Why I Chose This Topic

The reason I chose this topic is, because my life is revolved around me listening to music. If there is a moment I can listen to music I turn it on, and it's turned up loud. Since elementary school, when I had a CD player I loved listening to music. I used to listen to the same CD over and over. Then, in middle school I had received my first IPod. This is when I really started listening to music into depth. I was listening to bands that my older brother was listening to, and I loved the way it sounded. It inspired me to start going online to YouTube, and looking up songs I knew. After, I would look and see the similar songs that they had on the side of the page, and this is how I was discovering more and better music. I started out listening to alternative music, and then I started getting into the harder music that got me pumped up. This was great for me, because I played football, basketball, and baseball. Before every game or practice, I would listen to the songs that had my blood pumping, and got me moving.

  When I wake up for work or school, early in the morning, I like to put my music on while I'm getting ready. The music soothes my grouchy mood in the mornings, and lets me carry on with the rest of my day in peace, by waking me up with what I want to hear. I mostly listen to pop punk music, hard rock, and scream-o. I have songs to listen to when I'm having an average day, or when I'm jamming out, and want something more heavily. When I hang-out with friends, I'm the guy that is always playing the music, and if I'm not I'm telling my friends what songs to play. I'm in such a better mood when I'm listening to music. Going to work sucks, but it makes it that much better, when I can listen to my music, and do my own thing.

Music puts me in my own little world. The best atmosphere I have ever been is at concerts. I have been to at least six or seven concerts, and this includes two years of going to warped tour. Every concert I have gone to has had the best energy. Everybody at the concert is there for the same reason I am; that is to listen to great live music and sing along while jamming out.

Here is a link to one of my favorite songs, and bands, at this moment. I hope you like it. This is Beartooth with their song called "The Lines". I don't hold the copyrights for this song, the record label "Red Bull Records" and "Beartooth" own this song.
