What music has made the biggest difference in your life?

Posted on Feb 4th, 2009 by Duff : Hope for Humanity Duff
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for February 04, 2009:

It would be unfair to credit one genre, artist or song to making the biggest impact in my life. It seems that every so often in my life my music interests change in accordance to my perception of who I am and of the world around me. The music I listened to as a pre-teen was vital to my emotional stability during my own hormonal imbalance. (Pearl Jam, Nirvanna, TLC, Salt N Peppa...) Then, wham! Teen-hood came, as did the emotional meltdowns. I simply could not have survived without Sublime, Tool, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Blink 182, Marilyn Manson and Rage Against the Machine. (Crazy combo!!!) During military life I preferred Nickleback, 3 Doors Down, Eminem, Alice Deejay and numerous others. Now I have completely done a 180. I currently listen to spiritually uplifting and Christian-based faith music. My favorites now are Casting Crowns, Brandon Heath, Toby Mac, and Sanctus Real. I'm sure in a few years my preference will change yet again as my life continues to grow in spiritual depth, but regardless, every song I have ever treasured has played a huge role in who I am today. So, I suppose that the music that has been especially important in my life has been everything that stirred up an emotional connection with me at any given time.
