¡LITTLE BIG!

Well, I was thinking about what picture I could speak of... then I founded this photograph.
This is me, when I was about 4 years old, in 1999.
It was taken by my dad. The guitar used to belong to him many years ago, about 15 years. And I used to took it without permission to play it hahaha... and he scolded me. But actually I didn't really know how to play it in this moment... but I liked.



Me, 18 years ago.
And as the artists, we can see things that no other person could in its art piece, so in my way of seeing, I like this photo not because it shows a physical thing, or place: It shows me my big love for it (guitar), and that it always has been like this, since I have memory.
But as I said before, my father used to scold me for using his guitar without permission. ¡So it is paradoxical, for the reason that he took this picture of me playing his guitar!

The magic of music.

Woah, when you are asked about what kind music you like most, is something hard to answer. I mean, isn't "hard", but is a topic of wich we can be hours talking about. In example, right now I'm listening Pink Floyd. They are just wonderful. 
In general, I like listening to a lot of kind of music; trap, rock, hip hop, rap, R&B, pop, romantic ballads, reggae sometimes, music to the soul as bossa nova or jazz, music to dance as reggaeton, salsa, bachata, merengue, electronic, cumbia or pachanga... And I could write a testament about it! But if I had to select a kind of music, I'd say the urban music as hip hop or similar are my choices.
Instruments... ¡I love them! At least a great part of them: piano, harp, treble, violin, classic guitar, electric too, saxophone, traversa flute, clarinet, bongo drum, drum kit and ukelele, to mention some of them. 
My guitar :B
So... music is a very important part of my life. When I was 9 years old, my older cousin teach me how to play guitar, at beginning some notes as C, D, G… and the F, I think was hard to learn. I mean, everyone who plays guitar for the first time knows what I'm really talking about. Playing the F note is a big step in learning to play guitar. So, what can I say, I love guitar, especially mine, obviously.
My favourites singers are those who left their mark, alive or death singers: Jim Morrison, Amy Winehouse, Los Prisioneros, Soda Stereo, Los Tres, Michael Jackson, Simply Red, Guns n' Roses, Janis Joplin, Pink Floyd or Pearl Jam, to name a few.
I haven't really stoped listening any kind of music. I've been collecting different types of music styles and songs for all my life, it's not like "oh, I don't like this singer anymore because I like other things I didn't like when I was a child", but I'm adding more songs and artist to my personal musical library through the years. Just the songs of Barney, the TV show. I really hate them. And I did love that show when I was a kid.
I remember the final song of the movie "50 first dates" with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler: “Somewhere over the rainbow”. It's way too beauty song. And the song “my heart will go on”, of Titanic.

Bellow here there is a song of Pink Floyd. It is really beautiful. It's poetry. ¡If you haven't ever listened it, I hope you like it!
Wish you were here♡
