My Type of Music

I have a few favorite songs, but I don't have a specific favorite. It just depends how old I am and what I'm going through during the time. One of the songs that I have never seemed to forget is Beverly Hills by Weezer. It is one of my favorite because as a child my brother and I would sing it and we memorized the whole thing including the guitar solo. Another song would be My Humps, my brother, cousin and I would go all out whenever this song would come on. Its another song that reminds me of my childhood and growing up with my brother and cousin.

I gravitate towards a lot of music because of the way I'm feeling that day, or week. I will gravitate to some music because I get tired of listening to "catchy" sounding music and listen to stuff that I think is actual music. Songs that actually have meaning and a great singer that has a passion for singing instead of some pop singers just being in it for the fame. I dislike hardcore metal just because I didn't grow up with it and I'm not used to it, but I also think it just sounds like a bunch of metal rattling together.

My friends don't really have the same style of music as I do. I like to listen to Indie pop a lot of the time, or softer sounding music and they like pop. They don't tolerate a lot of the music that I like, but I tolerate what they listen to. I used to not like country and now I do because many friends listen to it.

Without music, the world would be pretty depressing. I'm sure music has saved people from suicide and going into a deep depression. If it weren't there would those people that were saved by music still be here? The world would probably be chaotic, but celebrities wouldn't be famous for pretending that they know how to sing with auto tune.

Music can shut out the world for me whenever I need it to. It can calm me down whenever I am angry at someone or something that happened or just when I'm upset. Whenever my friends or family try to calm me down, it's not a good deal. It just makes me even more angry sometimes. It can also motivate me to go work out, or finish homework. Not many things motivate me to do those two things so it's very helpful.
