Some people say that music is a good way of bringing people of different cultures and ages together. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Certain people believe that
music
is a powerful tool to help different people to develop long-lasting relationships. Despite the genre, people are able to find others that like the exact kinds of
music
that they do, and it might be curious how different these people can be from each other. I completely agree with the presented belief, rather a person like hard rock or pop songs, it is definitely possible to create strong bonds with other people through
music
. Today we are completely surrounded by local and foreign songs, it could be on a movie, in a cartoon, on the radios or even in your smartphone.
For example
, nowadays many people like to watch Japanese anime, and most of these shows utilize Japanese songs in their openings.
Furthermore
, even people who don't speak Japanese end up enjoying the songs and the song itself is definitely able to bring people together.
Although
this
is a very specific example, the same occurs in so many other situations that would be impossible to list all of them,
in addition
, the internet made possible that people are able to gather into a chat room with complete strangers and share their passion for
music
. The
music
is able to cross the borders without asking permission. Even before the development of the internet, albums and vinyl were already spread across the globe.
Moreover
, regardless of where you live. which culture you are inserted, and how old you are, it is absolutely certain that you already heard the name of some of the most famous artists in the world,
such
as Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson or Beethoven to name a few. They surely inspired many people and probably created thousands of life-lasting friendships.
However
, it is uncertain why do we all share the enjoyment of
music
, but we definitely do. In conclusion, I believe that
music
is responsible to create a solid bridge between people despite the genre. It can be used as an instrument of inspiration, of entertainment, relaxation or reflection, they are able to appeal to different people in different forms, but they are able to create surprisingly strong bonds.
