music while doing work? Options

[xPartyGrlDx]

do any of you listen to music while you do your homework? i used to listen to rock music while i was doing my algebra homework it actually helped me get finished with my homework faster. now when i listen to music while i do my homework, it does not help me at all which is sad

[dreamerOi]

depends. if i have to read something then nope. but if its like math or soemthing then yea.

[sharerol]

Well, sometimes. If I feel like listening to music, I might. But if otherwise, then no.

[x emo screamo x]

Most of the time it does. But sometimes it gets distracting. Like I start singing along. lol

[Danny]

yeah... because without music, my mind wanders... haha.. but my parents dont understand that so i cant listen to music while im doing my homework so it takes me about twice as long because now i go around the house more often during my homework time to eat and stuff

[pink_tootsie]

mm sometimes it help and sometimes it doesnt..

[pbear]

sometimes. if it's a song that i don't know/like, i do my homework.
if it's a song i like and know the words to, i get distracted and start singing along.

[xx angelbabu xx]

i usually listen to rock while i do my homework.. but that really doesnt help me cuz i lose my concentration.. oh well..

[Chaos13]

Sometimes it helps. Listen to classical music or music thats calm at least so your brain funcutions better.

This is what I heard, so don't kill me.

[jaeman]

I only listen to classical music while doing homework.
Any other kind of music besides classical, will cause a distraction and I will never finish that homework.

[Redhdchic]

well when i listen to slow tempo music it usually helps cause then i'm not tempted to get up and dance around....so i usually put my norah jones cd in.....of course with her sometimes i get very, very sleepy.

[sweetdreamsx3]

Yes it does actually..unless I'm studying for a test, then it doesn't work that well. :P

As for homework, yes! :P

[PinkTrash]

Yeah, rock helps math for some reason. When Im doing my english homeworks, I need silence.

[*stephinika*]

yeah usually i do and it usually helps. but there are those occasions when i start singing along somewhat...detaining me from my hw.

[LiNHy POO]

only relaxes me from science homework... with other homework it would make me lose concentration.

[islandkiss]

it distracts me.

[imafreakinazn]

i juss listen to music cuz i like it. it's fun

[Winter]

Music always helps me. With music, I somehow concentrate better on my work. Without music I start thinking about other stuff.

[DivineFox]

Listening to music while doing homework sometimes helps me and sometimes doesn't, it keeps me on the subject but sometimes I daze off

[casssy]

listening to music helps me so much.. even when the tv is on

[Auktane]

nah..music doenst help me...i just stay stuck on the same ole problem when doing anything but focusing on the problem..

[silver-rain]

I only listen to classical music while doing homework.
Any other kind of music besides classical, will cause a distraction and I will never finish that homework.

yeah, i also listen to classical music. its very soothing and allows me to concentrate.

[captivatedheart]

i listen to music when i do my homework, but i'm not sure if it helps me. i suppose it does.

[dani41790]

yea i do everyday. apparently it does help me cuz i dont get ne thing wrong on my hw

[azn_r4pf4n]

Most of the time it does. But sometimes it gets distracting. Like I start singing along. lol

yepp

[*_jelly_bean_*]

i listen to music when i do my homework cause it helps me concentrate.

[mizz_mithy]

when i type a paper music helps me. when i do algebra it distracts me.

[rottencherries]

depends. Sumtimes music helps, but most of the time doesn't. Cuz it usually distracts me... Especially when I'm doing Math

[Note]

when i type a paper music helps me. when i do algebra it distracts me.

yeah. i turn all lazy and do it at school. ALGEBRA SUCKS!

::jerry::

[x emo screamo x]

I just aced a test.
I studied for it
while listening to
a mixed CD
yay!

[mz anita xP]

i listen to music 24/7 hahas =x

[*jooleeah*]

Yeah, I do that. But only if it's with math or something.

[gvoxford]

Definetely helps me no matter what, usually more instrumental stuff (like pink floyd and time-lapse consortium) actually help me work faster I believe... I really don't think I can work with silence. There has to be at least some air vent on or something.

[scandalous_chic]

.

