Imagine life without music. Music is used in basically every TV show or movie that you watch. Even commercials! You may not realize how much music can make a difference in shows or movies. It turns one scene from good to GREAT.

I chose to do an episode from Hannah Montana, it’s the very last show of their four seasons. Miley and Lilly are both going to college but, Miley gets a major offer to be in a movie in Paris. They then split up and go their different ways to Paris and Stanford after a big fight. And it’s pretty emotional because they’re both best friends far apart.

During the last scene, when they’re both settling into they’re new “homes”, the song “Wherever I Go” plays. It’s the perfect song to match this scene because they’re with each other wherever they go. Some of the lyrics are “So I’m moving on, letting go, holding on to tomorrow I’ve always got the memories while I’m finding out who I’m gonna be, We might be apart but I hope you always know You’ll be with me wherever I go, Wherever I go.”

Hannah Montana was a favorite show to all girls back then. And when the show was ending it’s pretty sad because we grew up looking up to her. The last scene was already emotional but, when the song “Wherever I Go” was added it made it even more emotional and maybe make you a little teary eyed.

In conclusion, music makes a huge different to shows and movies. It emphasizes certain things, a little zazz to it, and makes it much more interesting. Next time your watching a show notice how music (with lyrics or without) helps a scene flow or makes it great.
