Music, a Universal Language

I took this video on a Route 96 Tram to St Kilda, Melbourne. I never heard this song but, I liked the spirit with which it is sung. The young men truly changed the atmosphere into a lively one. Imagine, at 6:30PM on a week day, everyone returning home, from a long day at work. The music lifted the people’s mood and Vibe.
It’s interesting to know, what music can do to you. I searched on net and got this from Ask.com
Music is considered a universal language because it transcends to all race regardless of any language barrier. The melody of music and the message that it would like to convey go beyond what a typical language can do. Music can communicate effectively to all men around the world. Emotions are a common feeling shared among human beings. Music communicates so many things that every one can understand without having to speak a word. It communicates love, frustration, hatred, war, friendship, commerce, marriage, separation, unity, confusion... etc. Music is a powerful force that can unify or separate people. It can create peace or war. It can be used to bless you or curse you. It can be used to change your mind or make it remain the same. It can be used to make you buy a product or reject it, and even what candidate you will vote for in an election. Music has even been used as money for goods and services. A professional musician rarely needs money. He just performs, and he's got whatever he wants.

This reminds me the power of Music which the sound vibrations are reaching our ears. I am inspired to actually, write a lot more about these things but, I guess I will make it a new, different post.
