A form of music has existed for over centuries with each century modernizing the tunes of art. It is undoubtedly known that music, even the smallest of acoustic noise, has the essence of joy, sadness, and anger. Music feeds the soul, no matter the day, time, or season, and is fit for all of the emotions of the hungry.
The essence of joy is music that makes you want to dance barefoot in the sand of a warm summer night, slide around the hallways of your house with a hairbrush for a microphone, and scream on the top of your lungs with the wind blowing through your hair cruising with the windows down. It is the most pure form of enlightenment. It is Justin Timberlake.
The essence of sadness is music that has you face down in a bucket of cookies n' cream ice cream at 2am on a Thursday night, sobbing on the floor of your kitchen at midnight, and walking in broad daylight with puffy eyes and pajamas. It is the most raw form of despair. It is Adele.
The essence of anger is music that forces you to hit that PR in the gym, scream their name at Taylor Swift lyrics aggressively aimed at them, and box the sunshine out of the punching bag in the cold, concrete garage in the middle of Winter. It is the jamboree of blood, sweat, and tears. It is Metallica.
Music is the everyday society equivalent of expression and will ultimately provide the best gift of cope that no amount of silence can compare to. People turn to the tunes of relatability in hopes of receiving comfort, whether that is joy, sadness, or anger; it tends to the souls who are in desperate need of a friend, as music fills that role.
