The power of music
I went to the Kanye West concert this past saturday and i was truly blown away. Millions of people sink hundreds of dollars to go to concerts and buy cds. Music runs this world, the majority of ads and propoganda involve music. Many times, bands are used as a funraiser for help in stuggling areas. An effective fundraiser, music is a huge part of everyones life. Hidden messages are imbedded in music. So much of our lives are wired through music and we dont even know it. Sometimes it makes me wonder if any type of brainwashing is occuring. How much impact does music really have on a person?

The great thing about music is that there are so many different kinds of music to choose from. People can have favorite genres, artists, albums, or songs. So, instead of brainwashing, people can listen to music that agrees with what they think. Music may help further views, but I don't think it instills brand new unfounded ones.
when you say that music runs the world i kinda really disagree with this. I dont think it runs anything, more inspires people. It is a way of collective individual expression in a way, not really something that runs people.
