This is something that I’ve always wondered. Growing up in the 50’s and 60’s, I heard lots of wonderful movie music. Some of my favorites were “Theme from a Summer Place” “Moon River” from “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” lots of cowboy movie music and of course all the Disney movies that came out during my childhood like “Alice in Wonderland,” “Pinnochio” “Cinderella” “Sleeping Beauty” and “Mary Poppins.”
I adored everything on the Mickey Mouse Club and later “American Bandstand.” All of the above music provided the soundtrack to my childhood and listening to any of it transports me there immediately. It doesn’t necessarily make me wish that I were back there, because I happen to love 2012 too and today’s music, my children, grandchildren, students and friends. But listening to the movie and TV music of my childhood, transports me to a different world faster that any sci-fi time machine ever good.
If I’m feeling worried, sad, overworked or anything negative, I can listen to this music online or just listen to it in my head, and poof! I feel much better and I feel better within 5-10 minutes! Now what else to you know that can do that legally, safely, and for free?? Music is the best medicine and it’s really whatever music affects you in a positive way! Next time you want to change your mood and do it quickly, think of some favorite movies, to to YouTube and listen to songs from that movie. It’s an amazing time to b alive!
I am about to start my guitar lessons. I am just waiting for the Tune-O-Matic Bridges (http://faberusa.com/) I have ordered from an online store. As it is safe to stay at home and I am also able to learn guitar parts. Learning on guitar bridge is very important as it helps me to know about the guitar intonation process. Guitar helps to stay mentally fresh which is very much required in the covid-19 pandemic situation.
