"Listen To The Music" is a song by the American rock band The Doobie Brothers. It was written by Tom Johnston, the band's lead vocalist and guitarist, and was released on their second studio album, "Toulouse Street" in 1972.

The song features a catchy and upbeat melody with lyrics that encourage listeners to "listen to the music" and let it take them to a happy place. It also features harmonized vocals and prominent guitar riffs.

Over the years, "Listen To The Music" has become one of The Doobie Brothers' most popular and enduring songs, and it has been covered by various artists.

And this song has a great vocal melody, and there are also powerful chorus parts.
We have been in many collaborations so far, but Stu songs are always wonderful.
And Stu sang not only the song but also the chorus.

Thanks Stu.
Here's a link to their channel that I recommend.

I like the lyrics of this song. It is a wonderful thing that you can feel the joy of hope and music. I would like to write this song and thank Tom for the world.

And, of course, I also love characteristic guitars.

This song uses banjo. I'm not a banjo player, but this time I also play a banjo.
And when I played this song, I performed at the open G, a typical banjo tuning.

Listen To The Music
Don't you feel it growing, day by day

People getting ready for the news
Some are happy, some are sad

Oh, we got to let the music play

What the people need
Is a way to make 'em smile
It ain't so hard to do if you know how

Gotta get a message
Get it on through
Oh now mama, don't you ask me why

Whoa listen to the music
Whoa listen to the music
Whoa listen to the music
All the time

Well I know, you know better
Everything I say

Meet me in the country for a day
We'll be happy
And we'll dance

Oh, we're gonna dance our blues away

And if I'm feeling good to you
And you're feeling good to me
There ain't nothing we can't do or say

Feeling good, feeling fine
Oh, baby, let the music play

Whoa listen to the music
Whoa listen to the music
Whoa listen to the music
All the time

Like a lazy flowing river
Surrounding castles in the sky

And the crowd is growing bigger
Listening for the happy sounds
And I got to let them fly

Whoa listen to the music
Whoa listen to the music
Whoa listen to the music
All the time
