♪ Music ♩



Music is probably my biggest crush ever and at the same time best friend. 
Since I choose very carefully my friends, I have the same type of relationship with music. I'm not picky, I enjoy all musicgenre doesn't matter to a music lover as me. Nevertheless, I've got those standards when it comes to just listening to good music. However, it's not about the genre, it's about the quality. I'd rather not listen than listen to crap music... End of the talk!
Though, what I've been noticing nowadays is that so many people seem to be so concerned about what particular genre of music they listen to, that they seem to be forgetting that it shouldn't matter as long as the meaning behind the music has meaning to somebody. People are more concerned with indulging in what is more popular at the time that they don't really stop and think about what they truly enjoy and what they like to listen to. They just want to follow the trend.
People shouldn't listen to something just based on its popularity at the time. They should listen to it because they get a higher meaning out of it and because it is the type of music that speaks to them at that time.
No music should be called a "guilty pleasures". People shouldn't be embarassed by what they enjoy. If you enjoy listening to that genre or band, own it. You shouldn't have to hide your tastes or aversions from anyone -- you are who you are, and you like what you like.
My favorite quote is, "Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." by Dr. Seuss. If you like a particular band or genre and it speaks to you, then that's great. Other people may not agree with you, but we shouldn't all have to agree -- that's what makes us unique individuals. I'd just be happy that the person was interested in music. 
Music is music. If you love it, you shouldn't be ashamed of it. If you love it, shout it out! Don't look down other genres of music just because your friends don't like it. if you like it, that's what will matter at the end of the day."The first music that you really fall in love with is more than just music." Taylor says, "Its something that clicks in you,beyond the song, it's a message or image that causes you to jump in and not let go." (Taylor Hanson)
Never forget, When words fail, music speaks...
It's just my opinion anyway.
A few days ago I was getting ready to back to my old unsalted life. But luckily I realized I'm still young and this, whatever it is, whatever it will be, is my future. I won't give up on it because I've been sort of slapped by life. It's my life, it's now or never. 
To finish, I'd like to share a song I've fallen in love the first time I listen to. The lyrics are somewhat arguable, I know... To be honest, the reason I like it so much is because I'm able to relate to it. It remembers me some hard times I've been through that I felt like God wasn't there for me. In the end, fortunately, I understood what it was all about and that he was, he has always been there for me. And of course, because of the harmony of the song, which is, let's confess, perfect, brilliant, speechless.  
Well, I just hope you like it too...
Cheers, 
Tommy


You Found Me 

Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late ... You found me, you found me...
