The hidden connotations of music in Media

This post is for both AS and A2 as it could apply to both the film fiction and New Media case studies. I found this article as I was trawling through the TV section of The Guardian website http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-radio/2011/sep/28/tv-music-top-10-cliches . It got me thinking about the subtle (or blindly obvious) usages of music in Media, especially broadcast Media

So, my question to you is: why is music so important to broadcast Media at all? Also, why are certain tracks played an replayed to death, a la the 'Fix You' montages on the X-Factor?

I'd like you to blog your views on this, or even just tweet a response.
