Music affects us all but differently

In general, I like listening to different kind of music but mostly pop. Music is the next topic for this 30-day writing challenge. Read more about it here.

I have read somewhere that those who grew up listening to religious/Christians songs tend to like country songs too and that is true at least to me. One factor also is that country music is loved by us here in the Cordilleras. I'm actually listening to country songs right now after I have listened to some Gaither Vocal Band songs. GVB is one of the Christian groups that is my go to whenever I am in the mood. I particularly like David Phelps voice, my favorite tenor. Of course Dimash is the superior of them all. He is of another level though. Nothing compares to him.

I think only the Cordillerans are the majority who listens to country music here in the country. That is one of the influence that was left by the Americans. The Americans occupied the country before. They even set up a country club here in the city for the climate here is conducive and it's something to be desired as a respite from the tropical heat. It's close to home.

Having said that, the generation now are more influenced by the introduction/invasion of Korean culture. The accessibility of music brought about by technology and internet allows the younger generation to have a myriad of choices out there.

I am not that updated to what is new these days in terms of music or who are the big names now in country music. The accessibility of music also brought about the proliferation of talented artists. Some are only after the good looks of others. I respect that. That's your choice so all is good.

Because of many choices, it's a tough competition out there. The race now is through effective marketing and branding. We tend to stick more to what we like which is good because we can continue to stay on that lane. We have the choice. However, the internet filters through our preferences and feeds us what we like. This would then ignore the other talented artists out there. Also, we can now easily skip what we don't like. We don't have that patience anymore to really listen to songs.

And I am found guilty.

That finds me staying on those that I am familiar with. Still, we have our own preference. What is good music to me may not be your cup of tea.

Talking about choices, Kacy01 wrote about this post. You only have to choose two pills.

I do like food. I mean who doesn't? Sounds like an easy choice. I would like to keep on eating without gaining weight. However, I would pass on that.

I am okay with my height. I am of average height. I don't have a need for additional height. Not unless I want to be an athlete where I can utilize a taller height. I do wish sometimes that I am a little taller but 5 cm doesn't seem a big impact. So it's a no for me.

I don't like reading minds as I have already stated before not even for three days or one day or one minute. I don't know what I will do with the information that I get to read. Is it something I will be comfortable with or not? Also, I respect privacy. Reading the thoughts of others is an invasion of privacy and I feel that I am taking that right away from someone.

Forget my ex. What ex? :D

To become super strong, I wonder where would I will use my strength. Is it in terms of physical strength or mental strength? There will always be something or somewhere we can use either one. I think having a strong mental health will make me always happy and happiness will make me long younger. So, yes to super strong mental health or physical strength. I can make money out of that and surely give me millions of followers. I guess that is one pill that will give me a lot more.

Final choices, become super strong and always feel happy.

I feel like being strong will give me opportunities to help others more. I can demonstrate my strength and have that documented and upload it online. That in return will hopefully give me millions of followers which would then help me earn a lot of money. We all know how much youtubers gain especially if you have lots of followers.

How is your day/night so far?

I just finished writing my Garahe blog in hive. You can check it here.

I'm curious as to why they named it Garahe. There must be a reason behind naming a Japanese restaurant Garahe.

I am also close to finishing this fiction novel that I have started reading last year. I used to read one book in one sitting. Now, I can't even finish one chapter lol! After posting this, I will finish the book. It's already the exciting part as it gets closer to the end. I already have another book that I plan to read after this.

Blogging and reading is my Sunday plan. It's only the middle of the day. Maybe something else will come up later on. If not, then I hope I can get back to visiting you all later.

Have a good one!
