There is no denying that if music didn’t exist, our lives would be so boring. Nowadays, more and more people enjoy listening to music and they listen to their favorite songs at different times. It proves that music plays an essential role in their lives. However, not many people recognize the reasons why music is important to them. In my opinion, there are three main reasons.
The first reason is listening to music is the easiest way to help people release the stress built up in their body. Many people prefer to listen to music in the evening when they come back home after an exhausted working day. It’s because music makes them feel relaxed. Music affects our mind and body drastically. It can reduce the concentration of cortisol – a type of hormone that causes stress. If you hear pianissimo and profound melodies, you will feel like your spirit are soaring, all problems in your daily life are being temporarily put on the back burner and they seem to be easier for you to deal with. When you are tired and slack, a song full of vitality will make you feel excited and motivated. A research conducted by the doctors from Oberwalliser Hospital, Sweden shows that listening to classical music, especially Mozart’s music, can help stabilize heart sounds – a factor whose change can lead to stress.
The second reason is like perfume, music has the ability to restore the memories of people. Scientists from Sogn Og Fjordane University, Norway say that when people listen to a song they used to enjoy many times, they will be able to remember things in the past related to that song. For example, when I studied a military school last March, I listened to the song “Impossible” sung by Shontelle a lot and now, every time I hear the tunes of this song, all my unforgettable memories about that period of time flow back.
The third reason is music can be seen as a string that connects people together. In some cases, there are things that you can’t tell other people in words and the best choice for you at that time is to send them a song whose meaning can express what you want to say. Music is a very effective communication tool, especially for those who are falling in love because music is considered as a lovely declaration of love.
In conclusion, I think there are three main reasons explaining why music is important to many people. Music gives us peaceful and relaxing moments and it makes us realize how beautiful our lives are. However, you shouldn’t abuse music too much in order to avoid being dependent on it and isolated from people around you.
I love listening to music in my free time and my favorite music is all kinds. I love music and its got to be in us because I use it so we can relax. When we’re mad I hear music and it calms me down. Or if you just want to listen to music for the fun its all good. Many people relax just listening to music once in a while because they just want to chill. When you are frustrated sometimes music changes your mood. That’s why I think music is a big roll in my life. My favourite singers are: Taylor Swift, One Direction ( a music band),... In Viet Nam, I like listening to many songs of Trinh Cong Son because they are very impressive. In my class, Minh Hang sings well, she has a sweet voice. I don't wanna be a singer in the future.
