Hear the Beat, Beat of the Music

Forget the eyes being the window to the soul - it seems you may have better luck sifting through a person's CD collection. Researchers questioned 3,500 people and confirmed musical tastes and personality traits are linked.

People who prefer blues, jazz, classical and folk music seem to be intelligent, tolerant and politically liberal, the researchers reported. Meanwhile, country and religious fans tend to be cheerful and conventional, while heavy metal lovers lean towards being physically active, curious risk-takers. As for rap/hip-hop and dance music fans, they are outgoing, agreeable people who generally eschew conservative ideals.

Wow! Never thought the type of music you listened to can be linked to your personality too. This is really interesting. Well, that is why i put it here actually so you, my readers will know too.
