Men tend to stick to music they love in their teens, whilst women constantly adapt tastes, suggests a new study🎵

Findings show the deepest musical attachments hit men aged 16, but women 19; and this is why older songs sink their claws in deep for men🎸

When did humans first begin to sing, and why?

I had a crack at answering this question as part of @newscientist.com's LastWord series. www.newscientist.com/lastword/mg2...

#musicscience @coe-mmbb.bsky.social
Is it known when humans or our ancestors first started to sing?
As songs don't fossilise, this is a difficult task, point out our readers – but this doesn't stop them having a go

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests.

So, best we share all the footage we can here!

This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu.
