Last week as I watched Steven Tyler sing the national anthem, it got me to thinking about music. A few blog entries ago, I noticed a number of your responses included music as a way to de-stress your lives. As you may have noticed, I like a wide variety of music: Different day, different music. From easy breezy to southern rock and showtunes to Aerosmith, I change my music depending on both my mood and my task at hand. What about you? Is there a certain type of music you love, or do you have a variety to fit your own repertoire? Is there a certain song that is your favorite, or does it change with your mood? With all the advancements in today's technology, do you think music has taken on a more significant meaning for your generation? Why or why not? And, as we have been talking about for our in-class writings, remember to add DETAILS!! So for this week's journal entry, consider all these questions, and describe what music means to you.
I think that music for our generation means alot more than our parents generation because we can get songs whenever we want. And for some reason kids now a days think they can sing and want to be singers. Just look at 99.9% of the people on american idol. I will admit that i am not good at singing. Some people would say that i suck. But anyways most people think they can so they get more and more into the music life style. So thats why i think that music nowadays means alot more to us than it did 20-30 years ago.

Today in modern time I think music is very big in our country. I know that in my everday life I listen to music from early in the morning riding the bus to working in class to listening to it in the car on my way and even when i'm home doing my homework. Music is something i enjoy very much and many of the lyrics in songs have true meanings and hit close to the heart. To me i dont care what genre of a song it is as long as it sounds good and i like it is all that matters. so with that said i'd have to say that without music id feel like a part of me was missing

Music is my life, Without music the world would be boring and tasteless. Like a radish. I love hip hop or rap but i also like a lot of songs too. I love the song young wild and free. Its a great song it also still depends on my mood.

music means a lot to me! i personaly like to listen to/create rap music. i have a band with a few friends, of corse we dnt have a name yet but were working on it haha. i usualy listen to diffrent eminem songs according to my mood. i think technolagy has done a lot to music today, because it made dubstep :)
ReplyDeleteI may change my toone of music by how i feel from slow or fast . I love listening to music my favorite songs i love the song stero hearts and wish you were here . I can listen to those song when iam happy or sad they put me in a good mood .
ReplyDelete<GlitterGirl<3
the kind of music i like to listen to is rap, country, rock but what i listen to mostly is eminem because he does his songs of what happend in his life or how he feels and i can relate to that kind of music
ReplyDeletei listen to so much music it's not even funny. I minly listen to music that exspesses how i feel. or like you said what im doing. a lot of the time i just listen to music when im bored. but the best time for me is probly when im driveing. People on the road are freaking stupid when they drive, you might as well put an 8 year old behind the wheel. But the music calms me down, instead of reating in my oh so positive way :). i listen to everything from blues to country rap to raga to screamo to rock to meltel to oldies. like i said it a large list. I'll listen to just about anything! i think that one day the world will be controlled by music. I mean so many people use it in there every day life that i think the planet would shut down without it...

I love all types of music and I'm open to anything. My favorite song ever is "Wish You Were Here", by Pink Floyd. It soothes me when I'm angry or brightens my spirit when I'm sad. I listen to a wide variety of music and, much like you, it depends on my mood or what I'm doing. Some songs just fit better in certain situations. When I listen to music from today, sometimes I find myself wondering if the people that listen to it even know what music is. I'm not saying that all the music made today is bad but,it's pretty close to the truth.
ReplyDeleteRigby, you sound like such an old soul!! My favorite Pink Floyd is, of course, Another Brick in the Wall--which was actually banned from the radio when I was in school!! Fun fact of the day! :)
DeleteSometimes I think My life revolves around music. Im either playing, learning, writing, or listening to it. All my life i have been involved with music in someway. My dad had a band and he sings and plays guitar. My mom is a professional singer. I love all music, some i appriciate more than others. I dont have a single favorite band, but among my favorites are, "Asking Alexandria, Attack Attack, As I lay dieing, A Day to remember,and Devil Wears prada.
ReplyDeleteBrovondudesnshtine
Music inspires me everyday. It's what i turn to when im down or just have nothing to do. My favorite music I usually listen to is country but i pretty much listen to anything, 96.5, 88.3 (Christian music) oldies,like 60's, 70's, 80's. I think music can describe how a person really is. In this generation it seems like we're all about music. Every where you look you see people with headphones in their ears. It's crazy! But i think music is good to have if the songs are not discouraging, like killing, doing drugs, sex or just being stupid. When i listen to music i like to listen to the song, absorb what it's saying and the words the singers say. Do you ever wonder if the artists really wrote the songs them self? Or do their songs really mean anything? If your going to write a song and brodcast around the world, at least make it inspiring.
ReplyDeleteI feel like music is a huge part of my life. I use music every day. I feel like music makes me do better in school. I can concentrate better and it helps with my grades! I think that music helps me dance better too. Depending on what mood I'm in that day. Most of the time I really enjoy singing to the songs I listen to! Sometimes the music will put me in a better mood or make me sad. I like the happy music. It can be very insparational! :)

