Music Makes The Rockin' World Go 'Round

If I had to choose one thing in my life that was important to me it would be music.



I love music but I wouldn't go as far as saying I'm musically obsessed or a music expert, not by a long shot. I don't know every band that ever existed. I don't pretend to know every Beatles song ever written. I'm useless at remembering who sang what tune and which band wrote such a song. What I do know is that I love the feeling that music gives me. The sudden urge to just get up and dance or to sing along as loud as I can, to block everything else out, is what makes music so amazing.



I admire people who are naturally musically talented. If I stumbled across a magic genie on the side of the road and he presented me with one wish, I'd wish to be able to sing, to be able to stand up in front of a group of people, open my mouth, sing and for them to just think "Wow". It's a dream that I can honestly believe will stay a dream.

I'd take my hat off to anyone who can play any type of musical instrument. I think it's one of the most admirable skills a person can have in life. I'm currently learning to play guitar. I have to admit that I love it, but have no shame in confessing that it's difficult. I think my main problem is the lack of time that I posses. I have no time to practice, and as they say, practice makes perfect, and I am nowhere close to perfect.

To be able to write songs is too a skill that I would envy. I've tried on a few occasions and never succeeded in producing anything remotely capable of having enough meaning to it make it as a song.


I think many would agree with me that music is an extremely important part of life. It acts as an output to feelings, emotions and just makes people smile.
