Assignment #7

Watching the music video for "Hello World" by Lady Antebellum, I found really sad and at some parts it made me cry. My thoughts on the song were similar to the scenes portrayed in the video but then at other times they were different. Everyone has their own ideas and opinions on how they see things laid out. I feel that certain songs or lyrics should be acted out but not all of them. I think having your own interpretation to the song and then seeing someone else's helps you stay open-minded to others thoughts and makes you realize that you shouldn't shut down other people's views on things just because they're different from your own. I feel that if you act out music it helps display the message and the emotion to the words to give you a deeper meaning and a better connection to the song. Depending on the type of music, but I think in a way all music is used for at least one person's own escape whether it be the artist or the person listening. Music can help us uplift our spirits or help us realize that our actions are good or bad. Having music in one's life is a great thing because it let's us know that we aren't the only one's going through that particular scenario, that someone else is feeling the same thoughts that you are.