ReplyDeleteTo me, music is a really big part of my life. I enjoy music, and all kinds of it. Classical is one of my favourite because I play it all the time in Band class. I also have a major love for the music Nevershoutnever writes. It's kind of alternative with a rock mix, and some pop. It's pretty much a mixture of all of the amazing music. I also don't mind country. I think music has taken a big toll on our generation, because of the Iphone and anything else that plays oogles of music. To me, this generation has an amazing selection of music. To me, music is a means of calming me down, of releasing emotion, and mainly to keep stress away (or ignoring my siblings!). Anytime I'm upset, I listen to music to block out life. My favourite song at the moment is "All your life" by the Band Perry. (:
I agree music is an awesome way to express yourself. I also agree with you when you said the music you listen to changes as the days go by. If I am feeling energized and excited, I love to listen to techno styled music. I listen to that mostly when I am with my brother driving around. When I am in bed working on homework I listen to a less distracting softer music, like violins. I love the group Vitamin String Quartet, they are very good and they play popular songs today but redo them with the gentle sound of violins, Its also perfect when I'm ready to sleep. When someone asks me what my favorite song is I won't have an answer because I love so many different ones. With all the new technology in our generation, I feel it has defiantly pushed us to being more interested in music and all the different styles. Music is everywhere we go now-a-days and very important to many many people, especially to my generation.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Some times it depends on what you are doing to know what kind of music you want to listen to. Music is evey where. Look at tv! like almost every commercial uses modern day music to advertise something. I don't think there could really be one favorite song because theres soooo many! When I listen to music, I'm constantly saying "I love this song! It's my favorite." So I have lots of favorite songs.
Deletei like all types of music. but like you said different day different music. for an example, if im mad i will listen to music thats really loud and exciting. or if im hyper i listen to music thats upbeat and makes you want to dance. i think music can relate to everyone in everyway.
ReplyDeleteI like all different types of music and it depends on what I'm doing and how I feel to determine the song I listen to. One of my favorite bands is Nickelback and so far my favorite song by them would be "This is how you remind me" I think music is and was important in all generations because it gave us another way to express ourselves. Music definietly is a big thing to me because I love that there are so many types of musci out there and I can choose what I wanna listen to, when I wanna listen to it and I love that most of the songs I pick can depict my mood in everyway. Music is so important! :))

