I love listening to the lyrics in songs, and especially feeling them when they relate. But classical music, it has no need for lyrics. No words are spoken and even though the words aren't spoken, words are heard. At least to me they are.
Classical music is wonderful, powerful and magical. I have no doubts about this. There's something about it that makes me grin like an idiot, or weep like an old sap. I love how it can make us feel strong emotions without needing the words there. Because we create the words, we morph the song into our own. Classical music becomes something personal to us all because it becomes our song. It becomes everyones' song.
The years may pass, trends may come and go, my likes and dislikes shift, but classical music is always there, it's always the same simply because it's always different. That's confusing I know, but hear me out. Because of the fact that it morphs into our songs it becomes what we may need, what we may want.
The music can bring joy and memories, or it can help ease the sorrow we feel inside. We can relate to it.
Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven is one of my favorites. It's dark and moody and full of sorrow, and hope, and it has at times in my life made me cry. But I love it all the same.
I love happy songs as well like Fur Elise, but if you know me, you know I dig the dark and depressing. Call me a masochist. But I do.
I'm currently listening to one, called Torment of the Soul by Larry Groupe. I suggest you Youtube this. I thank my friend for using it in one of her trailers she made because she introduced me to it. It's a dark and beautiful song. There are no words to describe how amazing it is.
Listen to it. Listen to classical music! I think people don't appreciate it as much as they should. But I'm content in knowing that I do appreciate it.
