I definitely listen to music while reading and writing. Sometimes it can't be very loud because I have to concentrate but if I get into it it doesn't matter because I'm so consumed by what I'm writing or reading that I forget it's there. I like it because I think that music is very important but so is reading, and writing is something that I absolutely love to do so it helps me tie things together.

The macarena can do wonders if you're really focused and you don't know any spanish. :) It seriously helped me w/ nano once. Plus I was using write or die, so I had extra motivation to type fast.

Which actually reminds me... at my cousin's wedding this summer, her husband made the playlist, and there was all sorts of music... including french rap.

Wow, looks like I didn't used to listen to music while I write. Now I do it all the time. And I have a lot more music. :D haha

Sometimes music is just distracting, but some songs inspire me. I don't know, it depends on my mood.

Same here. Sometimes, I can push the music to the back of my mind and it helps my writing flow. But sometimes it's just too much and I can't think with it. :P

All the time, but it has to fit the topic and can't be so loud i can't think.

I like my music louddd. Except some days I just can't get in the flow of it and it messes me up … Also, nothing too catchy or I start singing along. XD

I can't write with no noise. I need music or even a random sound. It usually gets my creative juices following.

[Kritika]

I just need background noise to do my homework sometimes, and even to write my stories. If I listen to music it's usually instrumental because I can't really work if I hear the words.

[B.R]

I can listen to just about anything while writing, but mostly The Outsiders. They get me in the writing zone.

[Veronica, What the neck!?]

If I'm really focused on writing, absolute silence works the best for me. If I get really in to it, I don't even notice anymore because I'm so absorbed. If there are other people around, I find that listening to screamo (with headphones, of course) helps me to concentrate.

I do that all the time. Mostly Nancy Drew soundtracks and Thor 2: The Dark World soundtracks On YouTube.
