In Nashville, on street corners, they pipe in music, and the boxes have the phrase "Music is the true barometer of a person's soul."

At first glance, it sounds profound, but now I'm scratching my head. Does anyone know what this means?

Does it mean what a person listens to indicates what mood he is in?
Or does it mean that people who don't listen to music don't have a soul?
Or does it mean that certain types of music has more soul than others, and the type you respond to indicates how developed your soul is?
Or does it mean that there are many ways to determine a person's soul, but music is the only "true" measurement?

Maybe some of you can help me out here. I really am confused.

Well I've helped by making a poll out of your options! Members can chose more than one and can change their vote.

You can vote first! :D

Meaning barometric pressure is greater in some seasons than others? That's true in Tennessee. I can watch my cat and know when a bad storm is coming, which I guess makes weather the true barometer of my cat's soul.

Hmm, so my soul can be measured by music. Is that in feet or centimeters? I'm still confused.
