My father's musical collection.

 

 

 

I would like to talk to you about something that is part of my fathers and also my life;     I really don't know where it came from, if it was illegally downloaded from the internet or if It was bought on the music store. I don't really know how many years it took to my father go get it, or if he just simply asked for it to a friend or relative, but what I know is that my father's music collection is the largest and greatest mix of music that I've ever seen; you don't need to care about the genres, because it have them all, for it, it doesn't exist the phrase "I don't like it" , or at least I have never heard that phrase while talking about it. It doesn't matter what are you passing trough at that exact time; it doesn't care if you are feeling lonely, sad or happy, it will always have a combination of songs which you can listen, and with that feel better, and the most important; feel happy. His music collection is so great he wouldn't sell it for nothing in the world, he had it backed up in 4 hard drives, in order for nothing to happen to it. Even thought there are lots of songs maybe even my father does not understands (most of them are the songs in English) he always enjoys listening all those tons of songs and melodies which are meant to make people appreciate the meaning of music. I remember this time he lost his USB flash drive, when he was just starting to collect it, and when I saw the look on his face like the world was lost to him, it was so sad to me that I helped him to look for it, but I couldn't find it. It has been with him to cheer him up in the bad times, and to make him enjoy also the good times, and since my father is a really musical people trust me, it does change his emotional state. I really appreciate it and contribute constantly to it with the music I buy in iTunes, because I don't know when am I going to need from that collection... But at least for me, it was, is, and will be the most complete and awesome music collection in the entire world for one single and unique reason... It's my fathers.
