I guess its more prevelant than I thought, or at least it used to be. Its very confusing to me how people could fall for that. How little do you have to know about music to think a specific type of it will literally increase your intelligence.

    I don't think it's completely ridiculous on its face. Obviously we have some connection to music (as in, we like rhythms, we like making specific sounds with instruments or our voices, we seem to get into the beat etc.), so why shouldn't it be possible for music known for its complexity to have an effect on us?

    It seems it doesn't, but I don't think it's something where you know so "little" about music if you consider it a possibility.
