“Music is therapy even when used for pure listening pleasure.

As we relax the body and mind, breathing becomes deeper and we are pulled into the music, where we become more focused and attuned to ourselves and the world around us.”

Raffaele Baldassaro (2008)

Pieces.

Daniel Udall, a 20 year old musician, shared with me his story about his favorite song:

"I have many songs that inspire me, and many songs I prefer listening to than the one I am choosing as my favorite song at the moment. But it isn't so much the tune itself that caught my attention, it's the lyrics that influenced me and helped me through a hard time, and that song is 'Pieces' by Sum 41." 




He continues:


"I recently split with my ex and struggled coming to terms with it. I was very self analytical trying to dig out what I could have done differently to save the relationship, but then I realised that if I am doing that 'I'm better off on my own', a line from the song that really inspired me. Another line is 'I tried to be perfect, it just wasn't worth it'. These words encouraged me to move forward, rather than try to change what had already happened."


Thanks Danny for sharing your story! :)


I heard this song probably about five years ago and I like it too! The song is seriously high in emotional content - but that's what I love about it. And not only that but it concludes that there is light at the end of the tunnel as Danny said himself!
