Where words fail, music speaks


Music is your life WHERE WORDS FAIL, MUSIC SPEAKS

By Erin, Nguyen

1. Let’s begin with the first part: How music itself affects human development
Music has a part in human development

It becomes too familiar to everyone since we were born, all words which our mother sang to make us sleep well, cut deep in our memories of childhood that we were never forgotten it

When we firstly went to school, we had been taught to sing the praise beautiful sceneries of our country, the praise of laborers and cherish the friendship, so music also affects and brings us education very deeply

When we grow up, we always like songs of love, party or revolutionary tradition, it arouses (đánh thức, gợi) our will to strive for building our country richer, stronger

2. Therefore, with all these things above, we can see that people use music as a way of human communication – connecting people. According to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, music can be nonverbal, though it is often mixed with a person or persons singing, making a form of mixed communication. Music tends to be less explicit in terms of the message conveyed than verbal communication. In fact, music is a kind of communication, the mediator of human relationships, but it has been a question what music wants to express? Have you ever thought about this question before?
The answer is: Music is to express emotion, happiness, love and everything in the world
If you have music in your heart, you can communicate with people anywhere in the world. Music has no boundaries. When there's music there is mutual respect, and people, no matter what their background, feel as one

Today, we can listen to music by all means of communication such as: TV, radio, internet, etc with all kinds of music like: rock, pop, rap, rock and roll, instrumental music, etc

Can you imagine if our life without music? So horrible, right
Without music life would be very boring and hopeless, without music the world would indeed be a very dull to live in

3. So, that brings me to the last part of my presentation: What music brings to human’s life?
I take the view that listening to music is useful in the daily life; music is one of the best ways to make our life happier because music has been
- tranfer us the better thoughts and wonderful feelings
- giving us the both innocent and profound emotions
- bringing us the romantic and beautiful world
- encouraging us whenever we are down
- reminding us a simple reality that life is always beautiful

That’s why people seem to send or sing a song to their friends, lover, and relatives instead of saying how much they care.
- Let take some simple examples, if your friend lost their way, what can you do to make that person recover their confidence, at that time, when words are impossible, please give your friend a song that expresses it all. Let’s hear this song
- Or a song to wish and congratulate someone
- If you don’t know to express how much you love someone, music also helps you that

These songs are just one of millions ways which music itself can express. Via this, we see that music can communicate well than human in many necessary cases. So, it is clear that where words fail, music still speaks because music shares with us emotions, happiness, sadness, troubles and everything in life. Music can tell exactly what we think, feel and want

So let the music heal your soul….

Everything in life should be taken care of and enjoy for what it is. Therefore, when your words don’t seem enough to say how much you feel, please give your love ones a song that says it all

In conclusion, we have just gone through 3 main points of the presentation. It’s hard to deny that music is important for people’s happiness. Music removes people’s depression and fills them with gladness. My presentation just focuses on a small room of music, but I hope that it partly helps you remind that: life is so beautiful because of music, music is your friend, your life and where words fail, music speaks. We are non-stop learning persons so nothing can hinder us to make music better and better by cultivating knowledge everyday.

Uniquely You- Wendi Koh


Wonderful songs,

This song is about those special moments shared together, in special places with special people. It’s about those memories that eternally have a place in one’s heart and that always remind you how unique life is. Singapore is one such place, a place that’s always kept us safe and warm – with the hope, joy and smiles of your loved ones, and the comfort that you will always have them by your side. It’s a song about you, or the place, maybe both…and a celebration that’s Uniquely You.” Ken Low, Songwriter – Uniquely You.

Uniquely you...

There's a place in my heart
That I keep for someone special
Memories forever true to me
Take me through those tougher days

Suddenly I found in you
All the joy, the smiles and laughter
All the hope and love divine
Always you - you on my mind

I always knew - there would be the day
When I give my heart away
To the one who'll always keep me safe and warm
If I should go - I won't ever forget
The special days, the times we had
And no matter what - whether winds of change
You will always be - Uniquely you...

...In my heart
Where I keep my little treasure
It's a time I always turn to
It's the place where you're by my side
I always knew - there would be the day

When I give my heart away
To the one who'll always keep me safe and warm
If I should go - I won't ever forget
The special days, the times we had
And no matter what - whether winds of change
You will always be - Uniquely you

There's a place in my heart
That I keep for someone special
It's a time I always turn to
It's the place where you're by my side
You're the special one - my only
'Cos it's you - Uniquely You

You raise me up - Josh Gorban

Wonderful song and meaningful lyric
A moral strength that each ordinary wording brings....
...full of emotion...How great it is!!!

Enjoy the song

You raise me up (J...

"You Raise Me Up"

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

Extreme ways - Bourne Ultimatum OST


extreme ways - mob...


Lyric:
Extreme ways are back again
Extreme I didn't know
I broke everything new again
Everything that I'd owned
I threw it out the windows, came along
Extreme ways i know move apart
The colors of my sea
Perfect color me

Extreme ways that that hepl me
Help me out at night
Extreme places had gone
But never seen any light
Dirty basement, dirty noise
Dirty places coming through
Extreme worlds alone

I would stand in line for this
There's alway room in life for this

Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart,fell apart
Oh baby,oh baby
Then it fell apart,fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Like it always does, always does

Extreme songs that told me
They helped me down every night
I didn't have much to say
I didn't get above the light
I closed my eyes and closed myself
And closed my world and never opened
Up to anything
That could that could get me along

I had to close down everything
I have to close down my mind
Too many things to cover me
Too much can make my blind
I've seen so much in so many places
So many heartaches, so many faces
So many dirty thing
You couldn't belive
I would stand in line for this
It's always good in line for this

Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Like it always does, always does.
