Quality Music Transcends Languages; It's about the Vibe

So I had been listening to this Youtube Channel for some time where Artistes only have 1 shot at singing a song so there are no retakes and the place where it takes place is all white. So it is only just the Artist's voice and the band's instruments.

The microphone that was used to record is also unbelievably clear and the Artist's emotion really shine through. Of course not all the videos are great as sometimes the direction with the song was different from the OG and there were some Artistes with small mistakes. Generally, the better the Singer the nice the song turns out.  

Sometimes Cat don't get it when I like to listen to Korean and Japanese Songs when I don't speak or understand the language. In all actually, even Mandarin songs I also don't fully get to hear and understand all the words haha. To me, it's all about the vibe I guess, the clarity and the tonality of the music that really speaks to me. It's like when a certain key or note is played, then get my emotions flowing. The icing on the cake will be the lyrics that match the songs.

I think most people like songs that they understand with the lyrics and all. To me, good music definitely can change the vibe , uplift spirits and connect people together.

Updates

Suppose to be blogging more frequent since am unemployed but boy does time flies( have to start tracking what I do on a day to day basis like what Sam says).

Since left my job in end of April, probably went through an adjustment phase in May and also took the time to complete The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It is truly a masterpiece, never have I played a game that I would say its 10/10. Has great storyline and side quests and the best thing is that there is no 1 fixed way to solve any of the puzzles and that includes the main storyline.

Usually I don't really finish most games like Pokemon Arceus to name a few. Though I did complete the Monster Hunter Series Main storyline but it was like never like a fully complete. So for TotK, it really feel like it and the music that accompanies the story was fantastic. Truly the best game till date. So this game took up most of May and June.

July and August is probably something that I started to do other things like scheduling 2 times exercise per day and also been watching on investment videos and also picking up a bit more baking skills( I can do pretzel and scones now=))

Of which, End of June and End of August was when I was more busy because the in-laws ( in End of June) and army friends (in End of August) came down under so I had to spend time with them so I wasn't doing much reading and exercising then. 

I guess this post is more about an update and not too much on my inner thoughts which I still tend to contend with. Will come to that another time.
