Music is "Invalid Entry"  because it speak directly to the human soul. Music is a common factor in all cultures and most religions. Music echoes the movement of the spheres. Music is something each cultural, religion and human being can create and modify.

For me music comes down to the instruments, which the human species uses to create melodies and songs. There are certain instruments that brings tears to my eyes when I hear them played. My favorite instrument is bagpipes. I can't hear bagpipes played without crying. It doesn't matter what song is being played on the pipes. I cry when I hear Danny Boy or Amazing Grace played on bagpipes.

Hearing bagpipes is an emotional experience, which goes back to my cultural roots; to Scotland and to Ireland. True I also have ancestors who are German and Native American, but it is the bagpipes of my Scottish and Irish ancestors that make an emotional impression on me.

When my time on earth is ended and they celebrate my life, I want Amazing Grace played on bagpipes at my memorial service. I want the music of bagpipes to escort my soul into paradise.
