Find Some Music

It's amazing how the video era changed the way we see music. I was watching Transformers: Dark Of The Moon for the 16th time. Don't you dare judge me. And there was a song that played in a scene where the "heroes" approach the fallen city of Chicago.

When I saw the movie in the theater, immediately I knew who the artist was. While I watched, I felt that the backdrop of the carnage was perfect. Then I saw the official music video. Not what I pictured. But then I thought, that's what music is supposed to do.

Music should make you feel...

Music should make you move...

Music should make you SEE.

As a kid I remember that aside from reading, music was my greatest escape. In my mind, I saw the scenes laid out by singers/songwriters. And they spoke to me with their words of love and passion. They wooed me with their frustrations and melancholy. They brought to life places I'd never been and people I'll never meet, and I felt alive.

Today get some music in your life, and see where it takes you.
