In this article, I thought the line about how well composed music can have different meanings each time you listen to it was interesting to me.  Music with meaning may become irrelevant or less relatable as time goes on. Like was written, Music is often used as a form of escapism. Reality can be quite harsh at times, which is why we've come up with our own ways of leaving it, even for a small amount of time. Listening to music is one of the healthier ways of coping with difficult situations in one's life. Many listen to music without getting a real grasp of the song. Lastly I appreciate the ending of the article, where the reader is encouraged to be a more conscious listener.
