I don’t mean to criticise but it’s a fact that’s bugging me. Fuck!
Are you a music-lover?
Do you appreciate music even though you don’t like the genre?
Do you sometimes listen to other genres although you are a one-concept-genre type of person?
Can you REALLY SUFFER without music?
If all of your answers are a ‘yes’, I love you.
Seriously, I hate the fact of people who like to criticise music and saying that music is one hell of a bad influence.
And yes, for me, talking to these people can REALLY create an argument! Hah!
Okok. The whole story was when I was chilling and lying on the carpet beside my mum, watching her reading the newspaper (yes, I admit I don’t have any better things to do. Haha).
She was reading this article when suddenly my hp started to ring.
And duh, the ringtone is like one hell of a metal song.
Suddenly, she said (translated in English) “eww…sounds like someone dying. Music is a bad influence. You could get carried away and do something beyond your religion, you know?!”
Then I was like “wth!? I know you don’t like this type of Rock songs. But it is STILL a music. You can’t just anyhow criticise it saying that music is a bad influence!”
Mum : whatever. You can’t just listen to music. It will make you slack through your studies and your life!
Me: if so then, you can’t listen to nasyid (religious songs) then. There’s music what..
Mum: that’s different la..
Me: no, that’s not! there is still a music in it. They even have some slow Rock versions too ok?!
Me: and you can’t even listen to the radio then. There’s music!
Mum: *silent*
I won! Haha
To me, if you don’t like one particular genre, you either turn off the radio or just don’t listen to it!
No need for any criticism..
People have their own musical interest and too bad that mine was totally different with my mum’s.
And it all depends on individuals if they got influenced or not. I don’t.
Those badly influenced ones are those who lead music into a negative. That’s them.
Music can be something to express ourselves and even distress ourselves.
Cos’ you will listen to it, let out the anger through the lyrics, cry if you have to and you’ll feel better.
It all depends on different types of people.
All I can say is, if you totally discriminate music, just go into an empty room, don’t do anything but just wait for time to pass each day. Don’t touch or do anything because you may create noises and noises could create sounds and sounds could create music!
Dang!
P.S. I don’t mean to criticise or discriminate anything or anyone. This is something that I want to express in my blog. I apologise if anything or anyone have any hard feelings about what I have written.
