Recently I thought of how much fun I used to have posting blogs and everything. Suddenly I realized that "Hey, I wonder if my old blog is still up".
To my surprise it was, thus here I am. Yay!
To my left you will find a list of music: if you know these bands and love them as much as I do, then you totally rock. But it goes beyond just the lyrics, you have to really connect to them. I mean, people usually just say stuff such as: "Oh yeah, that band rocks", after only having heard one of their songs on Much Music or something. You especially have to listen to all the songs of the album in album order to actually understand the whole message portrayed through the album. One song does not depict the awesomeness of a band, but rather the message within the whole of the album, and the words it speaks to you makes you fall in love with that band. Because you have a new found meaning that they have influenced upon you, you can ultimately see a clearer understandment to the fundamentals of your life. This is really the reason for which music is so popular. Music is a way to demonstrate feelings that could not actually be said in normal conversation. Because normal conversation is always interrupted. However, in a song, you listen to the whole song, when the song finishes, you pause....think about it....and then it either: bam, hits you like a flying rock on your head and you have an epiphany or it says nothing to you at all. When it does unlock a certain door in your personal being, you now feel more fulfilment in your life. In sum, music is such a beautiful aspect of life, and it is wonderful how much influence it does have in someones life.
I myself knock myself on the head thousands of time when I forget to recharge my ipod and I have to go somewhere on foot or the bus and I have no music with me. I feel so naked, empty without it. Lyrics always bring up memories, which strikes thought. I'm not saying that I cannot or do not want to think without music, however more so that I feel alone without it.
Music is a wonderful friend that you can have: depending on your mood you can find any song that peeks your fancy. You can listen to the words, the advice, the knowledge that you *need* at that point in your life. And it works, that's the best part about it all. Music sooths the soul, music comforts the hurt, energizes the happy, pardons the mistaken, rewards the merit.
Music speaks. Listen to it.
