We all have our preferences as to what sounds and tones, when combined, constitute music.  Some people consider rap/hip-hop to be more poetic than musical, and some people consider heavy metal music to be more random noise than musical.  These are possibly the two extremes, with everything from jazz to orchestral to church hymns in between, but as JeanJacques stated, it is in the eye (or ear, in this case) of the beholder.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 21:20, 10 November 2008 (EST)

Music is a composition of sounds that effect the emotions in a heart or thoughts in a mind. --Ṣ₮ёVeN 10:06, 15 October 2008 (EDT)

Music, like beauty, art, truth (small t, not capital T), is in the eye of the beholder. I believe that the "sounds" must be intentionally generated by humans (as opposed to birds or whales).--JeanJacques 10:43, 10 November 2008 (EST)
