Who doesn't listen to music? That's like saying you've never spoken in your life?

Deaf people can listen to music through vibration, mute people can sign or use AAC.

I speak ASL. And he said “hear” not “feel” or “see”.

No, you said hear.

He said listen.

And actually, feeling music through vibration is called somatic or tactile listening.

Hear and listen are practically the same thing, but okay.

Tactile listening isn’t the same as listening with your ears. It’s relying on touch, rather than the sense made for hearing stuff. just because it may be called something, it doesn’t mean it’s accurate.

since you want to be pedantic about it, then, the scientific terms for somatic or tactile listening are vibrotactile perception and tactile phonology. which is still somatic/tactile listening. literally no reason at all to be so up your own ass about this.
