Recently, some survey result shows that those kids are more clever and
have better memory whose mother listened to Mozart's music when they were
pregnant than those whose mother don't.  Compare CM to pop music, just like
fastfood and real French/Chinese cuisine.  Pop music is closer to human
nature so it more often stimulates people but CM calms your soul down and
make you find or realize the real beauty and significance of life.  That
is the reason why CM is ever-lastingly beloved by human beings, especially
when they are old and have more and deeper feeling about life.  People have
different taste of different CM works as they have various feeling and
taste towards beauty and life.
