"Music is a total constant. That's why we have such a strong visceral connection to it, you know? Because a song can take you back instantly to a moment, or a place, or even a person. No matter what else has changed in your or the world, that one song says the same, just like that moment."
- Just Listen
We all have that one memory, that jumps out when we hear a certain song.
That one memory that is so much brighter than any other in our mind.
The song plays and you feel every emotion you felt when you first heard it.
The scents that you had once smelled, you smell them once more.
Intoxicating is the memory, to which you're taken back.
It doesn't matter what has changed since that moment occurred.
Your life could have taken a drastic turn, you could have been
insanely happy at that moment in time, and that same happiness
is brought to you once more. Everything changes, but music remains the same.
Music is my life for this very reason.
I love change, even if I'm afraid of it.
But, I need something in my life that will always stay the same.
Like a moment that can't be changed, ever.
You can't change history, you can only learn from it.
Same with music, you can't change it.
You can only learn from it.
You can only listen.
