Post 5



Arts.

Dear all,


This is our second chosen topic, you chose a very broad topic, and I remember telling you about the freedom you will have for this particular post.
I will personally talk about some of my favorite ways in which art expresses itself.

First, Poetry: I believe words are very powerful, and arranging them into beutiful descriptions of reality is something I enjoy observing. I would say it is the ability of saying things in a way that not only says what words say, but also suggests a deeper meaning, as if it was something that requires you to have a second look to fully appreciate it. 

Second, Music:

Not only because of melodies and armonies, also because is a way of giving poetry a different type of road to go by. I really appreciate great musicians, people who are able to sing the exact words that describe feelings and emotions many of us have felt. 


For me, music is many things. I really love listening to it, and I even like singing.
I believe I can sing, even though I'm clearly not a talented singer. In my opinion, singing has to do with emotions, and not only techniques and voice. So maybe everyone could be a singer, if they found a song they could truly sing from their hearts.

Now, from the listener point of view, I think music nowadays has been corrupted by the market,  I mean, the music industry. Most of nowadays musicians seem to sing in a very shallow way, and the styles and lyrics that are on fashion these days, are not very good IMO.

My favorite music styles are rock, reggae and hip hop, but I do enjoy lots of different styles and artists. For a long time now, I've been listening to Sublime almost every day. Have you heard this band before?
Here's one song! it's a cover, but a good one, I hope you like it :)

So that's it, now that I proofread my post I realize I didn't mention any visual expressions, I do love paintings and sculpture, but I'm more of an observer than a creator haha. Finally I would add memes to the art category, you can find real jewels online these days.
what will your post be like?

  6. It's true, musicians have become industrial musicians, but I think it depends to the artist, and sometimes, the music genre.

  7. The song that you have posted brought me back a lot of feelings !! I used to listen bands like that. I really like the original version because I like "Descendents", "H2O", and similars...
    You had definitely surprised me !
    I also like another song, which lyrics are similar... perhaps you've already know but if you have not, you can give it a glance. "Unconditional", of H2O.
