Music soothes our mind, refresh us when are exhausted, comforts us when we are distressed, makes us happy when we are sad, energize us when we are sick.

The choice of music varies from person to person, but when it comes to the kids, the adults make the basic choice of the music that they listen.

A child can be a great connoisseur of music or can be a simple one who sings the solos at the shower, but it is sure that the child will have great benefits through some form of music education.

It has been proved that music education facilitates the learning of other subjects and at the same time enhances the skills that the child uses in other areas.

It’s definitely one of the greatest songs ever released. Its lyrics are so cool, the guitar lick is awesome. This song’s live versions are astonishingly even cooler. The only perhaps uncool reason is that Clapton won’t play this song anymore because he says it somewhat promotes drug use. This sounds weird right? But look, several people who have never given coke a thought still like the song. [Read more...]
