Daina, Period 7
I love music with a great compastion. Some people say that music i their life but to me, music is were I grew up. I was born in the U.S. but I was raised in Jamaica for quite some of my childhood and all I new and learn was music. Without music I think that I would be a very stubburn person because I would have no excitment in my life. Music makes you want to dance and have fun but still can relaxe and sooth you.

Nereida, Period 4th

In my opinion, i listen to music because i have no choice. being spanish, means that everything part of my life involve music. its just part of out culture. i cant imagine life without it. not only that but when u going through a ruff situation and you have a song you can truly relate, it makes the situation that much easier to get over. to make the story short. how can we live without music???

Music is really expressed in my culture. My whole family is Jamaican, so as an exaple of some of the artist that we listen to are: "Beres Hammond", "Sanchez", "Glen Washington", "vybe Kartel" and much more. For me, i listen to the music i was grown into, and thats about it. No offence, but if i was to sit and listen to spanish music, i wouldnt really enjoy it because i wouldnt understand the point of it. As for "rock and roll", it's the same thing. Everyone is entitled to their own taste in music. It is one of the major ways to express yourself. It can also have special messages that can help solve problems such as love, death, and families.
--Simone 4th period

People have many reasons in why they listen to music, but in my opinion I listen to music because I like how it gets your heart pounding. For some reason it gets your adrenaline going and you seem to get lost in the song, or more like you lose your mind and go to a whole different world. Another reason I listen to music is because I'm from a Spanish back ground and of course we love to express our feelings in the way we move around while dancing.

I listen to music because it gives me the energy to be able to be spontaneous. Also because there are many different types of music out there in the world to listen to that many people enjoy as well as me(such as rap, hip-hop, r&b,reggae, reggaeton,calipso etc.). I also like to listen to music because at times it helps you relax your mind when you're in a tough situation or when you're sad and things like that. Music is very interesting and I enjoy the rhythm and lyrics from most of them.

You have made some good comments. Music is in every culture and you open yourself to listen to different genre of music. It helps you enjoy the world better.
--Mr. Lawson

I listen to music because it's something that I love and enjoy. I also like it because it bring many diffrent kinds of people together and can spring new friendships. It is also a way to express yourself whether you like to rock out with rock, dance the night away with salsa, or throw down a funky beat with R&B. I also like music because sometimes you hear a song you can relate to shows how you feel on the inside, a sad song too express the pain of loss or a happy song that goes with a good day.

Yes, students, music is a powerful source. Music is one element that has no prejudices; it unites all cultures. Begin to listen different genres, you may learn something.
--Mr. Lawson

Music is relaxing. It calms the mind, it is enjoying. There are different types of music. I love reggae, pop, hip-hop, and rap music. I mostly play music to dance because I am a dancer. Music is apart of everyones life.

Why do I listen to music? I listen to music beacuse it's all around us. I also listen to music because it takes things off of my mind. It keeps me focus to sometimes.

Ruhyma Salifu(pd.7)
Today in music clas i learned that the reason why people listen to music is to be entertained, to kill boredom, to relate to it, to celebrate, to put self to sleep, to enjoy, and /or to set the mood

In class we learned about the various reasons people listen to music. For example some students listen 2 music for entertainment or to relax their mind. We also learned various vocabulary words such as beat and rhythm. I was also able to learn the difference between perceptive and causal listening. I think everyone is entitled to listen to their favorite genre of music on a regular basis as long as they broaden their choices every once in a while because you never can know what you like unless you listen to everything.

Daiana, life is what you make it. Listening to music helps to make you feel relax and heals the tension people have inside. Try to develop your taste and listen to different music. Listen to the instrumentation, the lyrics, the dynamics and the other components you will be amazed.

Mr. Lawson
Ruhyma, people listen to music because it can be very therapuetic. Music heals the mind, eases the tension and relaxes the soul. Do you know the story of David how he played the harp for King Saul when Saul was getting crazy? Music has magical powers. Music is enjoyed by every culture as it unites people.

Zay as you stated music has magical powers. Performers too help us to enjoy their music because they put all their passion in it as they present it to us. Can you imagine a world without music?

Music is everywhere you go if you realize it or not. Music is something I listen to when im mad or sad and when im happy too. I listen to it at those times because it takes my mind off something i dont want to think about or sometimes it even relates to me and makes me feel like someone in this world understands what im going through.Music was and still is a major part of my family lifestlye and always will be.I love music.I cant imagine a world without music i will go crazy!

I love music and i can not go one day with out listening to it. I listen to music for entertainment, so I can relax, relate to the lyrics in songs, to express my feelings and it also helps me sleep. I can truly say music is a huge part of my life and with out it I believe the world would be a boring place, especially since a come from a spanish background music is the thing we listen to the most. I love music I feel like thats the only thing that relates to my life in so many ways. Life is great but haveing music around to make things exciting is even better.

Why do i listen to music?...Well music is something that follows us.Something that makes our culture better & more entertaining. MY main reson to why i listen to music is because i love to dance..i love to move my body to the rhythm of the music. Also I listen to music when im at home doing chores. It takes my mind of the fact that i have to do chores all day. So while im cleaning the music keeps me up beat & I actually forget that im doing chores. When im bored the fIRst thing i do is turn on my radio and just jamm to the music. i like reggae, slow jams, hip-hop, reggeaton, & techno=].But the most important thing is that music makes up my personality.So that is why i listen to music..Because it makes up who I am & what i like...!
--Dorange L..PERiOd 4th

People listen to music for enjoyment. It is known to relax the mind at times and relieve your mind, body and soul. Music may express a person`s feelings as well. Different music from Jazz to Rap,blues,and R&B can reflect the way a person dances. Music is loved by many including myself, it is a way to communicate with each other.

I love music. I listen to it to just have fun. When I relax or some friends come over to hang out. when I'm depressed from school the first thing I do is get my ipod, and I forget why I was mad. I listen to music because it makes me happy

I listen to music because it is very fun. I also listen to music because I like to dance along to it. I listen to music because it reminds me of people and places that I have visited. I listen to music because it expresses my culture. I also listen to music because it relaxes me. I listen to music for all of these reasons but I listen to music mainly because I like to sing along to the lyrics.

I think as a consumer I would not buy their CD's because they are saying bad thing about women. They should realize that they came from a women and that a women raised them. As a consumer i wouldn't buy thier CD's and they would realized that no one likes what they are singing and saying. This the only way we could change their behavior.

I listen to music to relax and have a piece of mine. Sometimes the lyrics to a song can take you to a place of comfort because you can relate to it and you feel as if you and the artist is feeling the same way. If you are having a bad day it can help pick you up
