.... violent types of music like death metal, rap, and such. When the same young people hear the message, whether they take it seriously or not, it has or will somehow change the way in which they think, act, and fell on or about certain things. Some of the things hat are changed are important, like long-term life decisions, but others are not so important, like "What should I wear?" I think, that whatever type of music you listen to, you effect it and it effects you. LET IT BE ~ The Beatles ~ 1970 When I find myself in times of trouble Mother Mary comes to me Speaking words of wisdom, let it be. And in my hour of darkness She is standin .....

.... to heaven that I’ll ever be,” that shows that the girl is the most important person in the world to him. That shows how strong of an emotion love is. All that this guy can think about is the girl he has fallen for. When he is with the girl, she has his undivided attention. “All I could taste is this moment,” this line is saying that he lives for the moments he is with her. He doesn’t think about the past or future, just the present time he spends with her. I’m convinced that this guy is really in love with her. This song is so moving it makes you believe that this really is in love with the girl. With this love, there is tragedy. “And you can’t .....

.... and political contexts, plopping itself down in front of every parent with young children. This large, main audience makes music censorship an important issue, where both sides must choose their words carefully in order to have the greater impact.

.... it is very well done and it helps me remember god times I had. I think there are a few different themes in this song. The lyrics tend to show all kinds of different emotions someone can have. The lyrics are very important in a song and in this song they express really strong feeling. Love is symbolized in the song through the words that are song. The words help say a message and tell you how easily you can fall in love but how painful it can be to fall back out. It lets you understand love more I think and shows you how strong love is. It really lets you hear the pain love can cause and how much you go through when love is destroyed. The song symbol .....

.... prisoner. It is something that you seldom or never find. When she sings; I went to far, I'm sorry …. So let anyone amongst you cast the first stone. 2 She obviously knows she is part of a minority here but finds the matter important enough speak out for. I admire her for taking that stand by singing out for what she herself believes in. The lyrics are not merely someone's state of mind it actually confronts you with certain questions. The finger is pointed at the listener; I think guilt and innocence they are a matter of degree what might be justice to you might not be justice to me.3 This is a clear example of DiFranco addressing the listener.

.... dorm lounges for other students and they realized they had complementary musical styles and tastes, so they decided to form a band. Trey’s high school band experiences made him realize they would need a group of committed players who would be willing to practice intensely and extensively in order to master the complicated music and the improvisational style that they sought to achieve. The first person they recruited was a freshman drummer named Jon “Fish” Fishman. One day, Trey walked by Fish’s room while he was practicing, and asked him to join the band. He agreed but he also played in another band at the time. Fish taught himself how to play the drums .....

.... Brahams, and Wolf attained a new union between music and poetry.  Furthermore, a large number of leading composers in the 19th century were extremely interested and articulate in literary expression, and leading Romantic novelists and poets wrote about music with deep love and insight. The conflict between the ideal of pure instrumental music (absolute music) as the ultimate Romantic mode of expression, and the strong literary orientation of the 19th century, was resolved in the conception of program music.  Program music, as Liszt and others in the 19th century used the term, is music associated with poetic, descriptive, and even narrative subje .....

.... conductors have held the baton since Plowe retired and the Orchestra has grown to nearly double its original size, but Orchestra’s vision has remained essentially unchanged, "…to enrich the mind, life and culture – the soul – of our community."
