When you're on a long commute without a carpool buddy, the best thing to keep you company is your favorite album. When you didn't have time to make a pot of coffee, the invigorating beats of a song can lift you up, and make you think, "I am ready for the day. Bring it on!"

The potent effect of music is no secret, but you probably didn't know just how profound it really is. Audio psychologist, Priyanka Shekar explains.

Music affects the chemistry of the brain on a fundamental level. A song with a strong beat makes our brainwaves want to synch up with it, and this can have a real impact on our energy level.

High-energy music makes our brainwaves, as well as heart and respiratory rate, speed up.

Songs we like can also stimulate the brain to release serotonin, a mood-improving brain chemical.

In other words, music really can change the way you think, from your emotional state, energy level, memory recall, and more ways we don't even have time to get into in one blog post.

That's why we are so impressed with the level of detail and precision of the new Revel sound system available on the Lincoln MXK. Perfect speaker mix, minimal diffraction, compressed file-restoring software, and custom listening modes makes the Lincoln MKX the ideal sound room for soaking up those brain-changing tunes.
