Music Helps Me

Posted by Parus @parus, Oct 13, 2017

At times music can be helpful. I like the group Anthem Lights...A new discovery for me when I was perusing youtube. A Capella has always been my thing. I love to sing!!!!!

@johnbishop That is what I needed this morning! How uplifting to hear a group of young people of their own accord, come together and sing!

@johnbishop, @gingerw, and all...I just listened to these remarkable young voices again. With all that's happening now in this world, I needed the uplift of this video.
Thank you, again, dear John.

Ahh, music🎶. My husband plays guitar and we have had music in our lives since we were teenagers. It has kept us sane and helped us through many a difficult time. I cannot describe the peace of mind and physical healing I get from music. I recommend it to everyone who is suffering or having difficulty coping with health or emotional issues. There are so many genres of music out there. Surely one of them is just right for you. Wishing you happy listening and peace of mind and body. 🎶

Replying to @jimhd. Music has been very helpful to me. In fact my former rheumatologist, now a friend, has been participating in a study involving music and dance, and how it has brought joy to many people. Sometimes when listening to my music late at night with the headphones I sometimes find myself moving with the rhythm of whatever happens to be playing or a song I especially like. It also helps me stay focused when working on my art. I have found lately I am listening to "oldies" which bring back many happy memories of times past. I am not a huge fan of some of the new music because with my hearing impairment, it is next to impossible to understand the lyrics.

Music is wonderful! My husband and I love many different kinds of music; especially patriotic, western and polkas. We really like Lawerence Welk, Guy Lombardo, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles etc. It makes you feel happy and remember where you were when the song was first played. Music is great for good health! There is a wonderful radio show that you can get online called, "Seems like old times." They play music from a specific year all the way back to the 1920's. They also tell you what the news was then and the movies. Really fun to listen to! Plus you learn a lot from it! I didn't know that we had 10,000 planes in the air on "D" Day! No wonder we won WWII!

Sad to hear of the passing of one of my all time favorites - Gordon Lightfoot. His music lives on...

It broke my heart when I found out. A poet has passed. His melody, his words, his music shall endure.
