What is Music?? How will a person define music??? Some might say soothing sound..... some strange out-of-the-world person would categorise the sound of chainsaw cutting wood as music as well.... Looks like people can debate on this topic forever. It's said that Humans are social animals... I would go further ahead and say that humans are also musical animals.... I don't think there are people who live without listening to music. In fact, it has been proved scientifically that plants also listen to music....
Hey, why am I posting some random information about music? This is just a prelude to my post. It's said in English Grammar that a good passage consists of an Introduction, Body and a conclusion... So here I am, trying my best to follow this... Oops!!! this is another distraction.... Let's come back to the topic....As the title says, I'll talking about my perception on various music genres.
Please note that this is my personal opinion and I'm not trying to impose my views on any of the readers....
Classical Music : A person needs to be classy to understand this type of music. This is the foundation to all the music being created. In fact, when a person learns music, he / she has to learn classical music. There are no 2 ways abt it. In fact, most of the successful Indian singers are accomplished classical musicians.. Now that's food for thought....
Pop : I'm not a huge fan of pop...Let's not talk abt it... I include remixes alongwith this genre... My view is that I'll listen to pop.. in case if it's the only music left in the universe.. I like a few tracks here and there... but those are far and few.....
Hiphop and Rap : I like the videos... Who doesn't like them :-P... But music-wise, some are very good and some are ok-ish... As long as u don't get offended by lyrics of most of the tracks.. I don't think many people will dislike this genre of music...
Rock, Metal, Heavy Metal, Death Metal and any music that's heavy ;-) : I guess my profile name gives away my preference.... :D.... Yes, I love rock music.. Many people perceive it to be only noise.. Believe me, if u haven't listened to rock, u have missed something in life.. So, what are u waiting for??? My all time favorite rock band is METALLICA.
Indian movies' music scene is sort of a cocktail of different genres of music... It combines every possible genre of music, that too in a single track.... That's what makes this music scene unique... My favorite songs are those which have a touch of classical and Rock music.. which makes the numbers less than others....
There's no rights or wrongs in a person's taste for music... and I believe that no music is bad.. it's only that an individual likes or dislikes a particular type of music..... There are a few things about a person, which should not be criticised and preference for music is one among them....
So, what are u waiting for?? Go grab ur Music Player or something and put on some music.. After all, there is no background score in real life ;-)....
