Multiple studies have shown that listening to music alters our perception of painful stimuli and strengthens feelings of control. People are able to tolerate pain for longer periods of time when listening to music, and will even rate the severity of the sensation as lower, suggesting that something so simple as a melody has a direct affect on our neural pathways. From Scientific American. Thanks JP but we already gots the good drug.

Yet when I hear Rap "music" the pain starts immediately and I can't tolerate it at all.
