Music in the Global Village

We live in a world that everyday tends to be more connected than it was the day before. The notion of ‘Global Village’ is today clearly understood and followed by every single person on the planet. And as a matter of fact, music is nowadays one of the fastest means of communication.

The way how, nowadays, new bands and artists are still influenced by many artists of the 50’s/60’s clearly shows us the power of music through generations.

Iconic songs as ‘We are the Champions’ by Queen, ‘Thriller’ by Michael Jackson, ‘Mercedes-Benz’ by Janis Joplin and many others are known by all of us in every corner of the globe despite the many years that have passed since their release.

 All these arguments clearly illustrate the way how music has been achieving its place as one of the unifying factors of the world’s population and that for many years that pass, not a single song is forgotten.
