Music


What is music to you?
Notes?
Lyrics?
Rhythm?
Beat?

All of the Above?
      To me, music has always been so much more then scribbles and symbols written on a piece of paper. Music is actually very different then poems; I like to think that the reason some poems are made into song lyrics is because they were never meant for paper. Like the paper physically couldn't handle the words written down so they were made into something more. Something the whole world gets to share, gets to relate too. 
       It's funny how something you can't touch, can touch you in so many ways. Something you can't see can send you visions. And isn't it odd how a three minute song can make us think for hours, sometimes even days at a time. 
      Music is the trunk of an ongoing tree. A tree with large limbs that  lead to tons of different variations, the "branches" of that style. With the main limb of Pop music comes the branches of Adult Contemporary, Brit-pop, Bubblegum Pop, Chamber, Pop Dance Pop, Dream Pop, Electro Pop, Orchestral Pop, Pop/Rock, Power Pop, Soft Rock, Synthpop,  and Teen Pop. With the limb of rock comes, Acid Rock, Adult-Oriented Rock, Afro Punk, Adult Alternative, Alternative Rock , American Trad Rock, Anatolian Rock, Arena Rock, Art Rock, Blues-Rock, British Invasion, Death Metal / Black Metal, Glam Rock, Gothic Metal, Hair Meta, Hard Rock, Metal, Noise Rock, Jam Bands, Post, Punk, Prog-Rock/Art Rock, Psychedelic, Rock & Roll, Rockabilly, Roots Rock, Singer/Songwriter, Southern Rock, Surf, Tex-Mex and Time Lord Rock. And the limbs along with their branches continue into the infinite music tree.
        Music has the power to make someone cry, smile, laugh, feel better and dance. People use music to heal, to advertise, to bring people together, and to express. Music is magic. The artist's are the magicians.
        It doesn't matter if you look at music like the impossible poems, or the touching untouchable, the ongoing tree, or magic; Music will forever be a part of everyone's soul. Will always be a part of everyone; whether it's their thumb or their backbone it's the one thing we have in common. The one thing that keeps our separate worlds close to our one big one. Music.
