Good lyricist deserves their flowers 🌹
Music is my best friend
Music is medicine to the soul
Listen to music that brings comfort and calmness to your mind!
Read with me!
I come back from a walk with my dog, a few ideas kicks in but still looks shady as I am yet to figure out what to do, suddenly my mind syncs with my emotions picking out comforting recipes from my subconscious to help my thought process.
I pick my phone, turn to downloaded music in my Audiomack app, I select a song.
A little here and there intro is heard, the usual thing I guess! As the intro faded into the real lyrics, a solemn, deep but transparent voice comes on. It was my favorite artist!
The first 2 sentences of the lyrics sends a calm soothing feel to my mind, my head slowly tilted up as my eye closed in response, my head simultaneously moved left and then right, in response to the music.
Since I was familiar with the song, I calmly followed the lyrics, sang solemnly for a while whilst trying to emulate the singer.
Then I start to feel my voice increasing, I followed in line word for word, tone for tone, just then, my emotions were let out and my voice got louder.
The louder I got, the more emotional I became. I got lost in the moment until I was in a state I couldn’t even explain.
The song played for 3 minutes and was fading out, I slowly gained consciousness and went into a state of calmness for 10 seconds.
What a comfort to my soul, that someone feels the same way I do and can write a song that brings out my best emotion.
Here’s what ChatGPT has to say about my connection with music!
N.B - I do not currently have a dog though, I only write from past experience and in preparedness to getting another one soon.
To my best singer “Burna Boy” — from your singles to collaborations, albums and then to winning Grammy! All performances artistic.
