music What does it mean for a music to have "depth"?

[Kross]

I have heard some people say they only listen to music that has depth. Others would say that a particular song has or lacks depth. What does the concept of music having depth mean to you? Which song typically has depths for you? Is it when a song has a social message that it can be said t have depth?

 

[Fidelia1]

When music has depths, it simply implies that the song has a deep message that it teaches people or causes them to reflect. Music with depths are always music that have social consciousness.

 

[MamaFrankie]

Exactly, Fidelia. It is music with meaning, rather than shallow pop stuff or mindless boring dance rubbish. 'The Living Years' by Mike and the Mechanics is a prime example of a song with depth.

For me a song that has profound lyrics (something that makes you ponder, reflect, think), vocal that connects deep inside you, and the music that makes you joyous is the music that has depth.
