While listening to Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” I instinctively thought of The White Stripes cover of the song, sung by Jack White. So upon receiving this assignment I knew exactly what cover song and artist I was going to discuss. As discussed in class, Jolene was written by Dolly Parton and released in 1973. While, the White Stripes first released a cover version of “Jolene” in 2000. Unfortunately, I think of the song and I think of The White stripes, as it was with this band that I was first exposed

Ba Dum Tss Chilly early mornings, where the only perk of waking up at five a.m. is getting to see the beautiful sunrises. The smell of turf mixed with sweat.

Colton Dixon is perhaps best known as the Mohawk styled Tennessee local who appeared on American Idol Season 11. His first album A Messenger was the No. 1 selling album by a new Christian Artist in 2013, and his distinct tones and look have marked him as one of the best up and coming Christian artists in the genre.

People may think of music as random noise. As for me, I thought so, too. Two years ago my best friend introduced me to a band called Panic! At The Disco. For a more pop-genre person, listening to an alternative rock band was not of interest. For the sake of her constant asking, I gave them a chance. One day, I put in my earbuds and stumbled across this one song, “Trade Mistakes” by Panic! At The Disco and it changed my perspective of music.
