This song in the Military is a "WMD" of emotion. This was a transmission wrecking machine. I think I heard it at least once on every one of my deployments, and you would see some of the toughest guys you knew tearing up to this.

I think this song has a good way of transmitting emotion. I mean no matter who you are, this song can still kind of "choke you up".

"We need to attach emotional descriptions to music in order to contain it, fix it, draw its boundaries, know what use it has, and remember how to find it" (Ratliff, 2016)

"It is a basic measure of emotional intelligence to be able to read those symbols, either from the music itself alone, or with-as is usually the case now-some kind of chatter around it, a bit of myth or notoriety or a story told skilfully by a publicist" (Ratliff, 2016)

This padlet I will be talking about Ben Ratliff's definition of transmission. Transmission in this case is discussed as a "extreme form of emotion" (Ratliff, 2016). At first it was sort of a difficult concept to grasp. I knew what he mean't, by found it very difficult to show what it mean't. I also did not find the examples in the music very helpful in understanding "Transmission", but that is probably because I really don't know what "feeling" he is trying to get across. I agree with Ratliff's idea on transmission, but think that it is not a catch all term, and certain music can only transmit if that music is personally tied to the individual.
