Fifth Harmony

The groups first album released after Jimmy Stokley’s forced departure was not one that the group enjoyed recording. All There Is was full of disco influence; a style that was being forced on many groups at the time. As a group that did not even like disco,

Two women from two different backgrounds have so much in common yet they are so different. One grew up in Houston, Texas while the other grew up in Saint Michael, Barbados. Even though these two women have had very different up bringing the one thing they have in common is their great voices. These two women’s background, musical style, and other career ventures make them both two of the best female artist in their field.

Women’s music came from radical, grassroots origins in the 1970s thanks to contributions by brave women, mostly lesbians (Mosbacher, 2002). These women used non-violent, peaceful force to forge their own way into the music industry. It was a peaceful yet political revolution of togetherness and liberation. It brought together women of different backgrounds who produced easy-listening, mellow harmonies played with lyrics filled with tumultuous

This song displays the traditional messages sent by male artists. What about female artists? What do their songs portray? Andsager and Roe’s findings give a good description. According to them, there are two kinds of female artists. The strong, more established female artists portray women as “fully equal.” These women are in their thirties at least, they are more established, and they dress in casual suits. They sang romance, female emancipation, and heartbreak like the rest, but they did not compromise their image in their videos. They use Trisha Yearwood as an example in her song Everybody Knows. The other type, were women who “fell into the lowest level on the consciousness scale.” They used Deana Carter’s song We Danced Anyway as an example. In this song she rolled on the beach in a wet t-shirt. Another one is Faith Hill’s song Breathe. In this song, Hill is seen rolling around in her bed sheets with no clothes on.

The tone of this song is hopeful. It tells women of all ages to stay true to themselves, even when everyone else around them is changing. This is mostly relatable to teenagers attending high school. In the song it says, “Hold on to your innocence, stand your ground when everyone’s giving in”. During high school, children are introduced to various new things, such as: drugs, sex, and alcohol. It is the students’ personal choice whether to give in to these new additions or not, but the song suggests they stand up even when everyone else around them has given in. The song has three stanzas with four lines. The rhyme scheme is grouped into pairs, rhyming the first two lines and the last two lines in each stanza. Rhyming two consecutive lines can make the song easier to remember. “This One’s for the Girls” is extremely catchy, not only by its meaning, but also its rhyme scheme. It makes an imprint on one’s brain.

Most of the songs you hear on the radio nowadays are upbeat songs about relationships, love, and partying it up. While most of these songs have a catchy tune and a nice beat, the lyrics can sometimes be unrealistic or hard to relate to; we connect to the beat but not to the meaning behind the words. This is not always a bad thing, but sometimes it can be refreshing to listen to a song that hits close to home or that you can relate to your own life or experiences you have gone through. One artist that does an incredible job of expressing extremely relatable and important subjects and meaning through his music is singer/songwriter Tyler Joseph. He’s the mastermind behind the musical duo Twenty One Pilots, and while many of his songs are upbeat

The funky and groovy song is only pulled off by creating the bigger picture from each member's ability of not washing out the other's "voice." Complimenting one another's strength, the break showcases the adaptability in their sound, which replicates the strength of "desire" within the song's lyrical content.

While many people will not credit punk band Green Day and political influence Malcom X to preach similar beliefs, they do happen to have a great deal in common. Comparing Green Day’s 2004 song “American Idiot” to Malcom X’s speech “God’s Judgement of White America (The Chickens Come Home to Roost)” as presented on December 4, 1963 prior to his departure of the Nation of Islam, a clearly common variable is prominent throughout the entirety of both mediums: the rapidly deteriorating nature of America.

Typically in October the music scene I am a part of in Bloomington throws a 'Halloween themed cover show.' It gives people who are 'too old' to trick-or-treat something fun and enjoyable to do. Local bands from Bloomington will dress up as another band and cover song that they have written.

When people are asked “which is the most rock famous band” or “do you know any rock band”, most people answer AC/DC. Despite being one of the oldest rock bands that are still active, AC/DC is still famous and well known among generations. The band has been around for more than 40 years and has been globally recognized as one of the most influential band to the pop culture of rock and roll. The band has a history of rotating members, yet the band is able to retain its famous characteristic in the music: energetic, eccentric, and raw.

The off-beat sequences of the electric guitar create a reggae feel for the song endorsing it to be mellow. Throughout the song, the electric guitar does not have any solos but variations of its sequence are repeated throughout the structure of the song. Doing so gives the lead singers’ message more priority. The domination of the classic drum kit creates a ‘head-bobbing’ motion for some when listening to this song, helping it become more popular and an easily enjoyable song.

It was a slow song which are often hard to keep well toned because there are a lot of notes to hold out longer. This song had a lot of parts where Sopranos and Altos overlapped and they kept those even and one-right-after-the-other making it very easy to understand the words. Their second song was in a different language which is tough especially since it was such a fast song. They made sure that each part could be heard equally and no part was too overpowering. Of the beginning girls songs’, their third was definitely my favorite. This song was a more modern song with a similar idea to Lean On Me. The small group of girls that came down from the risers at the end did a good job of holding out the long notes and not letting them fade away. The final song was similar to the third song even though it was a completely different song. It had a good soprano alto balance throughout the whole song. This song, however did seem to have a few voices sticking out from the soprano notes in different parts of the song.

Hotel Transylvania 2 is a terrific movie that takes its viewers through an animated, yet symbolic journey of loving those who are different.

Due to the fact the original version has a lot calmer tone and more serene, the song does not have harsh, loud sounding instruments. This version mainly contains a very subtle trumpet and violin besides when the sounds increases in between verses. However, the exciting and very happy vibe that comes from the cover, reflects on the instrumental use. The song has a steady, dominant bass guitar strum, with bells and an electric piano also helping to maintain a consistent beat. Before the lines “Fast away the old year passes, Fa la la la la la la la! Hail the new, ye lads and lasses, Fa la la la la la la la!” in the original maintains the subtle violin and trumpet wherein the cover, the melody gets louder with more dominance in all of the instruments, twinkling of bells and more harmonizing done by the singers, something really enjoyable to

Many popular love songs claim that being in love is similar to being under a magical spell. Some state that "all you need is love," and still others affirm that "love lifts us up where we belong." People dream about finding their one and only soul mate, and in this day and age, the pursuit for love and happiness is closer to home than ever before......in fact, it's only a mouse-click away.
