But yes. it would be a life without release, joy, inspiration and generally all things good in the world today. It transcends races, its timeless, it’s always evolving and its vibration. Everyone likes music or noise in some form or another. Hell, if can whistle you’ve got your own jukebox. But joking aside I can’t see my life without it.
I have quite a varied taste in my musical affairs. To me its sitting in a room, my headphones on, lights out listening and being moved by the sounds I hear. I can be doing the dishes but suddenly I’m live and in front of an audience singing Rebel Yell or at Wembley with Queen, stood next to Freddy belting hit after hit. It transports you to wherever you want to go in the universe.
For this reason, the kids have had premium Spotify accounts since they were 5, adding music to it, creating play lists and last FM accounts. We even altered bedtime rules based on it. Always allowed them access to it for an hour after their bedtime if they wanted to listen to something and sleep. That they didn’t have to hide behind swearing in songs because that would ruin the effect or issue being sang about. With Ben being 11 and Suzi 13, they have quite a few good playlists that we share amongst ourselves. Each carving their own little way into the different genres.
I have it on. Constantly. Not just for mental health but it massively effects that as well. It has the power to lift you out of the crap you are trapped in and dump you inside this cozy little snug of warmth and understanding.
