Music influences and impacts the world we live in because for some people music is everything to them and for others it’s a way of expressing their inner true feelings. Music is what drives the soul into new horizons. It’s what brings joy into the dull existence of everyday human life. Music is truly one of the only ways that people can escape their everyday life.…
Music has often been the release for some of our most troublesome times. If you are angry or sad, you go home and out on a song that relates to your feelings, making you feel better. You are free to choose what you want to listen to, which the first amendment guarantees. Also 65% of people in our community like music. There is a huge number of people who enjoy listening to music. Eventually, people listen to music while walking home, work, while there are on the bus, or driving, also even when cooking, or just to relax. Why should we take away something people really enjoy doing?…

Of course, if presented with this contingency, any one of us would declare how horrible this reality would be. Why then, do we hear about citizens and organizations fearfully protesting the apparently-so-inalienable right to express ourselves though music.…
Music is everywhere in our life. It's an important part of our culture. So why are music programs being cut from school? Music education may seem unimportant, but that is far from the truth. Music is important because the music taught in schools whether they are classical or fairly recent, help in learning as well! Music affects the brain to somehow learn faster and more efficiently. This has actually been done by physicist Dr. Harvey Bird from Fairleigh Dickinson University and neurobiologist Dr. Gervasia Schreckenberg from Georgian Court College in Lakewood. They used mice and a maze. They would have three sets of mice. One had to listen to voodoo music, the second had to listen to classical music, and the last did not have…

Euthanasia the assisted killing of a terminal patient is a controversial topic that medical professionals cannot avoid. Many health professionals face the ethical dilemma of whether or not they should end a patient’s misery.

All throughout the world there are many different genres of music being played and listened to at all time of day. Music has a way of distracting people, making them forget about the world and just focus on what makes them happy. Each person has their own taste in music, the music that makes them happy. Therefore, the songs of the world have defiantly shaped our culture. Would our culture be the same without it? Most people would say “no” because music is a huge part of our culture and without it the idea of fun would be totally different. Many people listen to the same music resulting in bringing a community together to raise a better culture. Music has always been a part of mankind because every beat contributes to the tune of the song, doesn’t matter if it came from a stick tapping on the dirt or the notes coming from an instrument. The Beatles, an iconic band in the music world, made it easier for other artists like Michael Jackson and Beyoncé with their experimenting in the mid 1960s. Throughout centuries music has changed drastically to the present day, evolving slowly from the beginning. Whether we look at the past, present or future generation one thing is definite; each generation has something valuable to offer to the music industry.…
What if you were told that you could no longer listen to your favorite song anymore because the message that it sends does not conform to someone else’s way of thinking? What reasons are given for the censoring of music, or why have musicians been tortured, jailed, exiled or even killed? Why have certain forms of music been silenced? Music is an expression of ideas and emotions that reflect hopes, dreams and aspirations not only for the artist creating the music but in the listener as well. Music has been used as a form of expression of thoughts and emotions for centuries. People in power sometimes view these expressions conflicting to their current way of thinking what is proper lyrical content or negating to current governing practices. The implementation of music censorship has been done by governments, religions, educational systems and even families. In most cases this censorship is a violation of international conventions of human rights, (Freemuse.org). George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950), said “All censorships exist to prevent anyone from challenging current conceptions and existing institutions. All Progress is initiated by challenging current conceptions, and executed by supplanting existing institutions. Consequently the first condition of progress is the removal of censorships.” (Freemuse.org). Although music censorship is imposed for various reasons, music is a form of artistic expression and censorship violates the artist 's human right of expression.…
Censorship of music is the practice of restricting free access to musical works. This censorship may stem from a wide variety of motivations, including moral, political, military or religious reasons. Censorship can range from the complete government-enforced legal prohibition of a musical work, to private, voluntary removal of content when a musical work appears in a certain context. In order to allow songs to be played wherever possible, it is common to censor particular words, particularly profanities. Some music labels or artists produce censored versions themselves, sometimes with alternative lyrics, to comply with the rules set by various radio and television programs. But is this necessary? Would censoring music now be innovative or post-modern?…
Freedom of speech and expression are two of the mainstays that make up the very fabric of this country. Music is a form of speech that gives the artist a platform to relay their message or opinion on any given topic they choose. When tragic events happen certain songs are viewed as insensitive and in return receive no radio time or video play. By banning music containing information pertaining to the tragic event, does the tragic event disappear? The First Amendment to our Constitution allows us freedom of speech and press provided we do not violate any other laws in the process. As we shall see, there are no laws providing for music censorship.…
As I said above, music certainly has so many positive impacts and power. The sound, messages, activities and artists’ attire directly impact on listeners and society in powerful ways. Sometimes, it could be negative also. Some lyrics have become explicit to drugs, sex and violence. It has significant impacts on behavior, mood and lifestyle too. Some rap music has sexual and abusive language as well as message of violence and racism. Drug, tobacco and alcohol use also tend to be glorified in these songs. Some studies have shown that there is a correlation between bad behavior and negative music contents. In some song album, alcoholic theme has been showing with drugs, which have profoundly impact on youth’s lifestyle and people blindly follow these artists that can lead to some detrimental effects on their lives, health and behavior. Rap music videos can illustrate glamorous and dangerous fantasies of wealth and sex appeal. The people who listen violent and aggressive music, tend to be more violent in their life. The most famous instance in which music has been blamed for violent acts was the Columbine shootings, in Littleton, Colorado in which 12 were killed and 24 were injured. In addition, more car accidents have been noted due to aggressive and fast pace music played in cars. The high end cars, party, girls, lifestyle and many more things which have been showing in the music videos can lead society in negative way and people sometimes get addicted to those things that could impact psychologically on their…

The Zika Virus has spread through parts of the world by the bite of a mosquito and sexual intercourse. The illness is not severe enough to be sent to a hospital, therefore it is difficult to determine if a person has contracted it. Babies and adults can suffer dramatically from the Zika virus: babies can be born with the defect microcephaly, an abnormal smallness of the head due to the incomplete development of the brain; and an adult can obtain the syndrome Guillain-Barre, where the body’s immune system attacks the nerves, eventually paralyzing the body. People should not travel to the Rio Olympics for the reason of the risk of transferring the virus as well as endangering little children and themselves.…
