Music is the soundtrack of my life.

Music is the soundtrack of my life.

:thumb: I totally agree with you . I can relate every stage of my life to music I was listening too . Whether I was 8yrs old , my first girlfriend or getting tear gassed in a riot . So many different ways to apply it .

I wouldnt want to live without it, i can say that much

If you were faced with the choice that you had to either be deaf or blind...what would it be? I often say I would choose to be blind because I couldn't stand not being able to experience music. Thankfully, I am not either, and I appreciate that everyday :wink:
Also, I can say music is my life in other ways also:
My husband and I own a music/dvd store..so literally it is my life :wink:
I've been singing for years, so music is special in that way also :thumb:

What store is it, I'll have to check you guys out. I love the privately owned "mom & pop" shops!

I agree with all of you regarding music. Every area of my life I can relate to music. Whether it is rock, pop, country, metal, or rap every genre has permeated my soul at some time in my life. Even some of the death metal I listen to, I can relate to something in my life, even if the lyrics make no sense, as long as the music provokes a feeling. Thats all you need!
I find I work harder and more productive when a kickin' song is on.

music means a lot to me.. it's a big part of our family, my 2 eldest sons play the guitar pretty well, my husband plays the accordion, guitar, mouth organ, has his own choir and a sings in a band.
but.... it's not the most important thing in my life...

most important are the people I love..

Music means a lot to me. Like a lot of you have already mentioned, it can bring back specific memories of events or people or just be related to a period of time in my life. I listen to music almost constently throughout the day. I've played guitar for a big part of my life as well though I'm still no good.

The feeling that I get at a concert when the band is "on" and connectiong with each other and the crowd is undescribeable. It makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up and puts a huge smile on my face.

I really can't imagine my life without music. Well I could imagine it without a lot of the shitty, cookie cutter music that I listen to throughout the day at work on the radio like the Nickleback that's playing right now, but without good music life would be bland.

Music also means that I spend a lot of my money on things like cds and minidiscs not to mention concert tickets. In my mind it's all worth it though. :thumb:

Long live good music.

Music is the universal language of mankind

and

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

I'll let the quotes speak for themselves.
