Well, music has the power to set a tone and uplift the entire mood. It can also help to make events enjoyable and memorable, but the poor song selection can do opposite and can ruin the atmosphere entirely. such incidents happened to me when I attended my cousin’s wedding. Last month I went there with my parents and relatives. The event was organized at a palm classic resort Ludhiana and the hall was decorated with lights and beautiful flowers. Everyone was gathered there to celebrate a special day and giving them blessings. Unfortunately, the music played over there really disappointed me. Gigi was playing songs of rap and English dance songs which did not match the event. So I did not prefer to dance at wedding. Apart from this, Gigi’s songs were repetitive. So no one was paying attention to the music. They were feeling bored. Apart from this, the sound of DJ was extremely high, which was making normal conversation difficult. I requested them to lower down the voice, but they refused. Rather than making the bomb and nostalgic atmosphere, it completely ruined my mood and killed the whole situation. So at last I left the marriage early and reached at home and I did not enjoy at all. So this was a time when I attended an event and didn’t like the music played.
