The Power of Music

Photo by: Luiz Fernando / Sonia Mari
Music is such a powerful art. It is so powerful, Bob Marley believed he "could cure racism and hate, literally cure it by injecting music and love into people's lives."

Bob Marley was so involved in his music, the day he was supposed to perform at a concert he was shot, two days later he walked out on stage and sang. Somebody asked him, why he would you perform so early after being shot, he responded famously by saying, "The people who are trying to make the world worse never take a day off, why should I? Light up the darkness."

He was a true legend his  the 20th century, his music will forever be remembered. He was an amazing artist  and wanted everyone to live in peace and happiness. He lived so he could "light up the darkness."

  1. Music is the only thing that makes my mood come and go easy. I see music as my key to happiness. I have different variety of music moods. 21st Century Pop/rap when I am happy and not being upset of over something. 60's - 90's when its ok, and things are ok. When I'm depressed, oldies are the only things I listen to. So I see music as my #1 Key to being successful and happy. I love to listen to music when I read and to do homework. I think music runs in my family....
