Dear music lovers,
For the next couple weeks I'll be posting songs and I'll explore them thoroughly. Music to certain people mean nothing but a beat. To me music is more. Music is my lifeline.
Today, my song choice is Emancipate by Ashes of Soma a song I recently found a very deep liking for. Ashes of Soma is an alternative canadian band originally from Windsor, Ontario. My hometown. The reason why I'm so addicted to this well thought out piece of art is because I truly enjoy the placement of instruments in the song, the lyrics are well thought out and have a lot of emotion built in it. The meaning of the song depends on the listener of the song. To me it seems like whoever wrote it was starting to feel fed up with everything & couldn't handle anymore. Hence the lyrics " Remember the time that I waste it's all the same just hate the way it seems Carry all this weight on my shoulder I'll tear this all apart " It seems like he's giving up.

I like your blog choice and I like how you put the definition of the title it helped better my understanding of the song. I can relate to you when you said "To me music is more. Music is my lifeline" . To a lot of people music is more then a beat, it`s a way to relate to the artist and even explains stuff that`s hard to express for yourself...
