Where can you not find music in this world? You can’t,
because it’s everywhere. This is because it has easy access and is growing as we
speak. I think the reason music is so
big today and everyone enjoys it is because music has such a big impact on a person’s
mood. No matter what type of genre you listen
to, it makes your mood better.
Therefore, putting more music in your life is a powerful doing and will
result in a more cheerful/relaxing person.
Putting more music in your life would be an easy goal to accomplish due
to the fact that you can listen to music in a car, airplane, shower, bathroom,
buildings, and computer. Basically, you
can listen to music everywhere if you have headphones and most buildings and
restaurants play music. Also, the
internet offers easy access to download various music either free or for a
price. The music is then easily directly to a computer hard drive, cell phone, or iPod.
Now, we know that music affects the mood in the body but
what are some examples? Entertainment
is a way music influences mood because it lifts the mood before people going out and helps passing up time. For example, people
play music before going to a club or party because it gets them in the right
mindset, also people play music while doing dishes, traveling, reading, or
surfing the web because it passes up time.
Music is played in mornings when waking up in order to revive your mood
and wake you up, getting you prepared for the day. By the end of the day music is still being
played in order to calm the body down before going to sleep. Last, “Music distracts the mind from
unpleasant thoughts which can easily fill the silence.” This is why people turn to listening to music
when frightened or depressed because it will get your mind off of thinking
about that particular situation occurring in your life.
What about an emotional type of mood? Yes, music affects
this to by providing emotional experiences (even while performing). For example, people dealing with a death in
the family or a friend turn to music for relief, and this is why music is such
a big part of most funerals. Some even think music
has a parallel resemblance with the type of mood you are in. For example, a college kid just failed his
last biology test and is angry, so he gets in his car to go get food after the
test and blasts some ACDC rock music.
ACDC music involves a lot of yelling and loud music and is very similar
to an angry type of mood. Overall, music
is not going anywhere and is going to be on this world a lot longer; therefore everyone
should find a way to incorporate music in their life, so that way music can
change the moods of people day after day.
