I think music is music. I don't think that music particularly hurts society, or particularly enhances it. Purely, I find it to be another way of telling a story, or a more catchy tune to a public announcement. Music can touch people the way a beau...

C.S. Lewis once said that "Friendship is unneccesary, like philosophy, like art...it has no survival value; rather, it is one of those things that give value to survival." I think music is like that. At it's best, music makes you feel and think th...

I cooked my dinner tonight, all by myself. Well, there were the guys that grew the plants and the animals. And the ones that shipped it to the packaging factory, and the ones that produced the packaging, and the ones that worked in the packaging f...

Music is an art form directed at a particular audience, also in saying that Music is art the phrase "art is in the eye of the beholder" also applies to this situation. Music has the ability to move and inspire and to do either good or bad. So musi...

All right, let's get one thing straight: to read The Republic superficially is an incorrect interpretation of the dialogue. Plato has Socrates saying so much crazy and contradictory crap, the reader is SUPPOSED to say, "Wait a minute Socrates...th...

We process music in the part of the brain the process emotion. So, our ability to link emotion and music is part of our brain structure and function. I learned that by reading Oliver Sacks. But it all depends on what type of music we listen to and...
