Well, the truth is that it is not all types of music that one can use when it is time to read or study. The reason is that you need to focus to assimilate what you are reading at that particular time. So, which songs do you rely on when it is time to study?

When it comes to studying as in reading a book or any other kind of contents, I don't play music while at it because in that moment, the music will be a distraction. But if it's any other kind of work, I wouldn't mind playing music.

I wouldn't mind listening to instrumentals of songs on a reduced volume when I'm studying. Playing music that way when I'm reading/studying isn't going pose any kind of distractions.

I'm the opposite to that actually lol. I need my Rock music playing at a decent volume level. Weird how people can be so different in so many ways

You guys amaze me being able to do that because I keep wondering how you don't lose concentration in what you're reading as you're also listening to music at the same time? 😂

It's all of about our individual differences. Yes, it's possible to see one or more people having the same taste and preference in some things but it's never 100% the same at all times.

Yarni's instrumentals have been my favourite that I enjoy listening to all of the time. I don't listen to it when I'm reading by the way but when I want to use music to sleep. It's very effective.

Yanni's ”Nightingale” is my favourite of all his songs. The song was inspired by a bird that comes to sing for him in his window. It's a good song to study with.

Thats actually a great relaxing song @Ja sa bong It kind of reminds me of the Incan pan pipes which I just love.

I also love the song too. Yanni is a legend. I have so many of his songs on a playlist I created on my Spotify account. I also have some of them I listen to on YouTube which are other people's playlist.

I think the perfect music for studying is usually something calm and not too distracting. Soft instrumental, classical, or lo-fi beats work really well..
