Music In The Classroom

Can Music Change Your Attitude?

Have you ever had a bad day? Have you ever felt totally alone? Did you listen to some genre of music to help change your mood?
Music has changed my mood many times in my life; and it all depends on what kind of mood I am in that determines what genre I choose to listen to. If I'm angry, I might listen to rap or rap/rock, soul/rock, or edgy pop music. If I'm feeling lonely, I might listen to gospel, blues, or jazz. When I'm in a good mood, I might listen to anything from dance music, disco, neo-soul, gospel, and etc.

Who's your favorite Artist?

We all have favorite music artists and we all have our reasons.  I am a very emotional person and I like artist who bring a lot of emotions to their music as well.  One of my favorite artist of all times is Donna Summer!  I remember being in Alabama and washing clothes in the washing machine on the back porch, when my niece came to me and told me about a song on the radio at that very moment by an artist by the name of Donna Summer.   The song on the radio was "Love to Love You Baby" and I fell in love!  She has a strong and versatile voice and she believes in God and I can relate to that. 

One of my favorite Gospel artists is Shirley Caesar because she sings with a lot of spirit as well.  There is something about a person singing and making music with all their heart and soul that sends chills down my spine.  I try to give my all as well when I am praising God or singing period! 

I want to know, who is your favorite artist and why?
