What is music to me?

Where to start? Music to me is a gateway and unrealistic portal to a sublime state of emotion. Without my personal pick of songs i cannot make it through the day because everytime i listen to my music i visualize the artist pouring out their emotions onto a piece of paper, it can instantly change my mood because if i am in a gloomy mood i know exactly which songs i can listen to and instantly pump me up. Personally, i respect everyone's music taste but i have specific taste that i would not give up for any other choice. It bothers me so much when people hate on others' music preference and they make their choices seem bad but why would someone do that? It isn't like everyone has the same music pick, that's why when someone made rude comments on my music taste i kind of lost my cool and went off on them...anyway music is a form of art that, for the most part, an artist composes with their thoughts and comcealed experiences. It is a way to try to fit in someone elses shoes and try to understand their story which is why i prefer music with deep interesting meaning. My all time favorite artist is Eminem no doubt about it! By far he is the man who has learned to take his scars and bruises and turn them into an extraordinary work of art that reaches out to me like no other. I love his way of wording the pain and struggles into entwined lines of clever rhymes and loops with a major touch of comedy. Everytime he words his stream on conscousness onto a verse i enjoy listening to it for hours and trying to understand what he is trying to paint. I could go on forever about how amazing and talented Eminem is but i would be here for hours. Another artist that i really like are three bands called Thousand Foot Krutch, Hollywood Undead, and Red! They have a way of filling me with energy and adrenline that makes me feel unstoppable and remotely capable of doing anything i set my mind to! Honestly, this is just the very beginning about how i feel about these artists and music
