And the weekend begins!

I heard of this event happening tonight, i know this might be coming at you a li'l too late, but i figure its worth checking out! Its called "Night out with the arts", its a show put together by SPAN, Society For The Performance Arts In Nigeria. Its supposed to have art on display, music and comedy. I'll be there and hopefully it will be a fantastic way to start the weekend. Either way i'll let y'all know how it goes! here's to keeping my fingers crossed and having a blast... xoxo

The point is......

From the need to give more meaning to my life outside the work and relationship routine, was the idea of Muse & Music born. I had always thought of starting a music blog since music is the only thing i'm really passionate about, but i kept thinking, who would join? what would i write? would it be engaging enough? and the questions went on. I mean, i cant hold down a steady relationship with a human being so what gives me the nerve to think i can hold down one with my laptop and the human beings who might be unfortunate enough to join me? I would without a doubt bore them to tears at an alarming rate as i have already begun to do, as being witty has never been my strongest point! Yet, i went ahead, and now i have a blog, with four followers, its not much but its still my blog and my followers. I guess i dont know how this will end, i might stop after a couple weeks because the lack of followers might become depressing, i might actually get more followers or i might not and not care anyway, because i find i actually enjoy doing this, followers or not. The thing is, we never know how things will go and we'll never know until we do something. Point is, do something and enjoy it for as long as it lasts, and oh, dont forget to keep your fingers crossed and pray about it!
Love always...xoxo

Goodbye, Da Grin.

It is always so sad to lose one so young and in their prime. It is with a sad and heavy heart that i say goodbye to one of Naija's upcoming and talented artiste, Da Grin. Rest in peace brother...


Light a Candle

Light a candle, it'll help to remind you
Of your time together on earth,
and as the flame flickers, remember
His kindness, his goodness, his worth.
So, glow little candle, that briefly,
You'll know that his memory can't die,
As you see his face in the glowing,
Shed a tear, say a prayer, then goodbye.

Quotes

And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that infest the day
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs
And as silently steal away.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Day Is Done

Hello my baby!

I am in absolute shock, i am still reeling! My best friend sent me a message yesterday and it read: hello my baby, r u sleeping baby, i'm outside baby.... i was rather alarmed, but, the message continued: ...and so it goes from Julius Agwu's new attempt at music, can you imagine what music has become! I had a good laugh but refrained from making any comment until i had heard the song myself. I have and i must say that not only is it ridiculous, but it makes a mockery of those who actually take the time to create good lyrics or find good songwriters. Its obviously not enough to make a nice looking video, content counts for quite a lot. I'll take a song that has great lyrical content and depth, with a not so quality video anyday, over a good looking video with no depth whatsoever to the song! Personally, i think Julius the Genius should stick to comedy, which he's quite the genius at. If you haven't seen the video, scroll down to the youtube link and search for Julius Agwu's Hello Baby and share what u think! Afterall, i might be a bit biased!

Music, an aphrodisiac?

Music has been known to act as an aphrodisiac. People tend to forget that human senses are powerful reactors and can trigger emotions. Imagine the last sad song you heard and how it made you want to cry. You probably felt depressed afterwards. That is because music can affect human emotion. Music can create moods of sadness and depression (what did you listen to after a bad break-up?), happiness, manic energy, and even love and desire. Try sitting on a couch with your loved one with the lights turned down and a romantic song playing on the stereo. Just wait and see if the mood doesn’t turn romantic.

After about 10 years of being away, its good to have Sade back, but really, has she still got it or has the time away been cruel to her? There's a lot of competition, and i wonder, has she got what it takes?

For the love of music
