RE: Rediscovering Music - Part Two
Great question! Omg remember when mtv was ONLY music videos?!? I do! I don’t even watch it anymore.
As for if it’s the lyrics or video? For me it’s neither. It’s the BEATS! The sound 💓. It’s what moves me to dance or to cry. It’s rare for me to listen to music with lyrics these days. I find them to be shallow and void of meaning. They get stuck in your head! So if you believe that thoughts become things, which I do, I do not want lyrics running through my most powerful tool, my mind! I love electronic, classical (cello 💓), Jazz... beats with no lyrics.
I’m traveling today, so I can’t listen to your links. I’ll have to take some time soon. I make it sound like I never listen to pop music, I do. Just rare.
I remember when I was a teen I knew every band, every member, every album... now I’m lucky to recall what I had for dinner last night! 😛
I think MTV stopped playing music videos some times back. Lol, what's the point of having the MTV name?!
Ah, you are a beats person...classical and jazz. I did forget that one oh so important factor of music. Probably because I am tone deaf. I can't carry a tune or move along with the beat. I can listen to alternative or trance music for the beat aspect, but only if it has a nice vocal to it too.
Same as you, I used to know all about music back in the days. I was a member of the BMG CD club when CDs were ridiculously overpriced at $25! I had quite a collection. I listen to the radio through the years, but stopped really listening to music. Just realized now that I miss it.
I like my first list more if you want to take a look at a couple artists. I am loving the first two singers, Calum and Ed Sheeran. Simply soothing.
Hope you are having fun traveling! Be safe and enjoy these special moments with your family.
