an impact? or not so an impact?

As I plug on my headphones to the radio of my handphone lately makes me realise so much. I mean not the song ‘Realise’ but I just realise that music has becomes so much of an impact to people. Many claims that music brings out the life in them. Is it really true? You see more than 50% of people who takes public transport listen and put on their headphones. They can’t be listening to other stuffs apart from songs or radios like I do right?

I’ve come to realise that the songs we listen and hum along is very important. It affects the person inside out I’d say. If you listen clearly to each songs, some songs words are just terrible. The atrocious lyrics can really pull down your day. And worst still, some songs are just not meant to be heard. Songs like ‘Suidicdal’? Promoting death? Isn’t it weird people enjoy listening to it? Worst still, singing along with it? My sister suddenly sang that song that day. My mum and I was wondering.. When on earth did she got that in? It affects a 9 year old kid. How much more does it affect the older people? You tell me..

I enjoy listening to oldies, blues, ballads and R&B lately because of it’s soothing melody and words. I mean for real. I have just 3 channels on my radio. I have been putting headphones on in college, to and from college and so on. But 3 channels; I don’t stick to 1. Somehow, I change channels when I don’t like those particular songs. And to be frank, I hate advertisements. So when advertisments comes alone the way, I’d just brush it off and goes on to another channel.

How much does songs impact us? Just put a thought into your mind. I was just thinking through. It clearly affects me a lot. Let’s take example of the song by Mariah Carey- Touch My Body. As you listen to the word, does this phrase ‘Am I gonna let anyone and everyone touch my body?’ goes into mind? Just ask yourself. No right? I mean i am not educating on what songs you should and you should not listen too. But it is something that people should all ponder about.

I have this habit of harmonising songs lately. Be it circular or gospel songs but I’ve learnt to choose the songs I listen too, the genre, the words, the artiste. I think it is vital for everyone to do the same way as this helps lead to a healthier lifestyle. Like it or not, music, songs affects each and everyone of us. For music junkies, you know what I mean.

Worst still, certain songs affects your emotions and soul. Why bother listening to it over and over again. It drowns into you. I’d rather you listen to decent things that would give you a great day ahead. No all songs are harmful but there are. Songs like Realize are quite fine but trust me, many on the radios are quite harmful to the soul.

On the lighter note, thank you faitful readers for coming and promoting my blog. I’d try to keep blogging a habit and apart of my life. Thank you college people for telling me that you like to read my blog. But unfortunately, I can’t always successfully find something to bite and comment on it. I am not pro bloggers like Kenny Sia and all. I am just being me, myself and I- the alvin! So, if you think that you have a topic I can bite on easily, do drop me a note. I’d see if I can put it into a blogging post. You guys make me day! =)
