In this hectic world where people are too busy and almost everyone appears to be running out of time to beat all of a day’s list of tasks to do, it seems like it is not the regular course of things that someone will stop for someone on the street. But, this kind lady, Enid Bellamy did. She stopped and had a duet with Andy Marshall on this busy street of the City of Truro, Cornwall.

Have you heard the song Wonderful World sang by Louis Armstrong? Do young people in this generation still appreciate this genre of music? Perhaps, very few can appreciate it but if one focuses on the music and the lyrics of the song, it actually is a wonderful tune. It is that kind of music that communicates with our inner self and throws us into self-retrospection. Then, with a reflective mood, someone will start to appreciate and make an inventory of the wonderful things in his or her life. In short, this kind of music encourages positive energies – focusing on the shining sun rather than the shadow casted on the ground.

While it is true that music preferences are obviously personal, it is also true that music preferences are obviously generational in nature. For this generation, how do you evaluate their preference? Many of those belonging to the old generation believe that this generation tends to choose upbeat music with lots of energy injected in it even if the lyrics is not meaningful. Some are even patronizing songs that they cannot understand its lyrics. Some music videos that go trending have few English words that are comprehensible and the rest are in another language but even those people who do not speak that language love these music videos.

How about you? What is your preference? What is the effect of upbeat music with heavy instrumental accompaniment to you? Will it energize you and make you awake and focused for the day’s work or will it make you stressed and more tired? Perhaps, it depends on what someone needs at particular time of the day – in the morning, an upbeat music will set one for all works to be done and keep his or her energy high during the day but in the evening, a calming, tranquilizing music might be necessary.

Listen to Enid Bellamy while she renders a beautiful performance of well-known song Wonderful World. Certainly, she will spark a positive energy in you. Have a wonderful day in this wonderful world!
