Songs that move you

There is nothing better than classical. I got hooked on classical hard. Can’t get enough of it. It puts me in an altered state, like I am in another realm. Non-lyrical music helps expand the mind. I really envy any of you who stuck with your musical instrument for life.

This next one sounds like an Irish slave song of Indentured Servitude. He sings about working in the fields and the weeds and the crops and the land, but it is all symbolic and metaphorical for something else.

@comicsgate : Sometimes the most simple thing has the most power. This guys song is four chords, the same four chords hear 1000000 times before in songs.

But the message and meaning behind his words makes this song powerful.

@DarthVengeant Yes, an he’s playing a dobro, which is a resonator, and not even really a guitar, as a friend of mine informed me. A lot of reactors said the guy’s voice really stood out. Like you said, “message and meaning.” The competition does not have that. The entertainment industry may as well already be A.I. because it is mass produced quantity of the same bland, fluff, bubblegum nonsense of consumerism. I saw some headline that Late Night talk shows went on hiatus for 3 months and no one noticed? I don’t know if it was a real headline or not because I stopped watching a long time ago because they are all the same. They speak the same. Same jokes, same stars. Admittedly, I used to watch it all, but years ago.

@DarthVengeant The entertainment industry lost it’s connection to real issues and real people and real substance, so when something like this or Sound of Freedom comes along with no overhead and no advertising budget and makes a statement, it adds to the impact when the industry gets triggered by it. You see the selfishness of the industry and how much they hate competition and despise anyone else who gets a little taste of success. What makes it twice as powerful is to see the privileged media class get mad. As with the Jason Aldean song, the more simple and basic the verses are, the more of an impact it has because it’s very direct, very plain and very honest. It does not need CGI or A.I. or fireworks, because it’s not trying to bamboozle you with sound and fury. There’s no Industrial Light and Magic with these guys.

This series has some of the most beautiful music ever composed. Mhysa is one of the best; listening to it is almost a spiritual experience.

Is anyone here prepared to say
Just what they mean or is it too late?
For anyone here to try to do
Just what it takes to get through to you

Strangle my hope and make me pray
To a God I’ve never seen, but who I betray
To the people who live the after life
In a place I’ll never be till I’m crucified
