Hello good day and good morrow to you. What is up on this day which is today? I feel awful. Its that time, if you know what I mean and I am getting the antisocial bug. For the next few days I'll probably have it. sigh*
On a brighter note, today lets talk about music. I think it would be nice to get a good mood going. So what kind of music are you into? Do you have a particular genre that you favor?
For me music holds a special place in my heart. I grew up with it. When I was younger I used to play the Cuatro. Not alot of people know that about me since I only used to when we used to play Parang in a small family band. Those were the days and was also a very long time ago.
Oh Parang is the music Trinidadians and Tobagonians usually play during Christmas time. Its is a mixture of Spanish, french and English songs. If you've never heard a Parang song you should look it up. Its pretty awesome.
Anyway dont play Quatro anymore but I hope to get one soon and re learn it. I do play guitar though and because of it, I learnt to play all kind of songs and that made me appreciate all kinds of genres of music. Any music lover will tell you that its really isn't the type of song but if its catchy enough, or reaches you in the right place, that's all you need to like a song. I must admit I tend to like acoustic versions of songs better than the recorded version. Its awesome when an artist can put soul into a song with just a piano or guitar or banjo or whatever playing. That is a true musician, a true artist. I listen to songs that are not even English as well. Music is one of those things that breaks language barriers and for once it doesn't matter where your from, what your background is or what you ate last night. Its just one of those things.
Maybe its truly magic or however you would call it. Maybe its just that guy with the lute.Whatever it is, good music always finds a way to touch your soul.
Words of advice for today: Music can feed our moods, so if you're in a bad mood listen to cheerful music it'll make you feel better. However sometimes listening to the to music of people who are in the same kind of emotional turmoil helps you feel that there is someone there who just gets it. That can help too.
So why do you listen to music? What kind of music are you into? Leave me a message telling me whatever you want. I'll reply.
Ciao for now and Auf Wiedersehen. MUCH LOVE AND PEACE!!
