Although we all know that Jazz is a style of music as it is a style of dance, many people may not realize the importance of dance played in music. There are a lot of songs that talk about the importance of dancing but we as a society seem to have forgotten the importance or importance we put to people of a certain age. As we get older we seem to forget not only the dance but also the inner significance of the dance.
The song “I Hope You Dance” is one of the many songs about the vital role that dance plays in nourishing the human soul. If one thing in life is important to all, that one thing can be dance whenever the opportunity arises. You never know when you will run out of opportunities to dance or find that you have already spent a lot of time. Take them as they come and your life will be filled with greater happiness than you can imagine. Apart from the many songs available that can convey a message, there are very few that speak more concisely than this song. "If you get the choice of sitting outside or dancing, I hope you will dance."
Garth Brooks is another artist who has had excellent comments about dance. Her song “The Dance” is not about the importance of dancing but about participating. Considering the choice, many who have lost their lives in a vicious effort are likely to tell the rest that they would not trade in the dance for one breath. The lyrics of this song bothered me in some way "I could not miss the pain but I would have to miss the dance".
Believe it or not all the good songs about dance do not always become national anthems. This actually happened, in my opinion, very painful. Other great songs about dance include David Bowie's "Let's Dance" song. The lyrics to this song include the stanza “Let's dance in fear tonight is all”. The truth of the matter is that you can not and dancing is a great way to celebrate life.
Music and dance for years have coincided and will continue to leave this world for a long time. At least that would be hope. I would love to see what a world without dances looks like. It can be like having children without laughter and that can be a sad world in which we can live. If you want to keep your children dancing you should teach them to dance. Teach them that it is okay to dance and be stupid in the house. That it's okay to dance their jobs (hey if it makes them smile while they take out the trash I say go!). Teach them that dancing is a great way to express happiness and that laughter is the best way to follow their dance.
Native Americans have a long and distinguished heritage when it comes to dancing. They let their dreams beat the heartbeat of Mother Earth and they danced in harmony with nature. They dance with joy and sorrow, war, peace and praise. There is no better example I can think of when it comes to dancing.