[vivieeeen]

don't laugh.

But i listen to Bach... when doing HW that is.. ONLY WHEN DOING HW

it's fun. u can feel the energy inside u build up

[mysticbreeze]

Music distracts me when I'm doing my homework, unless there aren't a lot of words in the song or something.

[*Weird addiction*]

yes it does but my mum doesnt let me,so i hide to do it,haha

[nyCzxfOx]

yes.. i do.. i listening to piano music or calming music..

but when i do my english homework.. heh.. heh.. ORANGE RANGE

[PinkTrash]

hmm. someitmes I get distracted to sing. x]

[lil_shadow]

yes i listen to music it makes homework more interesting. or...at least i listen to it wen my mom isnt home cuz she thinks im gonna get everything wrong and that im not focusing if i do two things at one time. she yells at me even wen im just on the comp or reading. she expects me to listen to the radio adn stare out into space wen i do it, cant do nothin else wen im listening to the radio because there is no such thing as multitasking heh.

[k0deznskinz]

sometimes yea but i was listening to yingyang twins getl ow then instead of putting the correct answer i put get low lol

[madRooney]

someitmes... but it disturbs my concentration...

[WhiteLotus*]

I find it helpful when typing. I can't concentrate listenting to music doing Algebra.

[smrkangl]

the only song that doesn't make me confused or irritated while doing homework is YOU GOT IT BAD.

[ANG33ZY]

yes it does.

[*lolita kitty*]

no. i get way to distracted. im one of those people who do everything they can to get away form their homework. (oh.. whats it called?)

[RandomHero]

I have to listen to music when i do homework. Actually, i always have to listen to music. I guess I'm addicted.

[smallcity]

if i listen to fast music i work fast
slow music and i work slow
like that

[gelionie]

If it's writing essays or more of the "language stuff", I think listening to music helps; but if I'm doing maths and listening to music, I get a headache and can't concentrate at all. So it depends really.

[Shattered_Hope]

of course. I would listen to music during class too but it's not allowed.

[iheartsimba]

yah it helps with me with algerbra to.
but in like english and stuff, its just distracting.

Shattered_Hope- haha i do anyway. i hide my mp3 player in my jacket and just listen during class hahaaha

[ripxor]

Sometimes it helps. Listen to classical music or music thats calm at least so your brain funcutions better.

This is what I heard, so don't kill me.

We won't kill you. It's true, heard of the Mozart Effect?

[uhoh_its_aria]

I guess it depends on what type of person you are because some people aren't able to multitask, but I can usually listen to anything and do my homework. Music without singing works the best for concentration, for example, classical music. Try "Explosive" by "Bond" if you want. =D

[eli5e]

i do it.. but it doesnt help.. it actually distracts me ...lol

[sheepy]

it helps me so i dunt fall asleep

[mirage]

it depends on what kind of music it is... but it helps for me =)

[teenprincess]

Yea, I listen to the radio. I don't know if it helps me though... it kinda gets hard to concentrate.

[kellyannie]

i HAVE to listen to music wen i do hw or study, if its completely quiet i will get too distracted

[*mona lisa*]

well i jsut listen to whatever music i like, which you know isn't like heavy metal or something so i don't really get distracted. it sort of motivates me.

[DaTru KataLYST]

Yea, it makes me feel more relaxed when I'm doing hw.

[EXPLO5ION]

well it doesnt help me nor does it make me go faster or cncentrate better so...

[Levy2k6]

i listen to music while i do hw and stuff but i heard its bad to do listen to it while ur studying cuz all u remmember during the test was the music u were listening to or something like that.... thats why i never study..

i love music.

[oregoncalistew]

I definitely can't read with music on. It just doesn't work for me. I used to do other things with music on, but not anymore, all that just distracts me, probably because the music I listen to is punk rock. If I were listening to classic music, I'd do hw/read just fine 'cause classical is just not so interesting.

[Counting]

Definitely. Green Day and The Killers rock me on to A's. =]

[njgurl412]

for me music dose not help me while doin my homework ... it kinda distracts me instead.

