What is music?

Although music only has one Dictionary definition, it can be defined as many different things based upon the genre of music and the audience it appeals to. For example, rap music that appeals to the teen age grouped might be defined by them as real life stories being unveiled to the world in the form  of "rhythm and poetry". Rock music on the other hand, that appeals to the teen age group as well, might be defined as an explosion of emotions that tell a story and is set to music in order to portray a certain message or feeling to its audience. With such a broad definition a bystanders is left with the responsibility of making the decision as to what music really means to them and how they will it affect their motives, decisions, and lives. They control how deep of a power music actually holds, what settings the like to listen to it in, and how much of their life they will let it engulf.
