Music the universal language....
It can feed your soul, create a mood and set a scene.
It can help you relive a memory, good or bad.
It can uplift and encourage you to dance like a fool in your own living room.
It can make you weep like a little baby when the chords have touched your heart.
You can be moved by gentle lyrics that speak of unrequited love.
Music is everywhere and in everything.
Very often while listening to a piece of music that is soft and gentle I would imagine the scene from a movie that it would accompany. A lover saying goodbye as he goes off to war or a mother holding onto the corpse of her only child. These are the emotions that music can stir up inside us.
Music evokes emotion in us and can intensify a feeling.
I have a very eclectic taste in music, my mood often dictates what I will be listening to at any given time.
My emotional set list:
My happy song: Dancing in the moonlight by Freeloader when I hear this song, I can't help but get up and dance.
My most emotional love song: The Rose by Bette Midler This song has the most beautiful lyrics and whenever I hear it, it make me feel quite tender.
Some say love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
An endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
And you its only seed.
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give,
And the soul afraid of dyin'
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long,
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose.
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
An endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
And you its only seed.
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give,
And the soul afraid of dyin'
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long,
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose.
My thinking music and probably the most beautiful piece of music ever written Air on a G string- Bach
My 'I'm feeling gangster' song: Akon- Locked up
And finally a very well written song with a sad story: Stan- Eminem