[joanna_banana]

i can only tolerate classical while working

[smthngcrprategrl...]

yeah it helps me. sure my mom might not believe me but i think it works

[KissMe2408]

yah i had to do a school project on "does music help you with math" and yah it does, lol. but if you're reading a really boring book and ur favorite song is on, then usually im sitting there staring at the blurred words and singing, "1985" by bowling for soup. hehe.

[*bright eyes*]

does it help me? no.
do i listen to it anyway? yes.

[tofumonzter]

mozart&beethoven. hahaha. im sucha nerd.

[xsweetxcandyx]

well, i always have music on..... its like a habit... i need noise

[Jung Ji Hoon fan]

Dendpends.. If im reading I don't want to listen to music but like math problems and such, I listen to music. SP ROCKS!

[*wind&fire*]

yeh .. i use it to help me concentrate... it is like something to ignore

[disbemejen]

sometimes it distracts me because all of a sudden i`m singing along and no longer doing my homework .

[xPartyGrlDx]

I just aced a test.
I studied for it
while listening to
a mixed CD
yay!

CONGRATS! i wish i could do that

[pAtRiCk_sTar]

nah, it distracts me like TV i'm better off with peace and quiet

[krispy_kreme333]

yes i have 2 listen 2 rock music when i do homework or sumthin cuz otherwise my mind wanders and i cant concentrate and music breaks the silence and 4 some reason if i have silence it bugs me so i always have some type of sound in my house.....i no its strange so sue me.

[boozLe]

Woot.

I like to listen to music when I'm doing some homework, but if it actually requires me to use my noggin and think, forget it. All that screaming and thinking combined just might make my head explode.

[angel-roh]

i always do that lol. i cant live without music. music is my theraphy lol

[weirdness]

sometimes...

stops me from going on aim n start talking n stop doing my hw...

[Lyrical Lies]

im not sure if this topic was made before

does anyone listen to music while you are doing homework or anything else you do? i find it easier to listen to music while i do stuff, it helps me concentrate for some reason.

[SillyCourtney]

Same here. I have to have noise going on in the background or else I can't concentrate. Doesn't really make sense.. but it's how I have to do my homework. It doesn't distract me at all.

[april_x]

For me it's the opposite. I can never concentrate with music on, hahah. But it's better than complete silence.

[*mipadi*]

I do, or I watch movies or something of that nature.

[*jooleeah*]

i found a topic on this.

This is what I heard, so don't kill me.

Classical music has been proven to help you work.

[*incoherent*]

i listen to music while i do my homework, but i cant do it while reading.

[Aoiro]

Actually, yes.
It kind of distracts me from time to time, but makes me more calm.
More relieved than stressed.

[*xcaitlinx*]

no..i can't concentrate. i need like complete silence when i do my homework.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

I have to have only the tv on and absolutely no other sounds or else i cant concentrate and get reallyyy angry. Music , no because ill get caught up in the music and not my work.

[sm0kinm0nky]

yep all the time, my dad yells at me because he thiinks i'm not concentrating

[heyyfrankie]

if (and when) i do my homework...yes; i listen to music.

[mzislandpinay]

yeah i listen to music.. mostly its lyk slow jamz.. or normal songs.. something that i love listening too.. it helps me! lol cuz i realize that i go faster.. lol.. but yeah if i read.. no.. haha.. it throws me off into a different thought.. lol

[heyyeh]

music is a must. it helps me keep on task and strangely enough focused

[angelrevelation]

i listen to music when i do my homework. if i dont i get too bored and want to watch tv or something

[*RiC3xBoy*]

Yes, a lot in fact.

[WHOngos144]

no I can't read while listening to music but I can do math while listening to music lol

[xsign_my_heartx]

I used to, but now, its so hard to do homework as it is, and the add of music is harder.

[jennyjenny]

I heard it helps a lot of people with concentrating and stuff.

But it's quite a distraction for me.
Like when I'm trying to read a book, I can't have ANYTHING on. I hate when people talk, too.

A lot of times I get distracted and want to hear the lyrics again, or I hate that particular song so I have to get up to change it.

[OneOfTheseDayz]

yes I do No. 101
