How Music Impacts Our Everyday Lives

Good music can make a huge difference in any environment. It makes a child happy, helps a lover express his feelings, makes everyone dance and can even make plants grow faster! It is rare to find someone who actually abhors music.

Most of the people not only like listening to it but also learning it in various forms. If you are a disc jockey, you can spin music for others. Many try to learn to play musical instruments. Others, with even passable singing voices, aim to train themselves to sing. Then there are those who use dance as a medium to enjoy music. Many actually love composing music and the rest like music recording.

Kids have a special affinity to music. Even newborns love to hear soothing sounds. In fact doctors claim that playing soft music when pregnant helps a child in the womb calm down and become more musically inclined. Much of what a child likes in music depends upon what he has been exposed to in his childhood. So, if you love listening to rock, your child will probably pick up that trait too. Newborns have been seen to respond positively to melodious tunes. Many cranky babies become quieter on being exposed to rhythmic and soft sounds. Mothers have been known to help their babies sleep with the sweet strains of lullabies. Parents can download music that soothe their kid and use that to help him get calm.

Where would lovers be without music? Some of the best songs and tunes have been utterly romantic. Who can forget the hauntingly beautiful title track of “Love Story”? Lovers have been using music to express their feelings from ancient times. The ancient tribes in almost any place on earth used some form of music and dancing to attract mates. Whether it was the drums of Africa, the piano of Europe or flute of India, hypnotic music has brought many a couple together. Lord Krishna’s mellifluous flute tunes have made him one of the most romantic Gods ever. Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet were known to break into songs to let out their feelings and even today, most of Hollywood’s romantic comedies heavily depend on digital music recording to become blockbusters.

Of course, there would be no dance without music. Dance is one of the easiest ways to feel completely free. But unless there is some good foot tapping number on, dancing is out of the question. Even if you have two left feet, you will sway to the sounds of the popular songs. Music is the life of parties. Discos and bars cannot do without it. Whether it is a wedding dance or a birthday bash, music can make any social occasion full of fun.

If you love music, you love life. It can touch souls, pass great messages and change the world. So, sing, dance, compose or just plain listen to music and set your soul free. It is one of the easiest ways to enjoy the moment and live it up.
