I'm mainly trying to get people to tell me how they feel about some of these songs, what strikes them the most, what they like, what they don't, and which was their favorite and maybe which was their least favorite. I tried to choose a few songs that have a lot of meaning to it, so i could see if people here listen to music for the sound, or for the lyrics and are able to understand what i believe music trully is.

 

I personally believe there are three types of music.

 

Music for entertainment.

Music to take to heart.

Music for entertainment/heart.

 

I believe music needs to have both of these to be real music. But today no one listens to music for the lyrics and trully understand what the artist is talking about.
