But Pharrel Williams for real, I really like Bastille, a lot. The music is sorta sadistic, in a way. A few of the songs sound really creepy, 'cause it was made to sound like an old vinyl that got messed up. The video for "Of the Night" is super creepy, too. I would not want that to start playing when I am alone in a dark room. Just putting that out there. It is sorta similar to Imagine Dragons and Coldplay (both groups I absolutely LOVE). Most people don't like my type of music, and that's just fine. A lot of what I listen to is, different I guess. My brothers pretty much hate my new Bastille CD, and they don't really like Coldplay either. They really like Red Hot Chili Peppers and Imagine Dragons, though, which is good. If you took a look at my classic iPod, or even my Pandora stations, you could see I have an extremely wide variety of music. I'll provide a list of recommended music at the end of this post :)
To me, music is a lot. A whole bunch of my time is taken up by Varsity marching band. I play the clarinet, by the way. As a clarinetist, I take real pride in what our band is able to accomplish in concert and in marching band :P I would rather go to a Red Hot concert than go to the mall (I don't know, where does the youth of today hang out?). At our country fair, Three Doors Down came, and I went to their concert instead of hanging out with my friends at the rides and games. Worth it, 100%. They are absolutely amazing in concert, they kept on addressing the audience as "my friends". How awesome!! Anyhow, music helps me work better: sewing, homework, really anything. If I could, I would go to sleep listening to music, but I can't 'cause I want to listen to all the lyrics ha. But really, if I didn't have the ability to obtain music like I can (like being allowed to buy CD's and whatnot), I don't think I would be quite the same person. Maybe you other people don't feel it, but music doesn't necessarily change my thinking, but it definitely changes me in some way. The way certain artists sing (especially live versions!!) and the instruments put together really well just... feel good. I especially love it when artists redo their songs live and with an orchestra in the stead of whatever they had before. (Pompeii with strings is an awesome example, it is such an amazing song with strings!!) Listening to good music can change my mood and help me calm down if I'm upset or frustrated. I have a play list on my iPod called "Chillin' Jams" that have a whole buncha music that I like to listen to settle down. I don't know, maybe I'm making my music seem more philosophical then it really is, but you know. Gah, how do I even explain this?? Do any of you guys feel that music is special in some way or another? All I know is I like music. Possibly it's just I'm a loser and take consul in other's musical achievements. Now I'm starting to over-think my love for music...
