The way music is such a universal language is fascinating to me. How one person can write something so personal to them, and have the rest of the world feel something when they hear it. How it can be transposed from a song about one thing, to a memory of another. How you can do something as simple as changing the key, and it doesn't matter what language you speak you understand that it's meant to be hopeful, or upsetting, or bitter, or "as corny as Kansas in August!!". Everyone understands, and can find peace with themselves, as well as others for four minutes. And to me, that's truly beautiful.
Sorry for the SP reference. It's been stuck in my head all day.
