It depends on how loud your playing your music.

If you have it at maximum volume, you are probably going to loose your hearing at an earlier age than a person whom listened to music that is medium-high volume. Try not to play music too loud.

Absolute worst case scenario is that you can become deaf. It depends on both the volume and frequency (occurrence, not Hz) in which you are exposed to the music.

Why do you sometimes hear voices talking to you when you are listening to loud music?

If you mean that your ears ring (tinnitus) after listening to loud music, you may be dangerously close to permanently damaging your hearing, or you may already be beyond that point. Your hearing CAN be damaged, and it CAN be damaged permanently. Being young does NOT mean that your hearing organs will ALWAYS spring back. One danger for young people who love loud music is that as hearing begins to decline, there is a need for louder music which of course will speed the damage.If you are talking about ringing in the ears, please find a nearby hearing clinic (I believe that Beltone clinics do hearing assessments without charge) and get tested. Whether your hearing is normal, damaged or even superior, take the ringing as a sign that you must start protecting your hearing now in order to avoid living the rest of your life with hearing impairments. If your hearing happens to be normal or superior and you take this as a sign that you can abuse your hearing as much as you like, then I would like to talk with you in ten years-- assuming, that is, that you can still hear in ten years.Do you actually physically hear the music faintly, or is it more like hearing some catchy tune and then you 'can't get it out of your head' for the rest of the day? If you have the experience of physically hearing the music faintly, it could still be related to a hearing problem. After all, you did specify that this happens to you after listening to loud music, not just any music. I am not a physician or hearing specialist, but faintly hearing sounds after listening to loud music may still be related to overstimulation of the hearing mechanisms in the ear.
