Some facts

Music was NEVER invented. Birds sing, water drips, leaves rustle, and fire crackles.

Music was discovered not invented. Everyone hums, taps, beats, etc. Music can include ANY sound. The earliest humans would make music by putting sounds together which they enjoyed. This could be beating on something or clapping, humming, whistling--making sounds. 

Music; world

When we listen to music, it's like that we are not aware of what is happening around us. When we put our earphones, it's like we are out of our world.

Music is Life

"Music is my life. The lyrics are my story"

As we all know, some songs are related to our life. It's like our own story. The lyrics express how we feel.

Grow Old With You by Daniel Padilla

"I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad"
This means that you'll do anything for that person in order for him/her to be happy.

"All I wanna do is grow old with you"
You'll do anything for a person because you want to grow old with him/her.

Unconditionally by Katy Perry

I think that Katy Perry tells us to be free, accept and just love everyone who's out there because love can really save a life and make us feel just unconditionally loved.

"I'll take your bad days with your good, walk through this storm I would, I'd do it all because I love you"

I'll take the bad days because they're a part of us and the good days are worth the bad ones.

Coldplay

Coldplay are a British rock band formed in 1996 by lead vocalist Chris Martin and lead guitarist Jonny Buckland at University College London (UCL). After they formed under the name Pectoralz, Guy Berryman joined the group as a bassist and they changed their name to Starfish. The band renamed themselves "Coldplay" in 1998.

Trouble by Coldplay

"Trouble" is a song about what happens when those feelings finally come out and how it changes the friendship for the worse. But you can't choose who you fall in love with. It's as if his emotions spun this web that he's caught in.

In this song,  a spider web is used to portray the person's feelings. The spider web represents guilt from a past relationship with someone. 

"A spider web is tangled up with me... the thought of all the stupid things I said". 

The person regrets about the things he has said or done to this person. The person's feelings seem complex, making it appropriate to use a spider web with so many different patterns to express himself.

"Never meant to cause you trouble... never meant to do you harm". 

Now he is left with this "spider web" of regrets for this person.

Human by Christina Perri

"But I'm only human and I bleed when I fall down"

"Your words in my head, knives in my heart. You build me up and then I fall apart".

These lines explain that he may not feel the same way she does. He may tell her things that build her up and make her feel hopeful. But he does or says something causing her to doubt how he feels.

Let Her Go by Passenger

Let Her Go is a song that makes you understand what it means to lose things you take for granted.

“Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low.” 

This is a reference to happiness. Without feeling happy, you can’t feel unhappy. To go from a high to a low is something we can all relate to.

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
‘Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast

Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
‘Cause you loved her too much
And you dived too deep

-For me, he still feels the same sadness of missing her. He thinks and dreams of her frequently but it doesn’t bring her back to him in reality.

I can sum this song up into one simple phrase. “You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.” 

Invisible by Hunter Hayes

Invisible is a song is about tomorrow that you'll see a better day, that you're not alone, and you're not invisible. It's about people going through hard times and bullying. People will always say things about you and leave you out. One day, it will come to an end and the pain will be gone.

"Someday you'll look back on all these days and all this pain is gonna be invisible."
I think this line means that no matter how hard things get, you can't give up because once you get through it, you'll look back and it'll be like it wasn't even there. It will be invisible.

One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.

When music hits us, we feel no pain. We call it soft music. We listen to music at night so we can sleep.

"Music helps me forget about my problems"

"Music helps me forget about my problems"

When we listen to music, we forget our problems. Most of the time, when we are sad or depressed, we listen to music because it helps lessen our problem. We can listen to pop music or happy songs to forget our problems. We understand the lyrics of the song when we are emotional.
