How music changes the world





Music is the most powerful form of magic, it can save a soul and change the world. And music did change the world, and it keeps influencing us everyday.Anyone listens to music, no matter what genre, human beings need music to feel understood, to never feel alone, to spend their time in a pleasant way.

Music has a huge influence on what we do and what we think, so it could change anything, a song could start a revolution and inspire people. Let's just think about national anthems, and how we always refer to them when we talk about our Country.
As a cultural expression, music can also communicate strong values to the ones who listen to it. Several organisations used music to spread their beliefs, for example Amnesty International, which put on many charity concerts to support human rights.


Music also brings people together: boys and girls often meet in discos or karaoke bars and they start socialising. Sometimes strong friendships born just like this, thanks to music. Also, talking about music can be a nice way to mingle with others, it feels truly amazing when there is someone who listens to the same music you love, and there is nothing better than talking with them about you favourite singers and end up singing your favourite songs together.
Foreign music can also help people all around the world to know each others, and if you are learning a foreign language, listening to music in that language can be a great advantage.


Music also makes us more empathetic and sensitive because we are brought inside the songwriters' head, we hear about their feelings, we get to know the way he lives his problems and we relate with him or not. This way, when we will meet someone who feels the same (or when we will have that feeling ourselves) we will be able to symphatise with them and, why not, give them some help.
Music can also help to relax, it teaches to meditate about life and find out what is wrong with it. And yet, after a tiring day, spending some time alone just listening to relaxing music and drinking a cup of tea can change your life. That's the best medicine.


That's why music changes the world, because it changes us. Maybe we should stop running for a minute and let music fill ourselves, get to our heart and touch our soul. The world could look very different, after that.
