day's. They want to drive around in a benz' and have girls fill the whole
thing. What these kids don't understand is that Too Short didn't get to where
he is by pimping or selling drugs, he got to where he is by some simple rules
discussed in his song "Gettin it".
First of all, an important ingredient to the song is how it appeals to
kids. With it's ghetto beat and monster bass the song is something that kids
feel cool listening to. This is his first success ingredient, getting the
attention of his audience so that they will listen to his message. His message
is of course the best thing about the s ....

The Beatles
1296 Words - 5 Pages.... John
Lennon, who had an uncanny ability to compose songs at a moments notice with an
inspiration that others missed. He pushed the members of the band during their
touring years and was able to achieve the best possible results from the group.
The band began playing in a Music Hall style that is very effective for
the audiences but was lacking on their albums. Together with Paul, John began
to evolve the band. As the years began to pass, the band was obviously
beginning to grow musically. They had moved from simple lyrics like "Love me Do"
to harshly aware reflections of life in their home country in "Eleanor Rigby"2.

Coro Concert Experience
591 Words - 3 Pages.... The Coronation Mass, K. 317, composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, was considered to have been written for the anniversary of the coronation of an image of the Virgin. Mozart wrote this composition in 1797 at the age of twenty-three. The six works of the Coronation Mass are: Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Benedictus, and Agnus Dei.
My favorite piece was Gloria. It was louder and more powerful then the rest. The parts were sung by women then men in a beautiful combination. The music was soft and intimate then quickly getting louder and more powerful. “Gloria” was trying to make a point in a almost begging manner. My favorite was the Amen at the end, and how it w ....

With that, Pearl Jam edge into "Sometimes," the fragile ballad that opens No Code. "Seek my part," Vedder sings, pushing ou ....

younger generation. Unfortunately this fact does not comfort someone when
listening to Snoop Doggy Dog or Ice Cube talk of sex, violence, beatings, and
suicide.
Hollywood, the country's Mecca for TV and movies, is another
contaminated disaster area. This area has given us hero's such as Clint
Eastwood, Humphrey Bogart, and Bruce Willis. Once filmmakers would evoke sexual
interests through eye contact or a touch of the leg. Today cinematographers
resort to graphic sexual acts and horrific beatings. A poll by Newsweek stated
that sexual moderation and fidelity are normal for both married people and for
those who ....
