What with the parting of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett on the same day lead me to question the importance that music has in everyone within life.
We can all admire a great actor/ actress but a musician it seems has such an impact within our lives and music holds everlasting memories.
It was not until today I have realised that I have been more moved over the parting of music icons like Freddy, John Lennon, Michael Jackson etc even though I have not always followed their music, more than the parting of an actor / actress that yes I have felt a sad loss for, but hasn’t hit me like the parting of the above.
I don’t cry but feel a loss has happened.
Maybe it is more mourning what they still had to offer.
So does music have more of an affect on our lives than we realise at the time?

Does music have an everlasting hold on us?
I think music pinpoints things in our own historys.
On a Sunday we didnt watch tv, we had the stereogram on and listened to Radio 1`s Top 20, I remember Bohemian Rhapsody the first time round, songs i hear now remind me of my childhood, certain songs remind me of going to the fair and being spun on the waltzers til you`re nearly sick
They remind me of my first love, of having my children, songs that make you cry because they were poignant to you at the time.
Songs have rallied troops to war and kept their spirits up.
You can say anything in a song, music is a very powerful medium.

I think that music is an integral part of our our evolution it has served us as a means of communication (it still does in the animal world) and with the development of the modern brain and language has taken a new role. Perhaps we have refined it as our cultural sense has developed over time.
Steven Mithen's The SINGING NEANDERTHALS (The origins of music, language,mind and body) is a good read on the subject.