i like rap it coms me down and before a wresling match it also pumps me up. i like rap it also gives me a good day when times are tought and when i work it also makes me conentrate. i also like christan music alot it helps me thought out the day too.
ReplyDelete- pretty boy
Music... ahhhhhhh. gotta love that daily dose of music. pop, heavy metal, metal, rap, RnB, rock. all are ones i listen to. what music means to me it helps me calm down. its theraputic to me. anyone who knows what music means to them should be typing a very long page hahaha. but what music means for me its just a life style. its something to do in your freetime. something to do when your bored. something to sing along to if you know how to haha. music is everything. cause think! in almost every commercial, there is music playing. at every store. in every car club where ever its at theres music. music actually makes the world go round..look it up..its scientifically proved.
ReplyDeleteFive-0
Yay, Five-0! We finally hit a topic you are passionate about! This has to be your longest entry EVER! Thanks for sharing!! :)
DeleteI agree a 100%. Thats all this world is, is music. Without, I'm sure some people would go insane. Most the world isn't used to silence, some probably don't even know what it is. To me silence is music. When i want to relax I want just the music playing and no one around me haha. This is the best subject because every one loves music no matter what kind it is. I can't help but to agree wiht everyone because music is life. It's sharing life in a song.
Delete~southern girl~
ReplyDeletedepending on my mood i usually like different stuff. i love the song last kiss by pearl jam, no matter what mood im in i can listen to it. i honestly couldnt care less about a lot of the songs from my generation because to me it seems like everything is studio made, like the singer cant really sing.
yeah thats true. I always wonder if the songs that are made are even real. I think they could be a lot better if the words came from the heart.
DeleteMy favorite type of music is rap!!!! and country and hip-hop. I like some old music like aerosmith. Hah, but mostly right now i'm in a good mood because the Patriots so i'm in a rap mood. Right now my favorite song is "Headlines" by Drake(: The only kind of music I do not like would have to be that heavy metal, hard core stuff. My mom and little sister like that kinda music but I do not like them! I like this generations music :)
ReplyDelete-katwomen.
I love music! I listen to music all the time, it calms me down and just relax's me. I don't really have a favorite band or certain type, I just listen to music that fits my mood at that time. I think music has taken a new meaning in our generation, because music now people put things in their music to relate to. Kids listen to music and relate to it.
ReplyDeletenewboy xp
Music is a great way to express feelings. It can change your mood or your perspective on things in an instant, if you'll let it. I dont believe to have a favorite songs, the songs i like come and go. I dont have favorites foods, movies, or even music. Its only what i like is what id say and they always change throughout my life. Types of songs i listen to helps me express emotion to not only myself but everyone, i dont know what id do without music.
ReplyDelete-Bmmarble
I only like rap and technoy dubsteb shrillex type music. The songs I listen to depend on the beat of the song and the mood im in. If im hyper ill listen to songs with a fast beat, if im tired ill listen to slow rap music. With all the new songs coming out all the time i dont really have a favorite one. I just like a whole bunch of songs but, some of my favorite artist are Drake, Wiz Khalifa, J. Cole... and much more. With all of our technology I think music does not have as much as a significant meaning as it used to because nobodys really playing instruments and making music anymore. They just use beats and stuff, but it sure does sound better.
ReplyDeletemmcbjy
I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music.
ReplyDeletei like rock, southern rock and country
ReplyDeletegibson
Those are specific details, gibson!! Still too short, but definitely an improvement!! Thanks for sharing!! :)
DeleteMusic is a big part of my life. The only rappers i listen to would be Drake,2Pac, and Biggie Smalls. I only listen to rap when im in a good mood. I listen to metal when im upset. The bands i listen to is Chelsea Grin, Bring me the Horizon, and Asking Alexandria. I listen to some country music, Brad Paisley, Eric Church, and Justin Moore. Music is a big part of my life shows my feelings.

ReplyDeleteSorry, Blackwolf. Just as we don't our own real names, we cannot comment about our opinion of anyone else either!
DeleteMusic means a lot of things to me. Most of all, it is a form of expression. I like to listen to mostly hip hop, rap, and sometimes country, especially while I'm driving. With all of todays technology, I think teens especially, are way more involved with music because there are Ipods, and everything. Sometimes different music changes my mood. Like some country songs, make me sad. I couldn't imagine a world without music.
ReplyDelete-volleyballerr12
There are a lot of different types of music that I constantly listen to. I like anything by Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez, but I don’t listen to them that often. My favorite music however would have to be anything by beyoncé or Wicked, the musical. I can listen to Wicked any day of the week. The other day I went up to Kansas City and listened to Wicked the entire way. I actually have two favorite songs. I Was Here by beyoncé and No Good Deed from Wicked. No matter what mood I am in, if I listen to these songs I automatically am in a good mood. I believe that music is more significant to this generation because it has been scientifically proven that if kids from our generation don’t care about anything unless it can move their emotions. So kids in our generation won’t just go with the flow if they don’t believe in it.

P.S. I heard Steven Tyler sing the national anthem, and it was terrible!
HAAAA! I knew someone would comment about that performance!! This completely cracked me up! I wish you would share more of these opinions during our class discussions! :)

