Prologue I am Dave. I want to be a wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers. It was a dream that I have dreamed of for a very long time. I remember every touchdown that I’ve scored since I was five.…
Music can be more than just something to dance or sing along to. It is also a form of art and a way for people to let their feelings out in a different way. Many people write music to express any sort of feeling, such as happiness, anger, and depression. By putting out their music they can connect to their fans, friends, and family in a way that is easier for them and everyone can find a way to relate to them. The songs “From Dog to God” by Prayers, “Undercover Martyn” by Two Door Cinema Club, and “Hey You” by Pink Floyd all express the effects of isolation and how it gets in the way of their lives.…
Music is used to help people of every ethnicity, religion, and lifestyle, cope with different struggles, times of enjoyment, and life itself. But, what is it about music that makes it so therapeutic? It’s the fact that no matter what the genre of music is, it’s what message that artist is putting out into the world. It’s the beat, the tone, and the emotion behind the lyrics is what makes listeners feel the way they do because it speaks on a specific aspect of life and what someone can be going through.…
Daniela Suarez Prof. Rosen- Gonzalez SPC1017 20 January 2015 “Music Swims Back To Me”: Daniela Suarez’ Edition “Music pours over the sense, and in a funny way, music sees more than I. I mean it remembers better.” I feel like Anne Sexton gathered up all of my feelings, all of my thoughts, interpreted them, and placed them in two sentences and twenty words. I’m sure each and every one of us has encountered a tough situation and later crossed paths with a song so relatable, you begin to shed a few tears. For me, music goes way beyond that.…
Whether the music is being played at a happy or sad event, the emotional aspect is always there for me. Music brings people together in many ways especially if it is a moving event. Tears will be shed, people will laugh, and all different types of emotions will fly, because music creates different emotions and feelings in each and every individual.…
Dick Clark once said, ¨Music is the soundtrack of your life.¨ Music is one of the most powerful and influential things in my life. Without the melodies and harmonies of music, my life would feel bland and meaningless. I have a very busy schedule and sometimes it is too easy to lose meaning in my everyday tasks, but with music I am able to keep meaning in my life. I use music to get me through the activities of my everyday life. Whether it is cleaning my room, doing homework, or just relaxing, music makes everything better. I think that music can convey feelings and emotions extraordinarily well. When words cannot do the job, music can. Along with that, I think that music accompanies memories very well also. Going back to Dick Clark’s quote, I think I would be able to make a timeline of my life just using song titles, albums, and…
What We All Need Music is an incredibly popular form of art. There are a variety of music genres that people listen to. Everyone has their favorite genre, yet sometimes they hear a song from a different genre that they may not usually listen to but as soon as they listen to it they can relate. Music can bring people together in a way that nothing else can.…
Music connects us to time and place. For instance, many of us may remember a song that comforted us during a difficult time or what was playing during a happy occasion like a graduation or engagement. Despite our varying tastes, the one constant is that music plays a role in times of comfort and celebration.…

People listen to music for a variety of reasons. Some listen to music to relax in which it serves as a sort of escape from everyday life, some because they are a fan and follow a certain artist, and others because they can relate the lyrics to their own personal experiences. Whichever the case may be, music has and continues to serve an important role in people’s lives.…
Music has played a significant role in my life from the time I was born. First, my name came from a very popular singer/song writer Melissa Manchester that my mother really loved. I remember growing up she used to sign and dance to her music one of her favorite song was “Shine like you should”.my mom still listens to her music today. I remember always listening to older music that seemed to have a lot of sole growing up such as Air Supply, Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie and even Marvin Gaye. I have always listen to music when I am happy and just want to groove or even when I am feeling sad and need to listen to a song that I can relate to for feelings…
Music serves as an escape route for people when dealing with daily problems, big or small. Music can also be a way people communicate. When there are no words to say, music helps express feelings. There’s always a song that a person can relate to. Each song has a distinct message to it that differentiates it from others. The lyrics of a song are what allow the listener to make a connection with the artist and song. What does music mean to you? Has music helped you through a difficult situation? Everybody handles things in different ways. In my life, music has always served two purposes: it keeps me busy while working on either homework or any task and it allows me to let go of feelings I have been harboring. Music is separated into different genres, based on the unique composition, style, and content. The song I have picked that relates to Aristotle’s three appeals, logos, pathos, and ethos, is “Say Something” by A Great Big World. This song has been close to my heart recently due to a breakup I have experienced.…
I stared at the T.V., mesmerized by the boops, beeps, and bops that it was throwing out at me. Whether this was the work of the drugs I was on or not, this show was hypnotizing. To all ages, of all mental/physical states. Teletubbies, I know, are extremely creepy. But at that moment I may have actually been grateful to the little colorful beings for putting me under their spell.…
“Real music is bound to express, not to impress.” This one sentence, explains everything we have to understand about music. For most people, music is merely food for the ears, but for some, it also feeds the mind and the soul. People who see music this way are sort of gifted with the knowledge of a language that is neither taught nor learned; a language that is understood with the heart. Those people understand the muted emotions and the unspoken messages the composers wish to convey. Not many appreciate rock music. Nowadays, people are more engrossed in mainstream music. Mainstream is something that is done, heard, or seen by the majority of this population. In other words, people would like it better to stay in track of popular songs and artists loved by many, than those that are out of favor.…
Music has always been a part of us ever since the begging of time. It’s been with us threw the happy, great times and also for the not so happy bad times. We can express ourselves with music by telling a story with in the lyrics and even with the beat showing, telling how we are feeling. It can be a cheerful, carefree, joyful beat, to gloomy, mournful, blue beat, but not everyone has the same taste in music. Music it’s self is unbelievably stunning and so breathtaking.…
