Make music, not war

Generally, anything to do with death filled me with dread, and war is bound up with death. The history of humanity is full of the black stains of war, which we come into contact with from a young age, since we're taught about them in school. Later, as we grow up, some of us watch war unfold through live news broadcasts, and some unlucky ones live through it and see its harsh, inhuman "face" up close. In an attempt to escape its fury, the thought 'Make music, not war' became even more appealing.

In the absurdity of a war, you can never get answers to the questions that arise about why it's happening.

No one has ever managed to give convincing answers to the simple questions that the outbreak of a war raises. The causes and pretexts for starting a war are many, and for quite a few people they're important enough to grab a weapon at the first opportunity and start killing each other.

I know that many of you reading these lines will say I'm a utopian who finds it absurd that humanity kills itself over issues that could have been resolved in different, less painful ways.

Imagine, in a parallel universe, if instead of weapons there were only musical instruments, and we loaded them with notes instead of bullets

And since I've brought up utopia, imagine, in a parallel universe, if instead of weapons there were only musical instruments, and we loaded them with notes instead of bullets. How much more beautiful would life on earth be if, instead of every war that broke out, a new song were created in its place?

Imagine if, instead of the pain and despair a war conflict creates, we felt the warmth… The joy and all the beautiful emotions that a song stirs up in us. Imagine if there were no war… but only music.

In closing, and having spoken once again about music, let me point out that the tracks I've listed are 5 anti-war songs I've picked out.