Wow, great comments! And several fun new songs to look up too!! Keep the awesomeness coming, folks!! :)
ReplyDeleteI think the school should do something with the song "where is the love?" by black eyed peas. It's very inspireing. I was thinking about making a video and sharing it to others. It's a song that describes this world.
Deleteyou know i will so just look forward to mine because it is great and have alot of cool info that you dont want to miss so stay tune and enjoy
DeleteI think that music is such an awesome thing that is easy to get now a days. With all out new phones and iPods music is just at our fingertips. I like country a lot. There are slow and fast country songs, happy, sad, revenge and anything else you could think of in country songs. Even sometimes rap. It's crazy. I don't really have a favorite song I just like lots of them. I absolutely love pandora. They always play the best songs. It has a station for every mood. I just love music in general.
ReplyDeleteSpiderman(:
I will listen to anything except for country. I dont know why but i just dont like country at all. But whenever i get in the mood for just sitting around relaxing ill put on something with a beat and then just sit there and sometimes fall asleep. But other times when im playing pool or something i might be in the mood for Dubstep or something else it really all depends on the mood i am in.
DeleteMidget!!
the music i love the most is country music. it doesnt matter what type as long as its country. i do listen to others like hip hop but only if im in a really good mood. usually ill have it turned up loud and be dancing all around my house. country music just puts a smile on my face. i think its funny to see how music can actually tell the personialty of someone. my favorite song is she is my kind of crazy and when im with my boyfriend i acutally put on of his old tee shirts on and his boots and take his guiter and start dancing in front of him like the song says. it makes me so happy cause he wll start smiling like no other and just laugh.

music is such a great thing to have,so i am just saying now if you dont have one GET ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But anyway i like christian rap music it is so good because you can actually know what they are talking about. and i also like praise music like on sundays thats the stuff heading to church and heading back home OH YA. but musi is just a great thing to have and i enjoy it alot
ReplyDeleteMusic is like a mood ring. The style changes based on how you feel or what you're thinking. I like a wide variety, from country to dubstep. If I feel like I need to get up and rock out, I listen to metal; or if I feel somber, I listen to jazz or soft rock. It's impossible to tell what's my favorite. I love 'em all! (Well, all except bluegrass :/)
ReplyDeleteM_123
My favorite types of music is hip-hop, rap, and alternative. It usually depends on what mood im in or what mood i want to be in on what music i choose to listen to. I usually want to be in an upbeat mood so i listen to upbeated music.
ReplyDelete-cheeselover
I like any type of music that fits my mood. Not couting hard core rock. That stuff just gets to me and I do not know how some people could like that. My favorite song right now is "Young Wild and Tree" by Snoop Dog and Wiz Khalifa. I like it because it always fits my mood, up to beat and outgoing. It's really nice! I could not go a day without listening to music! I also like some rap, as in "I'm On One" by Drake. Also, some country as in "Shake It For Me Girl" by Luke Bryan and "Tomorrow" by Chris Young!
ReplyDelete-riverswimmin.
Ahh, Music. It gives me so many ideas on what to write about in this entry. All I can say is that music is the most important thing to me. I couldn't survive without it. I love music so much, that if I had to choose between going blind or deaf, I would choose blindness. That's how much I care about music. I really want to write my own material, too. I can't really play any instruments, though. I only sing, but there's always a first time for everything! I can still learn how to play something like guitar or piano, but it takes quite a bit of work to get skilled. I know if i really tried, I could learn it in no time.
ReplyDelete-Nannerb
I have a wide Variety of music I like to listen to. The music I like most is rap and dub step remixes, but I like playing slower music on the piano. I have a ear for music so I can hear it then play it. My favourite genre to play is R&B. I think muse is more of a thing for our generation because we have technologey so we can litsen to music about whenever we want.
ReplyDeleteRIKU
The kind of music that I listen to is; country, hip-hop,and rap.. I like country more then anything, because it lightens my mood and really help me pay attention better in class whenever I listen to it. There are fast country songs and slow country songs and sometimes the music can be boring or fun. The country song that Is my favorite is: Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood. Rap songs are crazy, but I enjoy them. There are some songs that im not a big fan of. I really don’t have a favorite rap song, but my favorite rapper is nicki minaj. I love pandora and youtube. Both sources are great for listening to good music. The best hip-hop/rock singers would be selena gomez and demi lavoto. Both girl;s are good when it comes to sings appropriate music. They are teen sings with great songs. Music is anything but my life. I don’t listen to it every day. Cause some times it could get anoying.

I love MUSIC! I would have to say i like Hip-Hop. Such as Drake and Big Sean. These songs put me on good moods that settle me down and alow me to work easier.If I had to pick a favorite song it would have to be Heisman Part 2 by Tyga, or Too Fake by Big Sean. But I still have alot of other favorite songs that I like to listen to. In cars I usaually list to Power 96.5. It plays alot of the now music and Top Hits which I Enjoy. SuperMan10-3rd Hour
ReplyDeleteI listen to a little bit of everything; but mainly alternative and hip hop/ rap. I can't really pick a favorite song, because I listen to so much music everyday, but I usually have a song or two that I'm obsessed with for a week or two, then on to the next one. I do think music has taken on a more significant meaning for our generation. With smart phones, tablets, and Ipods, music is always at our fingertips. It's such a wonderful thing. Music is a big part of my life.

"Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which is impossible to be silent." ~ Victor Hugo
ReplyDeleteMusic just as this quote says, music is a lauguage with out words. (Sometimes.)
My favorite type of music is hard rock, but I also like many types. (Except for rap, I don't see how people can call that music.) A lot of times, mu style in music changes with my mood, almost like a mood ring. When I'm vengful it's songs like, "Cry For Help" by Shindown. Hyper days it's cheesy songs like "Caramelldansen(English Version)" by Caramell. Depressed days, "Hello" by Evanescence. It all depends on my mood at the time.
One of my favorit types of music is mozart. It is just so relaxing and peaceful. I also like Bach. Like mozart, it is very peaceful and relaxing. If you ever want to listen to some good music, and not that hip hop stuff, listen to mozart, bach, or beetoven.
ReplyDeleteOU-Sooner
OU Sooner, I am SO GLAD you posted this. I have a classical station on Pandora that I rarely play for the class, but now that I know you are a fellow fan, I will play it all next week for your class. Thanks for sharing! :)
DeleteWell Of course it all depends not just on the mood of me. but everyone around me, if it tis sunny or not. My Choice of music varies back and forth. With my parents growing up through the 70s as teens and my father went through vietnam, Theyve introduced alot of music to me and it seems like i like that century music more than our own. Im not too big into rap and hiphop but there are some amazing artists and can name some underground songs. My Personal favorite because you can express yourself completely unlike Mainstream. music is an amazing thing. But there are a million other wonders that yet to be discovered. ------ Bob Marley
ReplyDeleteMusic is an amazing thing. It can change your mood and outlook on everything. I like listening to alot of undiscovered artits because they seem to have a different sound than all the artists you hear on the radio or the music channel. They sound more real and their lyrics are more personal and more in depth and can relate to the average people, unlike the some of the stars who have made it big and are just looking for their next big hit. I listen to every genre, depending on my mood.
ReplyDelete*Cheer47*
Pandora, Youtube, and Itunes. You can listen and get music anywhere in our generation. My music taste changes all the time. When im with my friends we like to sing to up beat music. When im tired or feeling down contemporary music is what I like. But out of everything I enjoy country music, especially 90's country. Right now Ive been listening to a lot of Beyonce and her new songs. My favorite, "Love on top."
ReplyDeleteI listen to music when i am trying to do homework or just want to tone everything out around me. I listen to country and Christian rap. They are two totally different types of music but i like them for totally different reasons. I like rap because of the beat and how they can rhyme so fast and fluently. I enjoy country because the songs tell good stories and they usually make me think of a passed experience or they just make me laugh at how dumb or funny people are.
ReplyDeleteMusic really isn't my thing. I don't listen to it usually unless I'm in the car. I like country and rap or hip hop. Haha they're deffinetly opposites but that's just my taste in music. 10/11/10ilovejordan
ReplyDeletei remember when i was younger i used to listen to music every chance i got. I would listen to it before bed, on my way to school and during school. It is something i enjoy. Now i may not listen to music as much as i used to but i like to listen to music before my basketball games because it puts me in a good mood and gets my hyped up for a game. And sometimes when i just need to relax and go to sleep ill turn on my slow RnB music and it helps me fall asleep when i have too many things running through my head.
ReplyDeletePersonally, music is my life. Every day, for at least 20 hours a day, I listen to music. I study music. I play music. My future lies within music and my musicianship. I have devoted my life to music. My musical preference is nonexistent, although I usually never feel like listening to country music... I'm sorry, it just doesn't speak to me. I listen to multiple different types of music, all of which I feel just as much as listen to. For those who don't understand the consept of "feeling" music, then you truly are missing out. Being a musician, it's important to be able to feel music. Personally, when I'm feeling the music, it really speaks to me. It gets my emotion going. In society today, EVERYONE listens to music. Everyone can say, that in some aspect, they like music. Those who can't, you are either a zombie, or you have no soul... I myself listen to music all the time. If I had my way, I'd be plugged into my IPod every minute of the day, even at school. Sadly, that's impossible... Why? because people are crazy, i dunno... After high school, I plan to take my musicianship and fiery passion for music and study music and sound, along with music production. I want to learn everything there is about music and learn how to produce it. As a career, I want to start producing my own music. I want to start up a studio and produce electronic music. House, dubstep, techno, all that... But along with that, i also want to get into music production in movies and videogames. My dream was pretty much born one day while I was listening to Last.fm. I was listening to the Daft Punk channel, which is my favorite. I could listen to it for days. I really started feeling the music, like i dropped everything and just listened to all the electronic beats and sounds and all the recorded instruments... i also read the biography on Daft Punk and was inspired to do the same. It was at that moment that they became my inspiration. I love their music and, in general, i just think they're awesome. I made the promise to myself that, one day, I will be like them. I will produce my own electronic music and do what i love and have such a fiery passion for. Hopefully one day, my music will inspire generations of the future to spark a fiery passion for music too. I have quite the road ahead of me, but this is what i want to do and will love doing. I'll have music with me every step of the way.
ReplyDeleteWOW!! You are a roll lately, ChoosyMomsChooseJip! Your blog entries are always great, but these last few have been especially outstanding. I knew you would like this one in particular, and I LOVE to see you write so powerfully about what you love!! Great job! :D
DeleteWell music isnt really something that I couldnt live without but I enjoy listing to it. My favorite type of music is country and an artist that I like is ben rector. I dont really listen to other types of music exept any type of christain music. The only time that I really listen to radio it's before a game to get my in the mood to play.

