You're on the right track, Gil. Seems to me that good music
transcends the effects of time and gravity. Music can and should be
used to draw people together, not alienate them.
Wouldn't the world be a bit nicer if people spent more time
discussing what they have in common instead of fighting over petty
differences? And isn't music a natural start, since it predates
the spoken word?
One need not be just like you to share your likes and dislikes. If
you're willing to open your mind to their ideas, you may just learn
something new! As a female non-musician who's over 22, you may not
think I'd enjoy this list at all. But I feel I learn something
every time I check my messages, and hopefully one day I'll be able to
contribute something useful in return!
Peace,
