The magic of peppy music

Many of my friends say that they prefer to listen to songs whose lyrics are deep; whose lyrics they can relate to, and understand. They like listening to songs that move their heart. While no one can deny loving slow, deep songs with meaningful lyrics which leave an impact on you, I personally also love songs that are the polar opposite. I like songs that are peppy and upbeat, which can get a lazy or tired person off the couch and onto his feet in just a second.

Lyrics are one of the most important components of a song; however, I believe that they are not the sole defining characteristic of a song. Sometimes all that matters is the instrumental music and the crazy screaming over it. Random unrelated words thrown around here and there, repeated till they're stuck in your head and you can't help but hum the peppy tune to yourself for the next few days. All you need to do is give yourself up to it, and you'll be taken over. It's alright to let your hair down and be a little wild sometimes; not everything you do needs to be profound and make sense!

Party songs have their own charm. They are peppy and they make you feel active and positive, like all your problems have temporarily vanished into thin air for that moment. It helps you let go and dance like no one is watching. If you walked into the gym early morning only to be greeted by the tune of a lover whose heart has been broken or that of a king who has lost his empire, I’m pretty sure it’s going to motivate you more towards going back to sleep rather than sweating it out. Even while driving a car, it’s great to have some peppy songs sometimes to get yourself out of the irritating mood of the traffic jams. It would be so cool if we could sync multiple phones to a host phone and share our music with our friends via a private hotspot network in the car. My friends always complain not being able to play from their phones in my car! That’s one big reason I’m looking forward to the Tata Zica – I have read that the infotainment system in it has precisely that feature.

Honestly, I think lyricists of peppy songs deserve awards; maybe not the mainstream kind, but some sort of an award. It requires some amount of courage to write down whole lines of sentences that mean hardly anything, and even have the confidence to set it into a tune and release it out to the public! They sure have lots of fans though, and I’m definitely going to stay one of those.
