London, Oct 22 (IANS Some music artistes have a more positive impact on the mood and wellbeing of young people than others, with American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift coming out on top (32 per cent) as having the most positive effects, closely followed by the British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran (28 per cent), new research has highlighted.
The research conducted by The O2 Arena also showed that over 80 per cent of young people agree that music (88 per cent) and live events (83 per cent) have a positive impact on their mood and wellbeing.
