My Least Favorite Things

Like I said in my second post, I usually listen to all kinds of music. It's hard not to let the beat of a song get to you where you're tapping your foot to it.
I do dislike some music though. Not much, but there is that one song that gets under my skin for some reason. Let it be the lyrics or the beat of the song.
Most rap is not that great. Alot of it talks about sex and drugs and money. I just don't see the point in listening to it. There is better music that actually talk about life, or things that have true importance. I'm not saying that all of it is bad, that would just be stereotyping it, But songs like "ass and titties"? Do you really need to write about women in the manner of objects like that? That is just my opinion though.

My Favorite Things


I listen to almost any type of music, from country to heavy metal and everything in between. I listen to rock the most probably though, or alternative. The reason i listen to all kinds of music is because it all makes me feel different. Music effects my mood daily.

Most people call my music "depressing". There is absolutly nothing depressing about my music! My favorite songs are Boston - Augustana, Come Home - One Republic, and Your Guardian Angel - Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. I like to listen to these songs because they calm me down and put me into a mood where the world's weight doesn't weigh near as much on my shoulders.

What is Music?

My opinion on Music
My personal opinion of music is very strong, I doubt that i could live without it. Music is an opinion of the person/people that have written or sung it. It is everywhere in this world, sometimes used spiritually, sometimes used just to be there keeping the person company.
Music to Me is
Music to me is a place to go and relax. I use it to do alot of things such as; concentrate on work, get pumped up for sports, or sit in my room drowning out everything else but my thoughts. To other people? I really couldn't tell you. Maybe their just like me, but maybe they see music as something else. Afterall, everyone has their own perspective on these sort of things right?
Music in My Everyday Life
I almost always have music playing in my ears or around me, and if i don't have anything playing, I'm humming the last catchy song that i heard in my head. I use music in class and even in the change room getting ready for a football game. Zoning into my concentration, picturing hitting the other team as the bass beats into my head. Drilling them into the ground with every down beat. So as you can see, music is a very powerful ingredient in my everyday life. From waking up in the morning, to falling asleep at night. Music is there for me, like a best friend would stick with you through a war. You know? Kinda sorta like that.
And this is what music is to me!
