Music is the life of a Movie

Music is the life of a Movie

In a typical Nigerian movie, it is impossible not to know the next scene or what is meant or supposed to happen by just listening to the change of the music in the movie or by just listening to the soundtrack.

For every scene, be it love, evil, or someone doing something evil, whatever you can think of, there is music or sound that is meant to alert the viewers or put and prepare the viewer's mind for the next action in this particular movie spoiler can also be seen in movies like Telemundo and India movies.

I am not saying it is bad though but I am trying to portray that in a typical Nigeria movie, we have and know every music for every scene, and most times the main music in the movie even tells us ahead of what is going to happen in the movie or should I say the end of the movie. We get to know the end of a particular movie from the beginning of the movie because of the music that accompanies the movie.

I have friends who still sing some cartoon music like Cinderella, Barbie, Nicodelus, and the rest I don't remember, and some high school musical songs and have them as their ringing tone not just because of the characters in the movie but also because of the music in the movie. They got attracted by the music played in the movie and that was what endeared them to want to watch the movie series no matter how many they were.

For me, I have some music I downloaded in my music playlist as a result of just listening to them in a particular movie I watched, all I need is to listen to the lyrics of the song, get one or two words from it and immediately went in search of the song in google and I was able to download it and listen to the full song with my phone.

Having a particular music that accompanies every movie scene makes a lot of sense as it kind of makes the movie memorable and makes it interesting too. For such movies, it is always hard to forget about such movies once we hear them from afar even without seeing them.

Every movie has music that accompanies it, and that is the life of the movie, there is no movie without music and not having music in a movie makes the movie boring and not eye-catching. So, in a world where creativity and diversity are the keys, having a movie without music is an impossible success, because it adds some amount of excitement, giddiness, alertness, and inquisition to the viewer. More reasons I think that music is the life of every movie.
