Gotta ruin everything, don’t they.
OTOH, has anybody ever been stirred to joyful weeping by a piece of would-be music rap blasting from a passing teenager’s car the way that symphony can do?
True story: My daughter went to a Catholic HS and there was a parking lot across the street where family members or friends would wait to pick up their student. Well, one car would park next to mine quite often. Young Hispanics, and they would play (c)rap music very loud. I had to close my windows.
Anyway, I decided if they wanted to play "their" music, then I could play mine. So, next day, after they park, I put in a CD of favorite opera arias, and turned up the volume. You never saw anyone roll up their windows so fast. Hopefully a lesson was learned that not everyone likes YOUR music; and, you aren't going to like everyone elses' music either.
LOL! Literally!
That is so true. Classical music can stir the soul.
Rap, not so much.