I love rap music! I don't care if some people thinks its bad and is destroying our youth! I love this style of music because the flow and the beat just make me happy and even make me focus better on a task i am trying to complete. If i am in a sad and down mood than i will listen to fast or a song with heavy bass to bring my mood back up, i don't know why this changes my mood but it does and i LOVE it. Also if i am in a happy mood ill listen to slow songs and meaningful songs and ill sing them and it makes me even more happy and cheerful! Dubstep is another genre of music i love to listen to just because of the beats and how it flows and when i am in a party fun kind of mood than thats what ill listen to and ill just have so much fun with it! I think music is a great way to change someone's mood and how they express there self. Music is a big part of my life and it always will be!

I like to listen to all different types of music, depending on my mood. If I'm upset I like to listen to acoustic or country. Most of the time I like to listen to hip hop and rap. My favorite song that I love to listen to, to make me happy when I'm feeling sad is Three Little Birds by Bob Marley. It relaxs me so much. I think that our generations music does represent our people. The music is just, kind of like a symbol of how much technology has improved. I like most of the new music too.

Music for me is a huge part of my life i listen what music mean something makes me feel better, it even makes me laugh. i heard probably the greatest quote about music i know which is "music is a universal language" without music where would we be at i listen to music everyday. every ends up picking there own music and as you grow depending on the music it can change an entire person. all this from just some person with voice and the write melody can change so many people. if you don't listen to music. how can you live without a song melody inside your head. some people say music is evil. i disagree what about the song about god and songs about love and the one that make you cry. I recently started watching American idol and I love watching these normal people sounding awesome. I just cant wait for the rest of the season to air. music is also a way of escaping people. lets say your frustrated with everyone around you well when this happens to me I just plug in my headphones and listen to song of my choice or maybe sometimes let the song choose itself. Got to love shuffle. :P
ReplyDeleteMusic is my life and I can honestly say, I can't live without it! If this world didn't have music, there really wouldn't be anything to be inspired by. The music I listen to always has a story to me. My life used to be really hard and I would listen to some really deep stuff but that all changed when I started thinking positive. I chose to listen to music that would enlighten my mood and lift my spirt. I don't listen to the radio anymore because it just makes me feel uncomfortable. Music is changing dramatically and I really wish it wouldn't create profanity in our minds. I don't want to be in the car listening to Snoop Dog talking about scoring and getting all the ladies. That's all people use these days in music or music videos, women. The men are disrespecting women more and more each day and it gives other guys the idea that they get to treat us poorly.
ReplyDeleteMusic in my opinion is.. I listen to music that goes with my mood and the type I listen to is screamo, rock, hip hop, and rap.. I listen to everything. Im not picky.
ReplyDeletewell i think music is great first because it takes our mind of from problems we may have also it has influnced oour generation alot because music is everything in my personal opinon i like any music besides country it just depends on what i feel to listen to that day so i guess it depend on my mood.

