      It’s a very good question. Mainly, because for most part it’s quite a mystery. We don’t really know. But, we need something nice to live for like music, don’t we?

      Humans have evolved music as a form of culture (just like sport, art and films).
      There are many different theories to why we have culture, but no-one has a definite answer.
      I believe culture is important because it keeps us happy, and it also helps to build our team-building skills (e.g. playing football) and it unites us as a human race.
