The actual sound of music itself, without lyrics, has only relative meaning. A 1920's big-band piece could evoke thoughts of young romance for the elderly, but would not bring the same emotions for a teenager. The teen could respond positively to Usher, but the middle-aged mom may just be annoyed.
Music can only convey the ideas you've already associated with a particular style or song. And that may be very different for different people.
Again--I'm only talking about music--not the lyrics. Obviously, words convey thoughts.

I believe it depends very much on the song. Certain songs are very light and airy and have little meaning, other than a lovely tune and a beat that's easy to dance to. But many songs have very deep meanings, that we often miss, because we are not in the composer's place, and we did not write the lyrics.
It is most definitally possible to convey ideas through music. Spanish salsa dancing often expresses rich, passion while German music shows hefty merriment.
Lyrics also give the piece meaning. They add a poetic theme to the song that perhaps the tune and beat can not convey alone.
I am a musician. I have played the violin for four years, and have had a general exposure to music since I was a young child. When you play an instrument with other students five days a week, you really realize the depth to music.
Hope that helps!

Music plays a central role in much of our everyday life, and would be sorely missed if it didn't exist. An easy way of finding this out it to imagine watching an action/adventure (such as Star Wars) with out the music. They would loose a tremendous amount of their appeal to the imagination. So yes ideas are conveyed through music.

What? Are you kidding? I could name so many songs that mean so much. Yes, you can convey ideas through music. You can learn anything through music. I learned the preamble to the constitution because of music added to it. Otherwise I would never have learned it. I love music. I love the poetry.

of course! have you noticed how when two different musicians preform the same piece of music it can sound really different? thats because they understand the music in a different way/interpret it differently to convey the emotions/ideas they feel the composer is trying to express

i does not flow into track. whether you're sturdy, track colleges are VERY aggressive and getting a job is like in performing: it truly is totally confusing! you ought to get fortunate!

I think music can convey emotions, which can then be transmuted into thoughts/ideas.
