In reply to the discussion: Do you ever hear music when no music is playing? [View all]dgauss
(1,489 posts)10. I've had that experience. I lived in one place where it would happen regularly
when I was trying to get to sleep at night. I ended up figuring it was some faint noise generated from the pipes in the basement or some other mechanical sound. It was very faint and just below the threshold of being loud enough to make sense of. It seemed like my brain was trying to make sense of it and ended up interpreting it as music. Kind of drove me nuts.

Absolutely! Different types of music, and what sounds like radio broadcast voices, too.

On occasion in the long stretch of the subway train underground going express the random noise I'd almost hear music

Yep. I figure it's just my brain keeping busy. Parents were musicians, there was ALWAYS music in the house

No. But I can groove to the faintest furthest away tune that nobody else hears.