ReplyDeletemy two favorite types of music are classic rock and the music they play today. but my music varies on my mood. when im cleaning i like to play motivational music like mc hammer or something. when im sad i like to play something from the script. when im happy i listen to anything that has a good vibe. when im in love i listen to good love songs. music these days has changed. but it has changed in a good way. a way that makes the music business better.
Music is my life. I listen to it everyday, all day. I lovveeee country! But, i also like quite a bit of pop music also. Its like a stress reliever to me, when im down or just wanna have some fun!

I listen to a variety of music. Music is my coping skill and it helps me relax. My favorite song would have to be Just a Kiss because it was my weeding song but as my mood changes so does my music. Music now has a weird way of working. ALOT, actually most song made now are either sexual, violant, mean, upsetting, or romantic.

ReplyDeleteI like a whole verity of music. It just depends on my mood. Some of my favorite artists are Train and Lee Deyze. I think it is very relaxing and happy.
I don't like the direction Music is going today. With the correction when they sing, you don't have to have too much real talent to be a singer anymore. Then there is the music like techno and dub step that is electronic. I like that kind of music, but is almost doesn't seem like music...
Modern technology has made most music take a critical hit in creativity and originality. Most modern day music consists of rappers singing about how much money they have with autotune tacked on. True talent in this day and age has been hard to come by but it does exist. I do not have an absolute favorite song but Frank Sinatra has his place as my favorite musical artist. My mood can effect the music I listen to greatly, ranging from a relaxing smooth jazz session to a faster paced trance moment. Unlike most people, I will not go so far as to say that music is my life yet I love music very much.
ReplyDeleteMusic is a big part of my life. I listen to it almost all the time. I listen to different types of music. It depends on what mood I'm in. If I'm in a good mood I'll listen to rap or hip hop. If I'm mad then I'll listen to rock or something like that
DeleteI don't have a favotrite genre of music, but I love a lot of different types. I do believe that music in our age is more important than older ages. We have many ways to listen to music, and many things we could use music for. I think music is one of the most important things in a teenagers life.

I love all kind of music. It just depends on what kind of mood im in because it always changes. I like country more than the other music. Because i relate to like all of the country music. I dont really like all the other music now days because it talks about drugs,sex, and other things that really dont need to be there.I think that the music we listen to will shape part part of are lifes. One of my favorite songs is 'the impossible' i just love that song.It just reminds me of my grandpa,and even if times get hard to keep pushing though them. And to never give up on your dreams.
ReplyDeletei think in the past 20 years or so music has changed alot. music back in the 70s and 80s was about current events and peoples oppionions about things going on in every day life, but now days all tha the newer music talks about is loving or hating some one, sex and drugs, and how famous people are, i think that music that tells people storys and about events is good, but i also like some of the newer music to. to me music has been a big part in my life and my familys life. my dad has owned diffrent record companies sence i can rember.my grandpa aloso has had an effect on music history

music is this generations let go you can say it lets us forget the world, and sometimes helps us focus on certain things. For me it helps me relax and focus better. when i listen to music i actually get work done and am able to focus more easily. music has changed a lot in the past 20 years it went from rock being the most popular to rap and hip hop now. As all things change so does music,music is more of an expression of body and mind so it fits the individual. - Tricheco
ReplyDeletei like a wide variety of music from classical to death metal. the genre of music i listen to depends on the mood im in. for instance, ill listen to coldplay if im feelin chillaxed. if im super ready to rock ill listen to some heavy rock. music allows people to express themselves. music can help you if youre havin a bad day or just feelin like crap at the moment. todays music is so much more different from music that was created before the 2000s. some of todays music is utter crap and some of it is pretty rockin. oh, and when i need to clean my room or do homework, ill just put on some good ol music and it helps a lot. see ya

I love music, but the only music I like is music I can relate to. I like music that has meaning and isn't just a bunch of stuff about money and girls, like most stuff on the radio these days. My favorite is Alternative, a mix between pop and rock. NeverShoutNever, Mayday Parade, and The Summer Set, and Cady Groves are my favorite artists which most people have never even heard of them. And that's the way I like it. I like my music to be mine, not just something that everyone likes so I like it too. I like those people because what the sing is real, real to them and there life. They're small town people who sing about the truth most famous people are too scared to show. My favorite song is So Far Away by Mayday Parade and it has been for a very long time. It just feels like me and the way my life is. It makes me feel like I'm not the only one who feels this way about life right now. With things that are going on the only thing I have to escape to is my music and these people help me to realize I'm not the only one who has ever felt this way.
