The Power of Music

Top 3 Inspirational songs of all time to get you through the catastrophe of  Covid-19

"Music can change the world", said Beethoven, a world renown classical musician of the 1800's. Many lives are an the verge to becoming disastrous. Corona virus has made it self seen, and clear about it's existence to everyone. From the presidents of countries to daily-wage workers. It has taken away countless lives, and the virus continues to do so. Jobs are lost, people are going bankrupt, masses starving, and markets crashing. Doctors and nurses are working day and night trying to keep the patients breathing and alive; professors and scientists creating a vaccine. The world has turned into a havoc, and I believe all someone needs is motivation and inspiration to draw from that we can fight it. An extrovert child who enjoys playing out with his friend, or an employee who has lost his/her job need a ray of light to shine inside the dark tunnel. Here are top 3 songs of all time which can get you back on an upwards path. 

1. Hall of Fame--The Script--This song inspires me very much. It makes me believe that I am capable of doing anything you name if I have the burning desire, it is not a walk in the park but the goal will be achieved. Never give up on your dreams even though god throws many hurdles towards you. Fight for what you believe in. Most importantly believe in yourself and you will excel. It gives you an incentive to work your way up, and get back up from down falls. Corona virus situation is just an obstacle thrown at us, and it should not let us feel worried, because as humans we have the ability to change horrendous situations to a daisy dream, we have the power to fight.

2. Lose Yourself--Eminem--Take an opportunity while you get it, you may only get one shot; however there are costs for everything. Success may be achieved by sacrificing personal relationships, privacy, and character. There is a cost you pay for aiming high, so be sure of what you want. During this corona virus epidemic money is not the only matters, you can build your relationships with loved ones, and it is a blessing in disguise. Always grab an opportunity you get, because we never know what will happen next like the pandemic.

3. Man in the Mirror--Michael Jackson--There are masses in requirement for food, water, shelter, cardinally acceptable sanitation and hygiene. We all can make a difference, we have the ability to the change our surroundings, and the atmosphere we live in. "If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then make a change," are lines from the song which give an overall meaning of the message articulated. If you want to alter your world, change from within you, first.  Start by changing the man in the mirror. This song by the "King of Pop", definitely makes you willing to change the appalling images of people are desperate for aid. You can contribute by donating, or any other benevolent actions.

There are also others. For example, In the End, Linkin Park; I'm Alive, Celine Dion; Fight Song, Rachel Platten; Firework, Katy Perry and many others.

Music remains a medium of communication, and may reflect emotions which you are understanding. The feelings may be arcane but it can be expressed through music, and that is exactly what these musicians have done. Music heals, strengthens, inspires you.
