                              Music in Color?!
     Can music be, colorful? No, only art can represent that, you might be thinking, but, actually, it can. The song "Colors of the Wind" in Disney's Pocahontas, is a song about colors, of the wind. But it doesn't have to be the title of the song to give it color. The lyrics represent some kind of emotion or feeling, and that's true color enough. Like if a song is a loud, angry song, it might be giving a red color because, when you think of mad, you mostly think of red. Or when a song is a sad mood, it could be blue.  (This blog post was to answer one of my viewer's questions outside of blogger, and I hope this was informative enough!) Comment any song that could have a "color!"
                              Dubstep

      Dubstep, created by Skream, is a genre of electronic dance music remix. Its music consists of loud, random sounds mixed together to create a song. It might sound robotic at times, like in the video I posted to the left, it has random sounds popping up, and its really loud. But, sometimes, not all dubstep is like this. Sometimes, on YouTube, people mix popular songs and dubstep together. (Caution, some may be highly inappropiate, so be sure to check for clean versions only, and some may be very loud, so check your volume!) Until next time, don't forget to...be a rainbow.

                              Cher Lloyd 
       Cher Lloyd, a british singer and model, rose to fame through the British X-factor, just like One Direction. 


  • One of her hits, "Swagger Jagger" was a single that entered number one on the UK Singles Chart, and number two on the Irish Singles Chart. 
  • "With Ur Love" featuring Mike Posner peaked at number four in the UK and number five Ireland. 
She doesn't have as many hits as Justin Bieber, or One Direction, but her fans, which are named "Brats" care a lot about her. This post was to say that a singer doesn't have to be a guy, or "hunk" to be famous because some fan-girls are fans because somebody looks nice. But it doesn't have to be that way. I like people who are famous for their music not looks. Comment your favorite singer!
                              Kidz Bop
              Kids Bop is a "kid-friendly" version of modern music, or "clean" version, and most parents would want their child to listen to this instead of the bad-influencing music today. But some kids have different, mixed feelings about the albums. Some dislike, and some like it, because its cleaned up version is better. But why dislike it? Bad words in music are influencing younger viewers. Cleaned-up versions can be better. So whether you hate it, or love Kidz Bop, rethink why. Is it really reasonable to have strong feelings about something for a silly or bad reason? Well, until next time, don't forget to bop to the music.

                 Romantic Songs
       Okay, so Valentine's Day is coming up, so when you think of Valentine's Day, what do you think of? From romance, to gifts, and hearts, those are all logical to think about. But do you think about music? A way music can relate to this romantic day, is only in a romantic way. Those slow, romance songs do exist. Some can be: 

  • "Love Story" by Taylor Swift, is a song that relates to Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" and tells a story about nothing other than a love story about a sappy romance going in this girl's head about this other guy. If you're maybe lonely this Valentine's Day, you could listen to this song. 
  • "Moment to Love" by Jay-Sean mentions the word "love" a lot, because that's what its about. If you have a lover, you should play this song. Its about a person saying they just want a, moment to love because like they never have time to. 
  • "Together You and I" by Dolly Parton is about this lady's strong  love for this man and throughout the song Parton makes similes about how strong it is. This can be for anybody, if you have a lover, or  if you like somebody who doesn't love you back...
The reason I named three only, is because most songs fall into these 3 general categories. So, until next time, don't forget the musical love.

                  Songs That Have No Meaning
          Sometimes, people favor songs that just don't make sense. "Starships" by Nicki Minaj? What does it even mean? What are starships? And "Whistle" by FloRida, what is it trying to say? Before you like a song, why do you like it? Because the beat of the song is happy, and upbeat? What about the content inside the beat? That's why you need to go deeper in the music. Not just, "Oh, I like this song. The lyrics are cool." No, its explicit, nonsense that you need to look into, and that could have a negative influence on the younger kids. 
      Making Music Without Instruments

         If you don't like the music that somebody else made, why don't you try making your own, but in a creative, fun, way?! Without instruments. Its possible. Chorus music doesn't even have lyrics. But, you can make your own music with lyrics and everything, but with the everyday objects around you! Like even a cup, a pencil against a table, or spoons hitting pots. All those things could create a background music (in other words, they could replace where the instruments were supposed to be.) Then, you add words. Its not that hard! You just put in how you feel, and make it flow with a rhyme. If you want to, try posting up some song title ideas! Well, until next time, don't forget to be a composer.
