-this is not a story about music-
I love that melody. Since the first time I heard that sweet piano instrument, I have been listening to it over and over again. When I searched on youtube, I found some versions of that melody and it is actually a soundtrack of an old movie. And it was actually just today when I tried to find out more about that song. So, it was real romantic movie, kind of movie with that kind of soundtrack, and the taglines are about drama, romance and fantasy...yes, fantasy, something that is not real.
On the youtube I noticed there is a version with the lyric. So it is not really instrumental music as there is another version with lyric. But, I decided not to try that one, the one with the lyric. I do not know how the lyric sounds like or what story is told in the lyric. The main reason why I do not want to listen to the lyric because I do not want it changes the feeling I have on this melody, if the lyric does not “go” with the melody. The lyric then could make damage in that sweet music. So I think I really enjoy the melody and the melody only, without the lyric and I think there is no good enough words to describe the sweetness I feel from listening to this melody.
Sometimes I think the melody does not always go with the lyric. The melody of a song can totally change the feeling of a song. In fact the melody determine whether the song nice or sweet or “hard” or “noisy”. I don’t really know it is the melody that makes a good song or it is the lyric or both. I don’t want to discuss it either. However, this instrumental music is just so sweet. Period.
Maybe someday, I will have my courage or my “ignorance” to listen to the other version, the one with the lyric. When it does not really matter whether the lyric goes with the melody or not.
Sometimes, things that are not good for us feel good in the moment. Sometimes people don't see the damage they're doing…
