"Some people think they like music, but they have no idea what it's really about. They're kidding themselves. Then there are poeple who feel strongly about music, but just aren't listening to teh right stuff. They're misguided. And there are people like me.".........."what king of people are those?"......"The kind who live for music and are constanly seeking it out, anywhere they can. Who can't imagine a life without it. They're enlightened."....." I mean when you think about it music is a great uniter. An incredible force. Something that people who differ on everything and anything alse can have in common."......"plus there's the fact that music is a total constant. That's why we have such a strong visceral connection to it, you know? Becasue a song can take you back instanltly to a moment, or a place, or even a person. No matter what else has changed in you or in the world, that one song stays the same, just like that moment."
I am reading Just Listen by Sarah Dessen....i read this passage type deal and was kinda blown away. It makes total sense what this guy is saying, i started to remember songs which lead me to a fun time with friends or just a time when i was cruising in the car with the windows down and the sun on my face. I love music and making this connection to it makes me love it even more. :)
