What music do you avoid and worry about popping up again?
What music do you think is a cultural or collective shadow you’re aware of?
Can you show us on this doll where the music touched you?

Careful, that can be fatal
I am confusion. (What do you mean?)
For me, early 2000s contemporary Christian music.
I wasn’t allowed to listen to secular music. So I made a lot of emotional connections to contemporary Christian music. Which is pretty cringe in retrospect. Whenever I’m reminded of it, I have a pretty conflicted set of emotions about it.
I usually only listen to that music that I listened to in my early teens when I feel like wallowing in self pity. But I can’t deny that I feel extremely nostalgic about it. It makes me wish I would have made those same emotional connections to music that wasn’t associated with really disturbing fundamentalist Christian ideologies and propaganda.
Oh hey, I was in a similar boat. I was such a big fan of Skillet that I got them to sign a skillet at one of those Christian music festivals. I listened to them again recently, those lyrics are definitely propaganda.
I had a friend that was in that scene. He played this stuff in his car all the time. Wasn’t terrible music, if I recall, but I never listened to it when I wasn’t bumming rides.
which is pretty cringe
Ehhh you had to adapt to what you had access to. I wouldn’t judge you for that, no way.
Love songs in Spanish, especially from Arjona, Enrique Iglesias or Luis Miguel but not limited to those.
Also christmas songs, very annoying
A lot of rap is lower vibrational. Talking about material gains and sexualizing. There’s some good stuff out there though.
A music lover since the day I was born … and I’ve heard it all … I’ve never heard any ‘dark music’ per se. If by music you mean music with lyrics, that’s different.
There’s no such thing as a ‘musical shadow’. Jung’s ‘Shadow’ consists of psychological parts (‘garbage pit’) you’re not aware of because you’re hiding them from consciousness (for various reasons). What ‘you consider’ isn’t a part of it.
Niles Crane?
Anything that’s written primarily for commercial purposes?
(I don’t know much about Jungian philosophy)
