Application Prompt #3: What Captivates You?

Every note, every beat, every lyric has the power to transport me to a place where emotions are heightened, memories are relived, and the world feels a little bit more magical. Music is my sanctuary, my escape, and the soundtrack to my life's journey. When I'm feeling unmotivated or down, I turn to my favorite songs, like BAD TIME and Rock Wit U, which never fail to lift my spirits and reignite my passion for the day ahead.

Music captivates me in a way that nothing else can; it's my go-to source for motivation and a booster for my mood. I find myself immersed in the melodies and rhythms, feeling a deep connection with the emotions conveyed through each song. When I want to learn more about music, I turn to online platforms like Apple Music and Spotify, where I explore new genres and artists. I also enjoy reading articles and watching documentaries that delve into the stories behind the music and what inspired artists to write songs with the lyrics they did. These resources not only broaden my musical horizons but also deepen my appreciation for the art form and puts songs into more perspective when listening. Whether it's discovering a new favorite song or understanding the context of a song, my pursuit of musical knowledge is a continuous journey that enriches my life in countless ways.

Whether I’m delving into the stories behind my favorite songs or discovering new rhythms, music continues to captivate and inspire me, enriching my life in ways that words can hardly capture.
