Becker said that in his research he found that in some religious rituals in Africa, people who were in a trance and singing and dancing would be shocked back into reality when they were no longer in a trance. These same experiments were done with hippies in America. In both cases, the results showed that when you get people out of their normal state of being, the influence of drugs and other drugs or alcohol can be diminished.
In other words, music can have a strong influence on human behavior.
