Because I worked in the commercial music advertisement field, in addition to education and the stage, I intimately understand persuasive powers of music.

My grad work was in how music develops the adolescent brain measurably by academic achievement. It is more a scientific research than music. While it specifically focused on adolescents during the period of transition from concrete to abstract thinking and adult maturity, it applies to everybody regardless of age.

My work focused on biology of dendritic avenue growth as result of music performance, also used for comprehension of higher mathematics. While language and science is involved, that was too broad for my research. Others pursued causal relationships between music and other disciplines.

Chemistry of electrochemical neural pathway conduction and transfer was in an infancy. Many of the specific neural electrochemical endorphins weren't yet known, studied or identified. Many are now and we have a better understanding of it.

Effect music has in advertisement is very similar to academic performance. You would think the latter might have revolutionized education, but it didn't. Too much resistance by school administrators who lack training and not only remain skeptical, they're unwilling or unable to simply change the academic class schedule to accomodate and take advantage of what music performance does. In short, they don't believe it, and that is sheer ignorance.

I do not know how to fight ignorance, which I define as the willing choice of people to remain stupid. That is precisely why we elected a felon to be POTUS.

I wrote music for pharmaceutical companies and products. The most successful campaign was for a company whose product lowered two kind of cholesterol. The musical melody was written in thirds, accompanying a pair of actors, often twins, who looked the same but dressed differently, or looked different but dressed the same, representing the two different cholesterol medicines. The commercials played everywhere, all day, every day.

The product was very successful until it was discovered not to do what it was claimed. Pfizer was sued and the product recalled. All ads were recalled and stopped immediately. Since I sold the music, I don't own the copyright, and if I put it on You Tube, I'd get a copyright strike and sued.

Too many people far underestimate the power of music, and they are almost daily victims of music manipulation of which they're largely unaware. It is insidious in retail shopping. Many major retailers musically control customer behavior from time they enter a store until they leave, totally unaware of what happened. You begin with the "right hand swing" and you slow down around every sale bin, table, and rack. You spend 13% to 30% more time than you intended, and buy up to 35% more crap you don't need that you didn't intend to buy.

Unfortunately it hasn't been as effective with shoplifting.

Key to good protest songs; Gotta keep it simple.

All these shorts have one thing in common that made them instantly successful.

We need good protest music. Yesterday if not sooner!

The felon destroyed American science relations with the world. We are at least thirty years behind just because of his policies. He destroyed our agriculture business with his stupid tariffs. We can't recover for a decade, even if we can manage to get rid of him. He destroyed our business relations with the world because he proved untrustworthy as a businessman. For starters, he lies all the time.

The America we knew, even just a year ago, is prolly gone for good. The most ignorantly stupid POTUS was elected by the most ignorantly stupid people. One need look no further than quality of students and education in those regions.

Tommy Tuberville was a sh!tbag bad teacher who rose to become a coach, then Senator and soon to be Governor. He might be a POTUS rivaling the stupid fool in there now.
