music and my life

Asking me to only pick 10 of the 14,000 songs i have on my computer is like asking me to find a needle in haystack. Asking me to pick 10 that explain who i am is even an even more outrageously impossible task. I could start off by telling you that my name is ben and that I love music; But keep in mind thats just a start. That alone is nowhere near enough to explain my feelings for music. When I hear a great song, there is something inside me that wakes up and fills me up with emotions i couldn’t imagine living without. For instance some songs can fill me with excitement and happiness like “Golddust” “Mutfakta” or “Atom”. When I hear these songs, I cant help but liven up my mood as well as the moods of those who surround me. No matter where I am, I will radiate happiness on to others, even a crowded subway. On the other hand, there are songs that evoke deep and intense emotions of sadness or just put me into a trance of deep thought. I didn’t add these songs to my list because I wanted this to be a happy post. However, I did throw a few songs that send me off into a trance of deep thought. Songs like “Bistro Fada”, “Stay Young Go Dancing”, and “Crazy” do just that. When I listen to them, I feel like im in my own world and I can asses myself and think deeply about my goals in life and where I want to see myself in 5,10,15 years from now. My music makes me who I am. Basically, I am a giant library of over 14,000 songs and I cannot descibe to you who I am in a 1000 page blog post. If you want to know more about me, ull just have to get to know me in person.

  1. Hey Nahmani I never knew that you listen to such music… I’ve always thought that you mostly listen to club songs (well with the exception of some Hebrew ones)….but I guess there is a side to you that I’m yet to discover 🙂 I’m sure that you will keep surprising me with your amazing and interesting personality! I also love the way you described the feelings and emotions you get from music… I can relate to what you said.. It’s so astonishing how powerful lyrics can be sometimes, and how they can swing your mood in seconds!

    I love the songs you picked…I knew some of them but others I heard for the first time just now… as i always say there is too much good music and too little time to explore and listen to it all.. :]]]

  2. Thank god u like skrillex!!! I also like the fact that your ten songs varied in genre – it says a lot, you’re a mixed bag (in a good way). I dont know what else to say other than i’m glad i know more about you. You are definitely destined to become a DJ.
