How do I get the "feel" of music"?

This is in answer to a question posted on http://music.stackexchange.com/questions/50596/how-to-feel-the-music/50614#50614 How do I get the "feel" of music"? If you have ever studied poetry, you learned about meter and rhyme. You may have also learned about cadence. These things create rhythm. Music is poetry. The lyrics can help create the mood and emotion. The beat (tempo and rhythm) also constitute part of the "feel" of music. The timbre (pronounced "tamber") of the instruments and voices likewise contribute. Study these things and note the differences between songs. Also, dancing (or imagining yourself dancing) to the music will help you get the "feel" of it.
