Music And Its Influence On Us

By Adriana Noton

Music can bring a nation together. It can tear it apart. It can move the people to dance. It can lead them to war. It has been passed on from one generation to another. It has survived the change of genres and survived the weather. It lives on even if its artist is gone. It is a part of history. It makes one cry. It makes one sigh. It makes one crazy but it cannot lie. A certain song can tell so much. Be careful not to hum one during lunch.

It can be festive. It can be sad. It can inspire and it can make others mad. It depicts an emotion in a given day. It reflects a certain personality, capability and frustration in the most subtle way. There is no need to party if the song is not of bliss. No matter how conceal it, surely no one can miss. Usually we hum a tune endlessly throughout the day making it the last song syndrome and gives one away in the office.

Parents tends to badly pushed the kids to piano lessons during the younger year. Although drum lessons are better, learning it is a must or suffer with a stick. Growing up led to a different story. Guitar lessons became for free. However music lessons were not enough to impress that girl in Jamboree. But hey that is life, right? No one can please everybody.

Sing from the heart and not from the head. Sing from the soul and do not fret. Do not let fear cease the moment. Let its excitement thrill both body and soul. Life itself is hard enough to face, so why sulk? Choose a better sound and start to dance. It would be much to start a new romance.

Hum a tune. Empathize with lyrics. Appreciate the singer but do not be a worry worth if the neighbor thinks it is awful. Take up lessons if you want. Start young. Trigger that interest and discipline. Encourage the ability to learn. Be a child and pursue that dreams.

Finding such talent can be an asset. The crowd may not go crazy about it but who cares? One can always attend a lesson and go on from there. Strumming the guitar can be a start. However it takes more than plucking strings to consider it as an art. Know the basics before moving an extra notch. Practice, practice, practice and practice some more.

No one learns to bike without a fall. Learning an instrument without mistakes is impossible. At first the neighbors would have to bear with noise. It may ruin their eardrums in the few months. But it would get better after months of practice as long listening is applies.

Learn to listen. This is the key of creating good melody even if it's from a used pianos. Accepting criticism and facing the challenge to exceed limits will lead you in attaining a spot in the music scene. Deleting inhibitions can further reach this concept. However, do be considerate. Do not let the neighbor suffer the injustice of staying up late when you practice though. Do find a spot and practice till you get a desirable result.
