In the previous chapter, we said that music is a universal language, a dialect that brings together people and cultures. Go even to the most exterior places in the world, or the most miniature communities and you will hear them mention music as a way of lifestyle among them because music is globally recognized.
Music evokes feelings, either being emotional, being psyched up, feeling high, or just relaxed. Whenever my mind feels clogged, I just listen to a song, dance a bit and maybe sing out loud while some people would prefer to meditate, hit the gym or go for a run(which by the way is accompanied with music for a better effect), or write their thoughts in a journal(I would rather type than write, urgh!!!).

Music has been understood to reduce stress and treat pain. While a song is playing, emotions are spilled, the sound frequencies and rhythm treat physical ailments by making the pain feel numb or non- existent. Psychologist Daniel J. Levitin, a student of the neuroscience of music at McGill University in Montreal through various studies has established that listening to music is more effective than prescription drugs in reducing anxiety before surgery, (Trends in Cognitive Sciences,2013). It helps the brain feel relaxed especially patients suffering from depression.
A sight to uphold happened when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world. Concerts and tours were canceled so artists, rockstars, pop stars, DJs, and event organizers had to come up with ways to deliver to the audience. From free online concerts, singing and deejaying in the rooftops and balconies to people serenading one another, singing along to their favorite songs and dancing like no one is watching. That’s the power of music.
Italian DJ playing from his balconyA meme surfaced online showing a lady cleaning her house bored without music, but when the music’s on she ju7mps on it fast enough. All the areas of your life involve music, your wake-up tune is a song from your playlist, you wake up to switch on the Bluetooth system, the radio or tv, clean the house with earphones on or the audio system blasting the house, you dance and sing in the shower as if you are in Tomorrowland Belgium 2019(hehehehehe).
