....when the rockets came to life...and carried you away..into the alligator sky...
These are lyrics from Owl City's latest single "Alligator Sky". The music now a days is really light-hearted and care-free, fun or mischievous. Few people still sing about feelings and emotions and the hard times we are facing. I don't know about anyone else but I appreciate it. In this life, today's life, no one really wants to hear about how much turmoil we are in. We already hear it from our friends, managers, teachers, pastors, political leaders, etc. and honestly it puts a weight on us. We really don't want to hear much more of it.
Music for me, and for a lot of other people, is a method of escape. It evokes emotions where there was none previously. It soothes harsh wounds, It comforts and it allows you to express your feelings. Music Brings us together and it tears us apart.
Music creates a new world for me.
Some people can't understand how other people react to random beats with no clear rhythm. All I have to say to them is sit and listen.
Not sure why Music does this though. I heard one of my friends reason that Lucifer was really good at music as an angel and uses it to this day to evoke the emotions he wants in people. Maybe that's a good reason why the majority of music is lead by hate, sex, carefree-ness and other emotions that humans probably shouldn't live by. Whatever the case is I enjoy music and I appreciate it. Let me hear from you. What's your favourite kind of music and why???
