Music is something everybody likes. There are loads of genres in music, starting from the mainstream to the unheard; classical, hip-hop, pop, metal, indie and others. People usually listen to music when they are studying, working out or simply relaxing. We often hear music whenever we go to the mall, indoor or even outdoor events; music is always blaring from the speakers around. There's live music in bars, restaurants, and sometimes even in the middle of a mall, which shows that the majority of people enjoy listening to music even while eating.
There are 3 reasons why music is one of the most important things in life:
1. Music is a way of expression Music is often used as an expression by people in a lot of different forms. Music gives you an opportunity to express yourself without using words of your own instead to the emotions of a complex in a song; in doing this, you will be able to release all the feelings that you have had for a series of time and feel the emotion being played in the music. Sometimes, it helps you to understand and face the life that you are living in right now. Many people today hide who they are on the inside to try to fit in with everyone else because some people are afraid that they might get rejected by those around them; they hide in crowds until they truly can be alone on their own and realize that they don’t always have to try to fit in with the general society of today. Music is important to loads of people because most of the time, it is how they express themselves and be who they truly are in the inside.
2. A Way of Communicating
Music also helps people communicate how they feel on the inside when they just can’t find the word to say it. Music is a powerful means of communication. Sometimes in our lives, it is difficult to say how we feel to other people, but with music, we find the words that are missing and all the messages that we are trying to tell people. People can share emotions, intentions and meanings even though their spoken language may be mutually incomprehensible. We can find all the words we have been meaning to look for while we are writing songs or simply listening to songs on the radio or on your playlist. Music helps us find the words that we can’t say.
3. Music brings people together
Music frees the soul. It allows you to express yourself in ways that are unimaginable. It can relax you, excite you, even bring out emotions you never knew existed. Music brings love into the air – it makes people feel more connected and it creates memories that will last for a lifetime. It doesn’t matter what you believe in or stand for, music is for everyone. Music opens up a whole new door – a door full of new friends, beginnings and perspectives. It helps shape people into the person they want to become. Singing along to a song can change your mood in just a few seconds. It puts a smile on your face as you feel every word you’re singing. Everyone knows this to be true because whenever we hear one of our favorite songs come on, a rush of adrenaline bursts through our body.
As it was written, there are three reasons why music is one of the most important things in life: a way of expression, a way of communicating, and bringing people together.
