Music to me is audio emotion. It's like when someone describes something they feel and you realize you connect to it because you feel that way but could never have put words to it. To me, music is the same, and really I find it even more powerful because I can feel connected to music that has a message I do not connect with or subscribe to. To me, music is the ultimate expression of emotion, or more simply, the getting what is inward out. I imagine a ballerina feels the same way about dance, and an artist feels this about painting or sculpting. I'm a musician, and music does the things that speak to the deepest parts of me.

Thanks, I'm sure artists across different mediums feel the same. I'm intruiged you say you could connect to music even if the message of the music isn't something you can connect with. That's interesting.

Yeah, I like Three Six Mafia, but I don't call women bitches nor do I condone it. I also have never used or even held a glock, tech, or any other firearm for that matter. Another band I like is Rage Against the Machine. I don't agree at all with them politically and a lot of the messages that are in their music. They are a kick-ass band, and I love listening to their music.
