There is Luigi Marchitelli, whose music sounded like heaven! The link directs you to his Facebook page. I haven't listened to much classical music. I only recently heard Beethoven's 7th Symphony (2nd Movement, Allegretto) because it's part of The Fall's soundtracks. It was really captivating. I just wish that I knew how to play a musical instrument. I don't know much about music, apart from which ones are among my favourites. I usually find it hard to try new music as there's this fear of not liking it and having to try some other tracks to find a nice one. Yeah, non-resilient me...
While Youtube-ing today I came across some of my old time favourites. I think it's true that the first time you listen to a good song, you'll always remember where and when you heard it, and how you felt at that time, whenever you hear it again. I listened to To the Moon and Back by Savage Garden and recalled that I was on holidays the first time I had heard it. I did not know that I had it on my music player, I was just randomly playing some songs because my cousin and my sister had fallen asleep, and I couldn't sleep at all (we weren't at home). I liked it so much that I put it on Repeat.
Another "oldie" (according to me), La Tribu de Dana by Manau, which is really catchy. I listened it so long ago (I'm only nineteen, but, still) that I can't remember anything about my first time. But, I know that my Dad would sing it all the time.
Yesterday, while returning home from the university, I was listening to the soundtracks of Tron: Legacy and it just occurred to me that nothing ever feels like music, maybe not even true happiness. I think it's just one of those miracles that we always witness and it never ceases.
