We all listen music, but music in general was observed from a negative standpoint in both Christian and Muslim Empires.
It was considered that music attracts devils, while spiritual and religious chants turns them off.
Spiritual Religious Chants are in fact definablle as Music. Anyway, music has been very much acceptable in the Christian Realms. Take for example the Troubadors (in the 11th, 12th and 13th Centuries). What're you smoking today?
