Chorus Music Like instrumental music, as described in one of my earlier blog posts, chorus music doesn't have any lyrics, or singers, too. But, unlike instrumental music, there are people using their voices. Just, without lyrics. This can be called as vocalizing. Vocalizing is usually when a large group of people come and work together to form their combined voices into a song. In this video, a large group of men in a chorus vocalize. Try it:
If you liked this, and you want more chorus music, then go to www.youtube.com and type in chorus music. Then you can see a wider selection of Chorus music videos. Which is better? Chorus Music, or Pop Music? (Comment Below what you like the best!!!)
Bloggers' Music
In a cafe like Starbucks, or something, they play nice, slow music so people can sit down and work easily. In my first blog post, I mentioned what kind of enviroment certain people need in order to work. (Little fact: This is what my English teacher calls "Bloggers' Music" and Bloggers' Music is usually played by an acoustic guitar.) This type of music has lyrics and everything, but its quieter than usual music and much more calmer too. So, if you go somewhere with this kind of music playing in the store/cafe, that is a nice place to work. Be sure to comment some nice music like this if you want down below too! Until next time, try not to mind the music, (I haven't played that card in a while....)
The Thanksgiving Holiday As you know, Thanksgiving is coming up and we're all thinking about the turkey and food. But, little do we notice, we don't actually give thanks on this day and remember the day it was actually created. So, in this special Thanksgiving blog post, I'm going to put up some facts about the history of Thanksgiving that I bet you didn't know, so take a look at this video:
So, while watching this video, I bet that you didn't know that Abraham Lincoln declared Thanksgiving in the 1860's. If you did, then, this is something that you probably didn't notice. The Native Americans and pilgrims introduced it, and the festival went on for three days! Thanksgiving is a day to be grateful for what we have, to give thanks, to put it another way. Even when we don't get everything we want. So, let's embrace what the founders and leaders of our country created. And give thanks.
A Musical Thanksgiving?
How does music, relate to Thanksgiving, you're probably thinking. Maybe, Thanksgiving music? But actually I wanted to put up music that shows thanks and appreciation to the things we have. And also, autumn music, since Thanksgiving is in fall. So, even though Thanksgiving passed, you can still listen to these songs and think about Thanksgiving. So, here you go! ( Here's where you can find some of the top thankful songs to be found: http://www.spinner.com/2010/11/11/thankful-songs/ , and here's the link for top fall songs to be found: http://www.ign.com/articles/2008/11/03/top-7-autumn-songs) So, listen to these songs and remember to be grateful. Until next time, try to be thankful for the music. (Also, leave a comment below saying what you did for your Thanksgiving, if you'd like!)
Most video games you know have a melody or music to go with it. Sometimes, you're too wrapped up in the game to notice the playing music. But actually, if you were to imagine the game without melody, then the game would seem boring and meaningless. For those of you who don't play, then notice this on T.V. shows. Or try a new game and see if there's a music inside the game. As you can see, music can be used for anything, as said in one of my earlier blog posts. (You can find information about gaming at; http://thegamerspotblog.blogspot.com/.) Instrumental Music Instrumental music can also be referred to as classical music. Classical music isn't like the pop, new music that plays on the radio often. It doesn't have any lyrics, or singers (usually). Also, instrumental music is played with instruments, not with any machinery, or technolody, i don't think. If you have ever played any instrument at all, please comment that in the comments section, so we can see all the different types of instruments there are. If you've never played an instrument, then comment what type should be played in order to have classical music. Until next time, try not to let the music make you too instru-mental! (Mental, get it?)
Possibly in your old school you did patriotic songs. (You might wonder why all of a sudden I'm focusing on patriotism. Its because of the election that just passed, and I wanted to remind you not to take independence for granted.) Anyways, you did that act of patriotism because you are celebrating America's independence. There is a video in the top-right corner that has a song called "America the Beautiful", which is my favorite patriotic song. Also, if you wanted to say a patriotic song that wasn't played in the video, please enter that in the comments section below. The point of this paragraph was to remind you don't have to only celebrate America's independence on July 4th, but that you can celebrate it anyday, since we all take that for granted. Remember to always be thankful of our independence and peace. Hurricane Sandy
The reason I didn't update my blog and make a post is because of hurricane Sandy. (Sorry about that!) But, usually I only base my blog posts off of music. But this time, I'd also like to take a paragraph to remember the ones that passed because of the hurricane and the lost homes and destruction that also happened. If you'd like to make a shout-out to someone that passed away or who got significantly affected by the storm in the comments section, please do so. But, I think this storm taught us a lesson by giving us black-outs and destruction. I would put up some sad music, but I think that there has been enough sorrow already. (Also, if you want any extra information on Hurricane Sandy, here's the link for the website; http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/hurricane-sandy.htm.) Until next time, be careful to be respectful to everything at all times.
