The music world focuses its entertainment on the audible participation of its audience first and it's visual aspect second.

I am not focusing on any particular genre of music but the entire music world.

Tornados are powerful elements that can change something in a matter of seconds. Blow represents that calm nature of things that can be completely turned around and destroyed in the blink of an eye. This tornado represents emotional and physical whirlwinds that are unpredictable and unavoidable.
