Music…We listen it in every places: at home, school, work, shopping malls, concerts.. on train, bus, ship or taxi. We listen it even if there is no one is playing it. It starts in our head and then we continue to sing or listen it. Because it is part our life that we can’t live without it. Music occupies a lot for our lives. It is just like water. We really need it. I am really in need of it. It gives a way to our live my live. When we are happy we sing, we dance or we listen it. We spread smile around and sing again. When we are really sad maybe we cry, but most of the time we listen it to relax. It helps us to overcome most difficulties in our life with its own special way. Therefore, music is really very important thing for human beings. Briefly, in this poem Elizabeth Bishop points out the importance and intense need of music. It’s magical effects to our emotions or feelings.
“I have my own particular sorrows, loves, delights; and you have yours. But sorrow, gladness, yearning, hope, love, belong to all of us, in all times and in all places. Music is the only means whereby we feel these emotions in their universality.” Harry Allen Overstreet
