SUMMARY

I like pop and pop rock music.

I tend to listen to music in my car, in my house and when I go out with my friends. But I prefer to listen to music alone because it relaxes me.

Choosing only three songs was very difficult to me. I’ve chosen the following songs by its video clip, song’s meaning and melody. These three aspects are very important to me.

The first song is called “Bad day”. Daniel Powter, its author, became famous in Europe with this song. As a dyslexic he had trouble at University studying music, so he learnt music by himself (on his own). As a little fact (curiosity), he’s always wearing a hat hiding a scar on his head made in a traffic accident.

“Fireflies” from Owl City is my second choice. Adam Young, Owl City’s singer, started playing music in his parent’s basement. He started his career uploading his music to MySpace. He became well-known by the ‘viral popularity’ and became famous with this song. He has made music for soundtracks like ‘Alice in Wonderland’ of Tim Burton and “Legend of the Guardians: The owls of Ga’hoole”.

Finally, my last choice is “100 years” from Five for Fighting. Five for fighting is an expression in ice hockey when a player receives a five-minute penalty for fighting. John Ondrasik is the singer of Five for Fighting. He’s a singer and a songwriter. He writes and co-writes music for other artists like Backstreet Boys and Josh Groban. Also, he has made songs/music for movies such as August Rush, Chicken Little, Jimmy Neutron or The Blind Side.

Which one do you prefer?
