We all are born naked, the rest is Drag
Music shapes our lives. Whether we liked it or not, it does. That’s why every sport club have songs, every politician use uplifting songs before a rally or every single product advertised on TV have a jingle song. It sends a subliminal message, and those messages will eventually push us to buy the product. So, when it comes to music, there’s always songs and musicians that shape our lives. A song can encourage you to do that little project you have been leaving for later, or make you say yes to that guy that have been calling you for weeks asking for a date, if you are a romantic like I am.

Minnie Riperton: Spring is Here
I like songs that surprise you. I love nothing more than something unexpected happening, when a track takes a thoroughly startling turn, and you say to yourself, "I didn't see that coming." For instance, I especially love it when the chorus isn't so much a logical, building-up of the verses, but a delightful turn into unforeseen territory.
