accidentally forget that I was in Lavender Town when I last saved and turn the sound on, I would freak out at hearing the first few notes and try to turn off the sound as quickly as possible. And this doesn't cause me anxiety but just hearing What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction annoyingly reminds me of when I used to live in the dorms and the girls living in the room upstairs would blast that song at a loud volume practically everyday, even during midterms and finals week.

nugu? 214 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 It doesn't normally happen to me, but NCT 127's Fire Truck horrified me and made me cry. The MV reminded me of movies by Lars van Trier and how he depicts emotions, especially depression and despair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIRE BIRD 434 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Nothing horrifies me in kpop so far. I just can't stand a piano instrumental that frequently used in tv whenever there's someone passed away. it makes me feel depressed in no time. Also lykke li's posibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sakurahanabira 6,634 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 ever since that ASPCA commercial I can't listen to Sarah McLachlan's Angel without getting anxious and depressed over animals anymore. Same with Kelly Clarkson's Because of You since it reminds me of my bad abusive relationship with my mother and makes me anxious and cry whenever I listened to it.
