"People take songs so literally"

- Richard Marx

About this Quote

This quote by Richard Marx is a suggestion that individuals typically take songs too seriously and forget that they are simply pieces of art. Music is a type of expression and can be translated in several ways. People often forget that the lyrics of a song are not necessarily implied to be taken actually. They can be translated in a variety of methods, depending upon the listener's own experiences and feelings. It is essential to keep in mind that tunes are meant to be taken pleasure in and translated in whatever way the listener picks. Music is a powerful tool for expressing feelings and connecting with others, and it must not be taken too seriously. Richard Marx's quote is a suggestion to take a step back and value the beauty of music without taking it too actually.
