Life is dull and boring without music. For me personally, that is. It’s the one thing that kept me alive during college days while mending a broken heart, lol.. Music makes me feel relaxed these days after doing house chores and getting all work done online. It’s my companion during lonely nights when hubby is working the midnight shift.
When I’m so busy and can’t seem to squeeze in a proper exercise, I turn on my fave ’80s New Wave music. The chores I do at home replace the exercise routine and the music, well, it helps perk up my sleeping senses.
Imagine doing the huge loads of laundry that piled up for over a week. Envision that as your exercise for the day. Ain’t it crazy? For sure you’ll be so tired and sweaty when you’re done with the last piece of cloth, lol.
Play your fave fast songs, this way, you’ll wake up those snoozing senses so you can at least tone those muscles and burn unused calories. Listening to your favorite music can enhance your hearing sense. For sure your sense of touch will be busy working on those clothes, lol.
When hubby’s home and he’s on one of his regular days off, he plays the guitar and like serenade me while I’m washing the dishes (hahaha). Cute and romantic actually, more so when the tune is jazzy which is both our fave. Sad that he has to let go of one of his sound effects and got the boss pedals for sale.
Anyway, I can do a lot of things when there’s music playing. I’m even writing this article while Tears for Fears is on, lol. No joke, I work better when there’s music in the background. Makes me more lively and my senses all tuned up.
Try it sometimes and incorporate music in anything you do! You’ll be amazed how much work can be done in a jiffy!

Music is essential to our life, I cannot leave without it. Try letting the baby on your womb hear classical music because it is really helpful for his or her development.
I love using music too! We listen to upbeat kids music during the day on weekdays at my childcare.. and when I can I play my favorite “older” music I do :). Great post!
We almost always hav emusic playing in our house. I like the background noise and the kids love to dance!
Music is an important instrument of life, no doubt! And the article above is a good review about music. Thanks for that!
I can’t live without music also.
The only moment I need absolut silence surrounding me is to write – I can’t concentrate otherwise.
For everything else, my iPod is always turned on.
It’s amazing how much music can influence a persons mood. It’s very powerful.I’m glad we have so many talented people out there!
I too enjoy listening to music while online, doing chores or just relaxing. And when my husband and I are having a spat, I just get out my mp3 player and earplugs and tune out the yelling and fall fast asleep 🙂 When I awake, the argument is over and forgotten about!
Hahahha… We have the same style Sylvia!
I agree. Nothing like a favorite song to pick me up when down.
I totally agree. I like to have music on as background noise when I’m doing just about everything! It’s so much better than the TV (which ends up annoying me). It can perk me up if needed, or relax me when I need some peace.
Music is the best way for me to get household chores done. I love musicals and sing along with them.
I have to have the music on when I am cleaning the house – 70s classics all the way!
You’re right – music can totally set (or change) the mood of any situation!
I love music…it can change my mood with just one song
I too have to have music on when I clean up (if I turn on the tv I get too distracted!) And I would go crazy driving if I didn’t have my music ..NPR’s world cafe is my favorite on the radio!
Music is very important to me. I am so unmotivated to clean, but I turn something rocky on and turn up the volume and in no time at all I get done with the cleaning!
I also use music to motivate me to clean! Most of my friends comment that I must be cleaning, because they can hear music in the background when they call me.
I cannot imagine life without music. It can make me cry, laugh, dance, sway and sing. I find, depending on what I am listening to that it will relax me or motivate me.
The one time I really need music is on long road trips, especially on road trips I take alone. Helps the time pass quicker.
I was raised around music and listen all the time and almost every genre too
I agree that music can lift your spirits. I’ve always been surrounded by music and instilled the love to my kids as well. My daughter is an accomplished musician.
Great post! Music really does touch the soul & affect the spirit! Plus music is universal, and can be appreciated by everyone!
I agree, music definitely makes things nicer. I listen all day while cleaning my house. I either blast it so I can hear it all through the house or I use my Ipod.
What a great idea! I love my music, I just never really thought about listening to it while I clean house. but I’m going to now. It really will make it better and go faster! Thanks!
I love music I like my music blaring when I’m cleaning house or when I’m in the car.
I don’t know why I like music but, it makes me feel alive and intoxicated.
I tend to listen to classical music throughout the day.
Music expresses our soul, its what sets our mood in. I try to listen wnenever i can
Music is SO special! It can make the mundane tasks fly by! There is something very primal about music, as even severely mentally disabled people who are otherwise non-communucative will often respond to music!
