Part 2 : My Favourite Music Genre ! <3 

Let's go to the next part . Btw , Happy New Year :3 ! I would like to share some of my favourite music genre .


How music affects your life?

Studies have shown that music can buoy your mood and fend off depression . It can also improve blood flow in ways similar to statins, lower your levels of stress-related hormones like cortisol and ease pain . Listening to music before an operation can even improve post-surgery outcomes.

Why is music important to society?

Music can promote relaxation, alleviate anxiety and pain, promote appropriate behavior in vulnerable groups and enhance the quality of life of those who are beyond medical help. Music can play an important part in enhancing human development in the early years.

Choosing the right music is important to me because each song has its own meaning and related to my life .



1 . Pop Rock 

vibes i felt when i'm listening to this song:

- watching the sunset
- watching your favorite youtubers when you were a kid
- you were going home from a vacation
- you're watching the rain while you drink your coffee
- a very peaceful day on the countryside
- going to your roof to see the sun rises
- watching the animes 
- living in a traditional japanese house
- vibing with your best friends in the beach/road
- reading a book besides your window
- laying on a field of sunflowers
- sitting on the train while the sun sets/rises
- looking at the beautiful clouds while you're in a plane
- sitting under a tree
- watching the night sky
- old me

Old song but reminiscent of childhood :')
This song hurts when you're missing someone you shouldn't be missing .

Let's be real, Justin's song 'Ghost' is lyrically great - many assume it's just about losing a loved one but its a double entendre of lyrics which makes it's meaning a little deeper than the surface level assumptions we all have.  Visually the song is about dealing with grief as a whole which after the last few years we've all come to know far too well because pre-COVID we had one of the worst winters for infection in 2018-19 and thereafter we had, well COVID and we've had soaring depression and suicide as well as losses in general over the last decade - though the video show a loss in itself and all the stages of grief - from the breaking to the development and self-growth through the pain.  The track in my eyes is more about losing someone in any regard, not just death, that much has been confirmed too with him (Justin) having said in an interview "It's about losing loved ones in other ways, whether in life or your heart and isn't exclusive to just people either" I think the song is becoming so rapidly popular because so many relate to the lyrics of the song and the video is just beautifully done too.  It's about time someone made a sobering truthful song about heartache or grief without it turning to a drug-sex infused rap song. This is grief, in its truest format, presented in an amazing well written and directed lyrical video.


2 . Indie Rock & New Wave

Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometimes, don't be afraid to express your feelings. Whatever you're going through please keep your head up🥰

This song is what it feels like when your crush is telling you about how THEIR crush doesn't like them back 


3 . Pop R&B

Heat Waves : this video is a love letter to live music and the culture and togetherness surrounding it. It was filmed at the peak of the lockdown in my neighbourhood in East London by the lovely people who live around me, just using their phones. These are people who are usually out at shows, in galleries, going to cinemas etc. These venues are left empty now, and many of them will not survive. The song is about loss and longing, and ultimately realizing you are unable to save something...and this video is about that but for art, being together, and human contact. Huge love and thank you’s to everyone who got involved and helped out. When everyone was leaning out of their windows filming, I felt that same sense of togetherness and spine-tingling energy that happened at live shows. It made the coldness of performing to an empty room with the band stuck on screens feel even more heart-breaking.


it's been a year since i've first listened to this song and until now my ears still don't get tired listening to this 🥺❤️





Part 3 : Your least interested in genre I would like to research more about

Hi ! This is my last part for this assignment :p  

After I did some research for genres music , I find some genre that actually attacted me .

1 . Jazz


What Is Jazz Music?


Jazz music is a broad style of music characterized by complex harmony, syncopated rhythms, and a heavy emphasis on improvisation. Black musicians in New Orleans, Louisiana developed the jazz style in the early twentieth century. Long considered one of the musical capitals of the United States, New Orleans fostered a robust ragtime and blues tradition. Early jazz musicians like Jelly Roll Morton and Louis Armstrong built on these blues and ragtime forms and improvised over them, which led to a brand new genre of American music.


Jazz rapidly spread throughout America, and before long, New York City became the jazz capital of both America and the entire world. The musical form evolved to embrace popular music standards, modal music, pop, rock, funk, and even true avant-garde compositions.



2 . Opera

An opera is a stage work accompanied by music in which all or most of the dialogue is sung. Opera was invented around the turn of the 17th century by a group of Florentine musicians who were trying to replicate the form of Greek theatre in which drama and music were combined. One of their members, Claudio Monteverdi, wrote the first great opera, Orfeo, in 1607. Virtuoso singing soon came to be a central element, and many operas give the singers the opportunity for spectacular vocal display. The subject matter of operas can be as diverse as that of plays, and the musical styles reflect the vast variety of all music. Operas may range from the small and intimate to the most extravagantly grand, but in the best of them, the music and drama work together to heighten the intensity of each other, making opera one of the most emotionally potent art forms


That's all :p ! I would like to apologize if there are any shortcomings in the blog this time 🥸 See u guys n Takecare !!!
