World Without Strangers..

i remember in 2006, there was an event by I-Do Music in New Era College, and i helped out as one of the committees.. we all bought a shirt from Giordano which has "World Without Strangers" embleded on it. it is a cool shirt, and it showed the determination of I-Do Music to reach out to all audiences, because "there is no boundaries" in music. the shirt was a "white" one, and here is an example of the shirt.. which is modeled by a few reknown Korean artists. ^^


it is true eh? there's no boundaries in music. everywhere we go, everyone understands music. i believe every living thing knows music as well. it is just how you enjoy the music that is different. when we talk abt music, there comes rhythm.. how can one imagine a world without rhythm? whenever it's raining, there are rhythm everywhere the rain falls on. whenever you get near a construction site, there are rhythm too.. the rhythm of the workers doing their job. it's an internal rhythm, but it exist. everyone has their own internal rhythm. fast or slow.. there is rhythm when we talk.. okay, back to talking about music. i am not someone who can tell you about music history, theory or whatever, but i know one simple theory- music bring us all together.

walking in shopping malls, with the background track playing, people starts to walk in rhythm, some even start dancing a little (i do that all the time).. music moves us. whereever we go. it is so magical isn't it? we all share the same "instinct", sensitive to rhythm and sound. the moment where music ties all crowd together is the most amazing thing. sharing that one moment, and when the music stops, the crowd dispersed back to their own lives. that's why sometimes we call it "the magical moment", when a couple met under the circumstances of enjoying the same song and tapping to the same rhythm, and at that moment they "clicked". such magical moment music can bring. ^^ *lost in thought*

  1. Hi there, been here. Nice blog.

    Yea agree, I've even heard HK canto music playing when I was in Hanoi, Vietnam last July. Apparently, HK and Taiwanese as well as Korean and Japanese artistes are popular even in Vietnam. The Vietnamese even sing these songs as they are at Karaokes.
