      @@dp271 it depends.
      1. A lot of popular 'musicians', don't even play a musical instrument, write there own songs, and even have their voices modified by tech. The money-folks behind the scenes are literally crafting up 'music' to make money strategically using every resource possible from what's trending, to sampling other previous hits, creating catching 'hooks' which a lot of times is just the same few words repeated over and over (which I cannot stand and is just awful).
      2. Music does manipulate viewers as well in film, where creepy sounds kick off right before something bad happens, or queue the romance tunes before the kiss/love scene. This is pushing the viewer to feel a certain kind of way, whether they realize it or not.
      3. Music played in clothing stores/malls intentionally designed to invoke excitement and increase the percentage chance for a customer to buy something. This is very much real.
      Emotional manipulation is extremely accurate in all cases above.
      Emotional expression as you put it, I would say this falls in line with cultural music tradition such as Pacific Islander, Celtic, Native American, Hispanic, etc. Sure. That's a whole love of expression going on without hidden agendas for the most part.
      The true tragedy is how overwhelmingly terrible popular/modern day music is to young minds. The sexual exploitation of the opposite sex (men and women are both guilty, Dojo, Nikki, etc... and an enormous amount of male performers), drugs, violence, object obsession (gold, jewelry, cars, clothes, etc etc.)... that young people are literally pouring into their minds daily, if not hourly. Upon rising, while walking, while driving, social media. A massive downfall currently is lack of role models for young people today. The current state of the music industry is a big problem and contributor to that downfall.
      As the great Obi-Wan said, "Your focus determines your reality."
      People of all ages, genders, origins constantly poisoning the mind with this trash nearly non-stop daily... just imagine if all of that mental energy was instead focused on creativity, STEM, reading, etc... positive things.
      There is indeed way too much and a lot of musically induced manipulation going on today.

    All of their wind instruments appear to be pretty similar to ours, even though the Bith can only breathe in. And according to the Wiki they use reeds just like ours.
    The only Earth instruments I can think of that operate this way are the harmonica, and the accordion (although the bellows make the suction for you)
    This is super cool, I wonder how their instruments work and how they’re made!

      Strange that a species with no external ears would develop musical instruments that are similar to those developed by humans.
      It's almost as if the original developers just didn't give it that much thought and the whole lore was patched together by nerds based on whatever slim pieces of original content was avaliable.
      I guess birds don't have ears either and we can still enjoy bird song.

    Typically, I'm not much for "what if" scenarios, however there is a "what if" scenario that recently has come to my mind, and this video (that is the story of the Bith manipulation/creation of Plagueis and the Force's counter creation of Anakin Skywalker) has now reinforced the potential question that I have, and perhaps MetaNerdz Lore could speculate upon my ponderance.
    The "what if": In "The Phantom Menace" Qui-Gon Jinn finds the opportunity to, perhaps, free Anakin from slavery. However, this opportunity, which itself is already highly dependent upon the outcome of a gamble, that being that Anakin wins the Boonta Eve Classic Podrace, the opportune chance to free Anakin is first and foremost dependent on whether Qui-Gon wins the roll of a chance-cube, a chance-cube that actually favors the color red to win. Of course, by using the Force, Qui-Gon manipulates the cube to land on blue, thus granting the freedom of Anakin rather than of his mother if Anakin does win the podrace. "What if" the chance-cube was supposed to land on red? That is, what if the original design of the Force was to have Shmi Skywalker freed and then she eventually returns to a wiser, more patient Anakin Skywalker who would then actually defeat the Sith without becoming Darth Vader in the process? Yeah, I realize there is a lot of speculation and caveats to this idea, but I thought I'd put it up for a pondering. Like I said at the beginning, I'm really not much for "what ifs" but this one just really sticks to me. Thanks for, if nothing else, reading this extended comment as well as putting out a lot of great videos.

      2.When he will learn he Had force,cause even if Shmi was back,would be Anakin be dead,or would he even kill tuskens (cause that would be possible,since rage let force be in use that Is mostly Dark side)
      And Last,would be even Shmi free sine she was (probably) slave for longer time.
      No hate im just honest,cause even if this possible i think it won't cause we don't know would they be even free or something worse happens,bu still this Is what if..
