Music

Ahhh, music! What is it about music that makes people want to dance, makes people want to sing out loud, and makes people want to listen to it. Music is an attention getter and so amazing! A study done in Harvard University stated that people tend to listen to any kind of music and most of the time, the lyrics are not so important. In fact, rhythm makes people want to listen to the music and then be attracted to the lyrics. Whenever I listen to a foreign song, I usually tend to look out for the rhythm and then maybe listen in for the lyrics. Music plays a very important role in our lives and it is a beautiful form of art. Wherever you travel to, music is different but each kind of genre of music has many similarities. Their lyrics might be different, or the beat to their music might be foreign but one thing's in common with all of them. They are trying to relate to our everyday emotions. Rock tends to relate to the wild side of our emotion while jazz relates to our calm and serene limit. Tell me fellow classmates; what kind of music relates to you and how does it make you feel? I am very interested to know how music plays such an important role in all of our lives.

Wow! You wrote alot. Well, A LOT of what you saying is true. I like sad song. Don't know why, I like the type of song that is very sad. Usually about break up or someone is leaving. It put me in a calm position because it take my mind of stuf.

Yeah, exactly me too! I have the same feeling when I am listening to sad songs. It's just that you can't really express how you feel.

Yes!! I agree with you Lorita.

Music is super important :] All I have to say is that I personally listen to lots of music it can be in any language for it matters and I just can't get enough. Music is always playing when I'm awake. It has to do with the beat and the rhythm.
