Music

Music is something that you either really enjoy, or you could not be bothered with. Some people think it is just noise, while others think it is beautiful and meaningful. In my opinion, I enjoy listening to music and it always puts me in a better mood. Music is very opinion based because there is all different genres and styles. From rap to country to rock or gospel there is so many different types and they all have tons of fans. There is a type of music for no matter what kind of person you are.
In my opinion, I feel music is pretty important in my life. It always puts me in a good mood and lifts my spirits when I am feeling upset about something. Music is important to me because it is entertainment and many things revolve around it. I definitely believe it is more than just background noise because every song has its own meaning. The song writers write songs about their life experiences and I think that is what makes music so meaningful. There is a story behind every song and even though you may not know all the details of the story, you can get an idea of how the song writer was feeling while writing the song. Sometimes when I listen to music I am not really listening. I get distracted while listening to music and then I could be listening to my iPod and not be able to tell you what the previous song was. Many times a certain song gets me thinking about something and I will completely tune out for a while and forget that I have my headphones in. On the other hand, there are times when I am paying close attention to every lyric of a song and really trying to interpret what it means.
When listening to music it depends on the mood I am in as to what type I would like to listen to. For example, if I am relaxed and a little tired I enjoy listening to slower music like songs by Adele or Colbie Caillat. If I am trying getting pumped up for a soccer game I listen to upbeat music like Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj. I always have my iPod with me in school because if I am having a bad day I can just tune out the world with my headphones and I start to feel better. My iPod has about 2,000 songs on it of all different genres. I have a lot of different playlists that I can listen to depending on the mood I am in, or sometimes I just shuffle through all the songs. Ii listen to music so often that I know all the words to just about every song on my iPod. In my opinion, the best thing about listening to music is being able to sing. Although I am not a good singer at all, I enjoy singing a lot. I always sing while I drive especially when I am alone and I always put the music so loud that when I sing I cannot hear myself. Music is very important to me and I enjoy listening to it all the time.
