Is Music Therapy? 
In my case it is. It is a gateway into my soul. Good, bad days or happy and sad moods, there is music “composed to fit”. It can help autistic children express themselves in ways they cannot do without the aid of rhythm and music. Country Music Lyrics, Gospel music, rock and Indian music are just a few types of popular music that can ignite your inner being.
Without effort, some folks have the natural knack of memorizing music, while others enjoy the beat and rhythm. You can find a darkened room and get into a relaxing mood by listening to your favorite song titles. It can be uplifting and therapeutic. It is the key to countless human emotions.
Not all Music is Created Equal.
For example music that is derived from the heart has proven to capture larger audiences repeatedly. People seem to get more pleasure from the emotions that go into a song compared to songs that are composed without the heart in mind.
At times I find myself at the corner pub acting out my fantasy of a rock star. Connecting myself to karaoke tracks puts me into a different mindset. In the moments of my stardom all my worries, anxieties and concerns disappear. I am in the spot-light–a rock and roll star. There is no feeling like it. Eventually reality sets in and I am back to planet earth, realizing that I am not really Gene Simmons in the “Detroit Rock City” :-).
