The Love Of Music : My Love For Music

Have you ever felt like something was missing? For a party, wedding or an anniversary? Something to listen to or play? If you have, then you were missing music. Music is something that everybody needs. It doesn't matter whatever mood you're in because there's always a category for it. Music makes you feel good about yourself no matter whatever reason you're listening to it for. I believe that music is a way to express yourself not a reason to waste time in.

I spent the first ten years of my life, roughly, homeschooled and constantly around both my parents. During this time, I had no choice but to listen to whatever music they enjoyed playing drying the day, whether it was Seal in the car or Melissa Etheridge on the home stereo. Once I had struck my preteens, and with the help of my then high-school aged sisters, I was introduced to punk rock and hard rock genres of music. This became a new addiction for me; it felt rebellious, cool, in style and new. Eventually, it felt very repetitive and it seemed as if everyone was trying to emulate the same sound. So, after a short time, I began searching for music on my own. I bought Coldplay and Vampire Weekend albums, and was on the lookout for music with a more sophisticated feeling than what I had been listening to previously. I was then hopelessly addicted to music that I was discovering, and was proud to say I found my own style of music to listen to. After I received Coldplay’s album, “A Rush of Blood to the Head” as a Christmas gift, I would play it daily to

This is a huge component for me. Music allows me to express myself. When I want to get pumped up and have lots of energy during my workout I’ll turn on rock and roll music real loud to get that extra burst of energy. I like to listen to music when I am down on myself. When I want to forget about all the stress in life and just have a great time I turn to music. Music can put me in a way better mood after a terrible day or a long day at school or work. People like music to remind them of events , especially the happiest times in life. Music can take you back to a time in your life and reminds you that everything comes to an end. Music has showed me that there are stages in your life and I can’t dread on the past, I just keep going and living life to the

Music is my life. I live, eat, sleep and breathe music. It's what keeps me alive, it's the blood pumping through my veins, it's the one thing I can relate to when times are too tough to handle. There is one particular rock group that changed my life completely, and I am fully prepared to explain why. They are called Green Day, the single most inspirationally powerful band that I have ever looked up to. I admire them for several reasons, the main one being that no matter how much each of them have been through, they still followed their dreams of becoming music superstars.

Growing up, I was always surrounded with music, whether it be on the record at home, the IPod, live music, or the built

As a teenager in their high school years, there is a definite shift in my music taste from elementary and middle school to where I am today. Looking back, I listened to classical music as a snob, thinking “music isn’t as good as it used to be”, and assuming that I am the best just because I exclusively listened to what I thought was “refined.” Of course, tastes change. As I transitioned to high school I was curious about rock. One of the first bands I got into was The Strokes, especially their debut album, “Is This It”.

In order to facilitate the exhausting of young girls pockets it is crucial to obtain the approval of their protective parents. In the Beatles anthology, John Lennon recalls their manager Peter Epstein advising them to stop swearing and smoking on stage and to ditch the casual attire in favor of bowlcuts and matching suits. Such tactic is used to make them more relatable and to please the demands of the different age demographics in their audiences during the conservative 60's. To ensure such, it is important to construct profiles that will keep the public aspect of their careers impeccably organized. In the Beatles, “Paul was the cute one, George was the quiet one, Ringo was the funny one and John was the smart one.” Earlier this year, some of Syco’s (One Direction’s record management) documents were leaked in which it is evident that they, like the Beatles, had a constructed marketed image. According to the document, Harry Styles was the “adorably slow” one , Louis Tomlinson was the “funny” one, Liam Payne was the “caring” one, Niall Horan was the “cute” one and Zayn Malik was the “player”one. . Such profile constructs are vital in establishing a connection between the band and the fanbase that creates the illusion that the fans know their idols beyond the boundaries erected by

When I was younger I listened to many different types of music. My sister listened to the newest pop songs at the time. My brother listened

This is the main draw to music, especially for young people who need to work through these emotional difficulties related to growing up. Adding up to a substantial amount of hours, listening to music is the perfect medium to communicate to the masses, especially to those who are amidst a self-discovery.

The one thing about music though that really captures my interest is the fact that it can provoke and produce so many emotions in someone. As someone who has a rather hard time expressing themselves, music was something I could turn to in order to understand and better

“I walk around with headphones in A hoodie on,I'm trying to blend in With all the other useless kids That's how I've always been” Even when i was in the womb i rocked out to the metal kings, Rob Zombie, Metallica, Slayer, anything you could think of. Now 15 years later my music is my life quite literally, its is the only thing that keeps me grounded, reduce stress and help me focus in school. It would be hard to guess that Twenty Øne Pilots, Troye Sivan, Neck Deep, State Champs and so many more artist help me do better in school.

I live and breathe music. It is the reason I awake each morning; it is the reason I go to school every day, and it is what I spend all of my free time doing. This has been the case since I was in seventh grade. I have grown up with music-loving parents who had introduced me to music (both listening and playing) at a young age. My father would have me listening to Mozart, Billie Holiday, and Neil Diamond when I was just an infant. He also arranged for me to play ‘Mary Had A Little Lamb’ on the largest pipe organ in Nevada when I was four years old. The pipe organ was the first instrument I ever played if you don't include the pots and pans drum set from our kitchen.

I have never met a person who stated they didn't enjoy music. Even the deaf can feel the beat and vibrations through hands and feet, if it's loud enough they might even feel it in their chest, acting as a secondary heart beating like a drum. It's fascinating, there's always some kind of connection to sound. Even when you wear a t-shirt showing an artist you like and a stranger will compliment you, or even start a conversation because you both have similar taste. It gives you something to talk about, it helps shy kids in the back of classrooms make friends, it makes connections, and can bring people together like moths to a flame. Music can make memories, it ties itself to a moment in time and replays that memory whenever it come on. A random reminder, whether it be a positive memory or negative one, it'll snap you back in time, giving you whiplash of emotion or

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.

People say that music has the ability to heal a person mentally and spiritually. But to me, music is much more than just healing. It is a way for me to escape this world called reality and enter a world with in my imagination through the different beats, harmony, and chorus. Only when listening to music, I can truly feel all my emotions with each song having the power to make me remember, from painful to happy memories. As I grew up to be the person I am today, my music journey also grows with me. Looking back at it now, I would never want to change a single thing.
