The power of music There is world of music around us. It this world large or small? It often depends on how much you know: the more you known the larger the world is. Music is the soundtrack of our lives. It can entertain us, transform our feelings and appeal to our hearts, but it can destroy us. Music conquers our hearts and feelings. It can leave us indifferent or it can provoke powerful and complex feelings. There are different kinds of music: classical, soul, rock, country, folk, blues, heavy metal and many others.

Musical instruments Different music is played with different musical instruments. The musicians play the piano, drums, guitar, bass (guitar) and trumpet. Some people like listening to music. Some people enjoy playing music. And some people like dancing to music.

Outstanding composers of Russia Classical music makes us think of people and places we love. It can evoke long forgotten events and feelings we thought we forgot. The well-known Russian composers are Skriabin, Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Shostakovich, Mussorgsky, Rakhmaninov and Prokofiev. In my opinion they overwhelmed the world with their music.

Outstanding composers of Britain The outstanding British composers are Henry Purcell, Benjamin Britten and Andrew Lloyd Webber. No doubt they filled the world with their music. Andrew Lloyd Webber is the king of the musical today. His musicals and rock operas have been a great success both in Britain and overseas. Benjamin Britten wrote music for plays, songs for children. His music is melodious and not difficult. It can be enjoyed by every music lover. Henry Purcell is often called the “British Orpheus”. Thanks to him the 17th-century English art of composing music has been included in the treasury of European music.

Where is this band from? Why is it called “The Rasmus”? The Rasmus are a Finnish rock band that was organized in 1994 in Helsinki, Finland while they were in high school. The original band members were Lauri Ylönen (lead singer/songwriter), Eero Heinonen (bass), Pauli Rantasalmi (guitar) and Aki Hakala (drums). Before releasing their fourth studio album Into (2001), they were simply known as Rasmus, but changed their name to The Rasmus in order to avoid being confused with a Swedish DJ of the same name.

Is it successful? Their 2003 hit "In the Shadows" made them famous worldwide. Today the band is one of Finland's most successful bands with more than 1,5 million sold albums worldwide, eight gold awards and five platinum awards. They have released six studio albums. Some of the band's most famous songs are the singles "Liquid", "F-F-F-Falling", "In the Shadows", "First Day of My Life", "Funeral Song" , "No Fear" and "Sail Away“.

Let’s sing together! First Day of My Life Feel like I’m stoned Wanna be along, just for a while, unknown. Weeks on the road a long way from home, Just shut off the phone. And you say I’ll heal you, I’ll always be yours, And you say I’ll kill you if I do something wrong, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Refrain Still feels like the first time To stand here by your side, Together regardless We’ll walk through the darkness, Still feels like the first day of my life. Первый день моей жизни Чувствую себя окаменевшим Хочу остаться один, хотя бы на время Неделями в дороге, далеко от дома, Просто отключив телефон. И ты сказала: «Я излечу тебя, Я всегда буду твоей», И ты сказала: «Я убью тебя, если я сделаю что-то не так» Да, да, да, да, да, да Припев: Всё ещё чувствую, как будто это первый раз. Стою здесь рядом с тобой Вместе, несмотря ни на что Мы пройдём сквозь тьму Всё ещё чувствую, как будто это первый день моей жизни.

Why do I like this group? I adore this group! It’s great! I am mesmerized by their music and songs because they are romantic, amazing, fascinating, unforgettable and breathtaking. Their music appeals to my heart and entertains me. Their music makes me think of days off and parties. When I am happy I listen to “F-F-F-Falling” and “Keep Your Heart Broken”. When I am sad I listen to “Ghost Of Love”. I suppose my world of music is large.
