Music as our Salvation

Music fills my heart with terrible longing. It can be exquisite and brings tranquility and peace to one's soul. It can also induce anger and action. We need music. At least I do.
Which brings me to this challenge. How do you define music? What does it do to you? How do you respond?
It is not a simple matter of listing artists, acts and bands. Consider the source. What draws you to the beats, melodies, progressions and voice?
Do you go through phases? Classic for a week or month, metal for sometime, then switch to bluegrass?
Are there times when you feel manipulated by the composer?
Just asking.
