Has anyone ever given much thought as to why songs get stuck in our heads from time to time?  For me personally it is usually just a line or two and not neccessarily even the chorus.  Perhaps it is a form of deja vu or something.  I'd love to see what other people think about this. ... View more

I hope no one takes this the wrong way but I am curious.  I don't really know anyone that is deaf or I would just ask them.  Is there a way that deaf people can enjoy music?  I realize that, at first glance that may seem like a silly question but I couldn't be more serious.  I know that when I have to wear hearing protection at work, after several hours I can start to sense vibrations from all sorts of things that I normally wouldn't.  Perhaps it is similar in that music can be felt instead of heard? ...

I think that it would be interesting and would help engage listeners, while maybe even learning people something also, if every state contributed a tourism advertisement like Arkansas has.  I am sure that it is not as simple as it may seem on the surface but at the same time, I wouldn't think that it would be exceedingly complicated either.  I would hope that every state already had a short tourism-based ad recorded.   As far as the funding for it goes, that is not my department, but I will say that music probably helps people be healthier and happier so it wouldn't necessary be a waste of tax dollars especially if the ad does what it is supposed to do.   At bare minimum I think that it would be more effective if there were multiple different theme-based ads instead of the same one or two all the time. I hope that this makes some sense and doesn't step on any toes either.  If not sorry for the toe stepping and I don't have much for the not making sense bit, except I will try better next time.   Good day everyone!
