Some people take music for granted, and do not realize what a major part of life it is. Just one example is a movie. Unless you are a true Band nerd like me you dont pay more attention to the music in movies than you do to the movie. To most people, the music in movies is just a background thing that they don't consiously appreciate. Now if I took the music out of a dramatic movie I can guaratee you no one would cry. If I did the same to a terror film, practically no one would jump when something popped up or feel the suspense when the little boy was about to open "the door." When you feel things in movies its usually because of the music even though at that time you may think that its because of the characters. Of course you cant just have a movie with no dialogue and images and just music (us Band nerds might not mind all that much), but music plays a big part in our daily lifes. Not only in movies but in lots of other things too, and for us Band nerds...well we couldnt live without it.
