I feel like I've already made a blog about The Strokes, but ima do another one because they're great.
I love the smooth rhythm and elegant sound of the Strokes. Songs like Reptillia, You Only Live Once (yolo can kind of dig its own grave and die in it.), um Last Night, Hard to Explain, and Someday. I dont really know how to explain my love for the Strokes.
But btw, were all so hard on Christian not only because he doesn't know how to talk to adults, but he has no respect for anything.  Just now Mr. A had to tell him to take out his headphones while we were listening to Graceland. Like he has no respect for anything or anyone and I find that really rude, arrogant, and obnoxious.
Sorry that was really off track. The Strokes are great. Listen to them and sing along till you feel better (Haha).

Today were listening to Paul Simons album Graceland. Lyrically this album is amazing. A lot of the lyrics are really deep not only to Pauls life but maybe to someone else out there (theres plenty I promise). I also really love the sound. The smooth guitar and drum beats just kind of make you happy. I also love that he uses many instruments to imitate sounds from daily lives. Ex. I head a train in the song Graceland (maybe that one Im not sure.
I mean its Paul Simon from Simon and Garfunkel. I had not doubt about his obvious talent.

Last friday (before spring break) I got an album by Marcus Brown from Mr. A.
I now have millions of videos of, what was my tortoise but is now my boyfriends, in his first bath with the amazing soundtrack playing.
I really enjoy the album. I think a bit of the recording itself needs to be edited. But then again that maybe the style of the song. I love the style of the music and the sound. A lot is based around women like long brown hair, michelle, hey baby, I think set me off, out of hand, set me off, Dont let her get away, I can feel the love, and when you walk away.
I really do enjoy the album though. I listened to it for three days straight. Oops.

Last class we listened to Michael Jackson.
The only memory I really have of him is whenever they found him dead, my grandmothers care taker actually turned off her tennis match to listen to the reports. I remember going to her room and trying to understand why she was bawling her eyes out, and what the big deal was? People die everyday? Why was his death so huge and such filled with conspiracy?
I cared more about his adorable daughter anyway. Is she still out there?
Anyway I dont really like Michael Jackson. His high pitched voice just bothers me. I also think his dance moves are odd intricate ways to grab his privates in front of a crowd? I will admit some songs and dance moves (moonwalk and the leaning thing) do amaze me.
But respect for the dead. He was a great man when he wasnt around children.

Have a great weekend.

So in class we looked at a bunch of other peoples blogs. I loved hearing their opinions and even some people defending the biggest dufus in class. Dont get me wrong hes probably a great guy. Just a lot of what he says and expresses are so... goobish.
What I also got out of the blog viewing was THEYRE SO SHORT. I had like this giant weight off my shoulders because I though these things had to be paragraphs! (The main reason I miss blogs sometimes.) Im so glad I dont have to write paragraphs of me saying words with no meanings.

Personally I dont like funk. I like the sound but a little is all I can take.  Like I like to giggle and dance around with one, but I dont wana hear it over and over again. I think a lot of the beats are the same. Like in all artists. I just dont likw how common the same sound is. I think a genre should have a variety. Not just one repeating beat.
