To begin, music exhibits serenity to the most timid of people in times of distraught. In The

In the world today, music has become a big influence on everyone. With the power of music, each person has the ability to accomplish goals even if the music is country or rap. Most people believe that music can change a person’s mood or behavior which is true. Without music people could not control the way they act. Most music has the power to affect a person’s mood and other music can get them out of control. If music did not exist the world would be tedious. Without having music, people would not be able to motivate their moods. With the magic of music all people tend to have clear minds and better spirits. Music has the ability to put a smile on their face and a special song in their hearts. Even though most people feel confident about a special song, this can change their mind about how country music is better than rap music.

Utilizing the groundwork proposed by this essay, we can expand to research other texts in which music seems to function as a form of communication. In doing so, we can study the similarities and differences between the mechanism as a way to arrive at a larger claim about the role of nonverbal communication amongst humans. With this new claim, we can begin to understand to recognize other forms of communication that may not appear as readily accessible and challenging, in order to ensure that we do not neglect the music of emotion another person may be performing in their own

Music is a very powerful expression of emotions that come together as a whole to morph your psychological feelings into a sub-reality vision. Over the many years, history has been able to capture the moments at which music has made an impact on human lives. We can start with Manu Chao the artist that sings about left-wing messages and portrays his concerts as “collective therapy”. Or Juan Gabriel the young man that rose out of poverty to become the world’s most beloved artist/songwriter and whose music carried a resonate flamboyant style. Music is a way of communication that is used in many realms such as entertainment, tradition religion and sporting events. So far this semester, Chic 316 has influenced me to seek a more coherent relationship

The short story “Speech Sounds” is a science fiction story written by Octavia Butler. This essay portrays a central theme that really opened my eyes as well as many others. This theme is to never take your ability to communicate for granted. Communication is a huge part of our culture and civilization. I never truly realized how important communication really was until reading this story. Without it, we cannot express our feelings in a correct manner. Not being able to connect with other individuals results in it being very hard to cooperate with others, causing chaos amongst society. In a short amount of time, the world would turn on each other causing mass amounts of violence. Likewise, this is similar to the story “Speech Sounds.” There are many takeaways one can have after reading this story.

Music is a very good thing for people because it can sometimes calm a person down and make them feel happy. Music is a good way to express one’s feelings in a positive way. Sometimes people use it for good reasons and sometimes bad reasons. I chose to write about the song “Hotline Bling” by Drake for my project. I think this song shows the emotion of sadness and depression.

Communication meets relation needs as well. Even though people need the physical need, they need to feel affection, and have relationships. But without communication, how would it be possible to maintain a relationship? Having that communication builds the relationship. As Floyd states, some scholars believe that people’s need for a relationship is so basic, they hardly get by by without them. These are how communication contributes to physical health and

Many times I have struggled to express myself. A plethora of ideas would be trapped inside my head. Sometimes I would be at a loss of words and couldn’t explain my thoughts verbally or on paper. No matter how much effort I put in, my words wandered off and I could find no method of portraying my emotions. After many failed attempts, I finally found something that could express what I feel and what I want others to feel. It’s music. Performance poet, Sekou Sundiata, is able to clearly express himself in a way where others can understand him by incorporating poetry with music. Both Sundiata and I were searching for a way to share our life experiences in a creative yet understandable format; we accomplished that through music.

It is a message to the audiences about real life. It does not always go the way you want or planned it. That life is a bumpy road and no matter what happens do not lose hope. Do not dwell in the past, do not let the past make you, do not hold onto previous pains, let go of things you cannot change, and keep moving forward because that is how life should be. Communication is powerful because it can be a perfomative action such as Tracy singing her song. Her music is an instrument of power and do things with words like singing. Through her interaction and performance serves to influence in a way any of the other participants. However, there were difficulties and challenges to understanding this case because the lyrics of the song had a lot of underlying meanings. Tracy wrote the song with hidden messages and metaphors for listeners to listen

Communication is the hub of emotional and social intelligence. Authors De Janasz, Dowd and Schneider state communication is defined as, “the act of exchanging thoughts, messages, or information, it facilitates collaboration and cooperation” these transmissions are presented in different mediums such as writing, reading, speaking, listening, or no-verbally (2015, p.153).

Why Don’t We Listen Better? is a book that I initially did not think I would enjoy reading or learn from. Contrarily, I have learned more about myself than I could have ever imagined. To begin, to summarize the book was a bit difficult because there were so many interesting and important aspects. It was not an easy task to decide what to add and what to omit. James Petersen sought out to explore and dissect communication and understanding within different types and levels of relationships. Petersen described the Flat Brain Theory of Emotions as a theory that describes

Although artists do not create certain music to cure diseases or to make scientific or technological discoveries, music is one thing society can never live without. To both artists and their listeners, music provides an indispensible beauty that helps fulfill lives, and connect to nature. Music expresses the human condition in the purest way and affects everyone at a personal level. Plato, a well-known classical Greek philosopher once said, “If you want to measure the spiritual depth of society, make sure to mark its music.” Generally performer collaborate songs to represent the popular pop culture, and social issues, and wish for their society as well as their current era. For instance, controversial issues such as sex, violence, racism

I grew up listening to music everyday not knowing it would save my life in the end... the words that I would listen to would somehow connect with how I was feeling or what I was going through. Music truly soothes the soul and just somehow gives you hope to continue on or to stop something. I think I related my problems to the songs, it would give me comfort knowing I wasn't the only one who was feeling the way I once was. It showed me life was worth living and fighting for. Take Demi Lovato for instant, she was going through major depression and found herself through the music she would produce. A lot of artist are actually like this and only some really come out and tell their true story on how music saved them. It's incredible to know that no matter what you're going through someone, somewhere has gone through it too.

Music is one of the greatest human creations (DeNora, 2000). It plays an integral role in human society worldwide irrelevant of race, gender, age, wealth or well-being (Kemper & Danhauer, 2005). Indeed according to Batt-Rawden (2010), playing different music in diverse situations can introduce listeners to the desired and relevant atmosphere. In most circumstances, music is played to entertain people, but it can also form part of an accompaniment in sad situations. Music is often the fulcrum that influences the listener by creating a unique ambience and atmosphere (Bernatzky, Presh, Anderson, & Panksepp, 2011). Chamorro-Premuzic and Furnham, (2007) adds that music can be a medium to enhance communication,

Communication is the key to maintaining a healthy relationship; just like a flower needs sun and water to stay alive, a relationship needs will and endearment. Lack of will leads to a spiraling world of misunderstanding and pain. Today, the common teenager’s world revolves around Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. Their brain craves to see what others are doing making them lose focus on what they were supposed to do. Today it is all about subtweeting relationship problems or texting complaints to friends. There is no confrontation or talking to the other person to tell them how you feel, leading to the main cause of lack of communication in relationships.
