Music, Critical Thinking, and a few Personal Needs






I`m a big fan of music. I especially feel Jazz, Blues, and also Soul and Funk.
A few years back, i noticed i could have a musical comeback to almost every conversation that I had. And it went nicely, entertaining the people I was with.

I`ve discovered the guitar about 4 years ago, and exploring the basic fingerstyle method ( harmonics), 12 bar blues, power chords (think of ACDC) and basically simple tabs of every song that i could think of (and could find online).
This, along with the public speaking journey in a renowned local club, helped me enhance and exercise my vocal variety (pitch, pace, power, pauses), and to teach it to everyone that I`ve been in contact with. All of them combined, with the critical thinking at my job, gave me an ehnanced hearing and argumentation techniques.

Thus, I have a confession to make.
I absolutely love the complexity of this David Guetta song:



   


But why do I like this pop song this much? So I started to write a youtube comment, that I later edited in order to become this post :
"I don`t really need to watch he video in order to enjoy this piece of music. Bebe Rexha.has a great tone of voice.
Also, the xylophone is very rarely used in music nowadays.

The CONTRAST between the roughness (warrior-like) tone of her voice, her vocal variety, (the way she is playing with her voice), her excellent pronounciation AND the monotonous, simple and uplifting song of the xylophone is PURE GOLD. Also, speaking the truth of both sexes, right below or very "ears", in the first part of the song. Men : dressing up the truth (Lying aka mastering the art of words and speech).
Women : dressing up for you (in order to stand out from other women, and to be appreciated, using make-up to look more attractive). In other words she needs to be told the truth, and the name is the purest and most beautiful song that you can hear in your lifetime. In my opinion, by saying "I`m dying to belive you",she tells the man she needs to feel special and meaningful to him.

Off the record, It reminds me of the 5 lOVE LANGUAGES book. In this case it`s the first one (words of affirmation). Saying straightforwardly what you like about the other person.

David Guetta remains a master of music. I`m glad he`s back.. "
And he STILL tailors it to my needs :P.
