Favorite Songs

Songs and music are things I really like to listen to. When I listen to my mp3, after a while I feel that I begin to get almost absorbed into the music. Sounds have always fascinated me and in music there are so many different styles and themes each song holds. I don't have a favorite particular song or artist, but I like songs with styles like rock and jazz which capture me the most. What is your favorite song/artist/style?

The Birth of Jazz

The birth of jazz came from a combination of ragtime and blues in New Orleans. I wonder how the people there got that one combination because I am thinking of many other possibilities that could have come out with a joining of blues and ragtime. Maybe it was the culture living in New Orleans that contributed to the making of jazz or the status of the economy at the time. Who knows!!!!!
