So many types of &#8220;Music&#8221; all around us, why do you love &#8220;Country Music&#8221; so much? . My answer, as always, is straightforward &amp; to the point. While I love all types of Music, I was born with music in me, an inheritance I humbly thank my God for, &amp; my choice in Music is simple, melodic, and, above everything else, totally unforgettable. There is absolutely no point in listening to a piece of Music, admiring it&#8217;s presentation &amp; then &#8220;forgetting&#8221; the tune, five minutes later.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Also, I am a strictly &#8220;middle of the road&#8221; man, where Music is concerned. Where &#8220;Jazz&#8221; is the theme, I have always preferred &#8220;Trad.Jazz&#8221;. Without any doubt, whatsoever, there are some superb Jazz musicians around, Australian James Morrison being a prime example, but unfortunately, too many so-called Jazz-Musos seem to take well-known &#8220;songs&#8221;(I speak of the Instrumentalists now), superbly &#8220;interpret&#8221; the Music on their particular instruments while, at the same time, garbling a well-known tune into a tangled-up mess of Music. Luckily, this does not happen with Traditional-Jazz. The song played is recognisable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The same goes with &#8220;Heavy-Classics&#8221; in Classical Music. The Music is fine, the &#8220;chords&#8221; generally played are straight out of Music theory books, the tunes, mostly are MOST forgettable, &amp; the &#8221; Pieces&#8221; go on &amp; on, only to be completely forgotten, two minutes later. Piano-Classics are excellent &#8220;sleeping pills&#8221; &amp; are very good aids for insomniacs in the bedroom (played very softly, of course). Still, I love the Classics too. Light-Classics from &#8220;Greats&#8221; like Strauss &amp; Lehar.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Theirs, are examples of beautiful Music, easy to listen to and easy to dance-to, as well, especially Waltz-to.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">For me, Music means &#8220;Memories&#8221;, melodies that pull you, almost forcibly, into a state of mind that enables you to &#8220;remember&#8221; the people &amp; events in your life past, going forward, as we all do. MUSIC is one of the basic ingredients of LIFE. Good, melodic Music makes you &#8220;feel good&#8221;. Many folk might tell you that &#8220;Country Music&#8221; depresses them. I have to disagree. I would categorise Country Music simply as &#8220;The Music of Life&#8221;. Anybody &amp; EVERYBODY faces both good &amp; bad times,happy &amp; sad times in life. The late, great Jim Reeves DID record quite a few &#8220;sad-songs, but he also recorded some very &#8220;happy&#8221; songs like &#8220;Bimbo&#8221; etc., so listen to the great &#8220;voice&#8221; &amp; be happy or sad with Jim. No need to get &#8220;depressed&#8221;, unless you are generally the &#8220;depressed-type.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">My &#8220;Stories in Country Music&#8221; Series commences with a &#8220;chorus&#8221; of a song featured in the &#8220;Country-Genre&#8221; of the 80&#8217;s\/90&#8217;s (my preferred era of these &#8220;Country- Songs&#8221; recorded by various &#8220;Artistes&#8221;) This is what I mean about &#8220;life&#8221;, Clever Lyrics &amp; superb, simple, unforgettable &#8220;numbers&#8221; that I listen to, dozens of times without ever getting fed-up. My readers of e&#8217;Lanka will be able to &#8220;google&#8221; the song in, if they are interested. This will be a &#8220;Series&#8221; in which I hope to convince them that Country-Music is the greatest Music around. Some of the &#8220;examples&#8221; will also be Original Compositions of &#8220;your&#8217;s truly&#8221; which I hope you&#8217;ll enjoy.
