“When I see him dance and sing, it touches me, like a spirit; it moves me inside sort of like the Holy Ghost. But it’s more than singing and dancing; he manages to touch your soul”. These were the words from Isiah Lord Thomas III, one of the fans (Michael Jackson Chosen Voices). Not only that he captivated his audience through his singing ability, but his dance moves also captured their hearts in a deeper level. The forces of energy that exert from his dynamic dance movements were irresistible.…

There, 1917” (pg.389) 1. Upon listening to the first few seconds of the song, my initial opinion of the song's tone was that it sounded very patriotic. It had a fast beat, with many musical instruments incorporated into it. When paired with the lyrics, this song puts listeners into a light-hearted mood. In addition to this, after pairing the lyrics with the beat of the song, I came to the conclusion that the overall goal of the song is to instill patriotic emotions into listeners (specifically…

dark scary roads and in moments of loneliness.” Sometimes when that one perfect song comes on I can just feel all my problems disappear and in that moment I feel free of the world, I feel happy. “We’re told these days that the hottest and fastest wire into memory is our sense of smell, but music must run a close second. Some songs carry us into a certain mood, some to a general region of our past lives” One particular song comes to mind carried along with a past memory, which seems like it…

Last May as my graduation gift my sister bought my best friend and I concert tickets to watch Beyonce on her Lemonade Tour at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, CA. The lyrics of the Lemonade album convey themes and messages of betrayal, infidelity and female empowerment. For opening acts Fat Joe, Big Sean, Snoop Dog and DJ Khalid performed. Before Beyonce began singing there was multiple LED screens mid stage with different images featuring Beyonce. The genre of music she plays is Pop with a…

Top Ten Christian band Twenty One Pilots declared its musical manifesto three years ago in the song “Car Radio,” “I will try with every rhyme to come across like I am dying to let you know you need to try to think.” Twenty One Pilots’ hit “Stressed Out” is currently played on secular radio stations across the country and in Europe, and the duo is selling out concerts at every venue. Even though they are open about their faith, the band continues to sneak like a hacker through the world’s…

issues of police brutality and the attempts to subside it with the Black Lives Matter movement. “Freedom” appeals to the African American audience and those who oppose their treatment. The artists, Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar, are the protagonists of the song who are faced with the conflict of man vs society, which is confronting ethnic…

but do we always listen and understand the lyrics? When you listen to a song for the first time, you’re just getting a feel for the song, and you enjoy the beat. The next time you listen to the song, you actually try to listen to the words. You start to understand what they are saying, and find lines you like the most and figure out what the artist means. These lyrics will be looked at from a sociological perspective, for the song “Wrong Way” by Sublime; I’ll be using course concepts for trying…

His Own Shot” by Brand New, relates to me personally because of a friendship I came across in high school. When I listen to this song, it brings me back to my teenage years, when I was a young girl longing for a relationship with my dream guy. This band was introduced to me by an English teacher from highschool whom I had the biggest crush on. I connect with this song because it reminds me of the relationship I had with this teacher. He stole my heart at first sight, introduced me to beautiful…

local community college (with a slightly bigger budget). However, after the first song I knew that I was going to be proven wrong. Featuring a myriad of Broadway hits, the soundtrack of this performance is what you would expect on a show-tunes playlist. Instead of making it difficult to live up to, the familiar soundtrack worked in the actors favor, with the entire audience humming along to almost every tune. Each song was brought to life not just through the lyrics, but the choreography as…

without a sound, however lyrics normally need accompanying music to be understood in the correct way. If you lay out the lyrics of Pink Floyd 's song "Time" without the accompanying music, many questions and observations come to mind. One of which why is there no chorus in the song? Songs generally contain a chorus and it is peculiar to stumble across a song in absence of one, such as "Time." It makes the listener wonder if the Pink Floyd members purposefully chose to eliminate the chorus…
