Starting to think that music is having a more powerful effect that it has any right to.

For the past few months, I've been listening to Hikaru Utada's 2021 version of their 2007 song Beautiful World.

Beautiful World (Da Capo Version) was created as a complimentary of One Last Kiss, and it's the first rendition of the track that I've listened to. The song represents inner pleadings for interpersonal closeness.

I've been trying to understand why for a while now, and all I can come up with is that the feeling of loss I experience during the closing, is nearly the same of losing a person that you've spent a great deal of time building a relationship with. This can be any close friend, coworker, or a partner, for example. The passion for future and the precedent you've created turned into nothing and silenced, is exactly what I experience precisely at the 5:25 mark, where Utada's voice disappears leaving only the backing, and the instrumentation moving the song along.

It makes me feel helpless. This isn't necessarily related to the lyrics either. Why does music have this effect on me?
