It sounds corny but music is the most important thing in life. 
Music is life.  Music is happiness(joy or peace of mind) and then 
some.  As Albert Camus said, "Next to silence, that which comes 
closest to expressing the inexpressible is music."

   I've outlined the main types of good music.  Music that sucks 
includes rap(short for crap), disco, soul, opera, most 90s 
alternative, much of new age, much top 40, much adult comtemporary.
