Don’t you LOVE the feeling you get when you hear a song that has a killer sound, and is coupled with lyrics that unload a world of energy on that entrepreneurial mind of yours? For me personally, music fuels me to get up and do something with myself… it never fails. Music is a mind-altering drug of inspiration and motivation that I’ve yet to find behind the counter of a pharmacy.
There’s so much brainless music on the airwaves right now. “Presi-dunce” Bush needs to pull the troops out of this stupid war we’re currently in, and have them fight the music labels of our country that are promoting gimmicky musicians who only care about making money instead of great music. What happened to the idea of writing songs that touch people’s emotions?… What happened to the idea of writing songs that stimulate the mind and help us increase our intelligence?… What happened to music as an artform?
Fortunately, there’s an elite group of musicians that are keeping it real and playing music that means something. Unfortunately, most of these artists are performing under the radar – So when you discover an artist that’s making the most of their opportunity to influence, you need to pass the word along to your buddies who need a musical kick-in-the-ass.
As an entrepreneur, I’m always looking for music that inspires me to move forward with all of the exciting ideas and ventures that I want to carry out – and sometimes, when I get in a rut and things aren’t going my way, I need the buzz of a good tune to get me going again. I’m sure most of you bizMAVERICKS operate the same way. It’s amazing how much of an impact a good song can have your attitude!
A band called “Mute Math†is really making an impression on my maverick-mindset as of late. They have a song called “Typical†that’ll make you wanna build the next friggin’ Google. The song tells the story of a person who is living a normal everyday life, and wants so badly to experience what it’s like to be a success. He wants “to break the spell of the typical†and really be somebody. The sound is a mixture of rock and electronica (Think “U2†mixed with “The Killers”), and is mixed with lyrics that aren’t overly poetic – and are therefore easy to comprehend. I guarantee it will knock some motivation in ya! Give it a listen on the bizMAVERICKS MySpace profile where I’ve currently had it playing 24/7.
But before you bizMAVERICKS go listen to the song, I’ve got some questions for you to answer in the comments section below…
What songs make you wanna change the world?
What artists are using their talents to influence others to greatness?
Tell a story about a moment in time where a song magically slapped you in the face and gave you a entrepreneurial epiphany.
Wishing you continued success…
bizMAVERICK…
