To be
honest, it would be easier for me to tell which kind of music I don’t like
instead of the one I like. For example: I don’t like Metal music nor Rap. But
if I had to tell the kinds of music I hear the most I would choose Rock at the
first step, followed by pop, ballad and classical music in that order.
As I said
in previous post on this blog, my favourite band is The Beatles, but I hear a
lot of other bands and rock musicians like Coldplay, Oasis, Queen, Maroon 5,
The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, etc. And that’s only the rock bands that sing
in English, but I hear a lot of rock in Spanish too: Bands and artists like
Soda Stereo, Los Prisioneros, Andrés Calamaro, Los Tres, etc. Rock is the kind of music that I have
listed for more time during my life, as I listen to Beatles’ music since I have
memory, although most of the bands and musicians I named I only started
listening to them while I was in high school. There’s not a particular reason
of why I like to listen so much to rock music: I think that it just makes move something
inside myself.
But of all
the bands I mentioned the But for me The Beatles are simply above everyone:
They are just fantastic; the innovated in so many ways in musical industry,
they were charismatic as group and wonderful as musicians. They are so
important that they are not only listen to as any band, but studied as an important
part of the history of music.
Other kind
of music I love very much because of the beauty of its lyrics is Latin Music. I
love listening to Spanish song-writers like Joan Manuel Serrat and Joaquin
Sabina, or Chilean ones like Manuel Garcia.
To finish,
the last kind of music which I think deserves being mentioned is Classical
Music. I was around 12-years-old when I started listening to it regularly, but
at that time I never understood completely why I liked it. But now that I have
grown up I have fully understood the beauty of classical music: In classic
music there’s not just 3 o 4 musicians, there’s a full orchestra playing at the
same time perfectly coordinated the piece created for all of them by a single
mastermind! That’s the beauty of classical music from a philosophic point of
view: The complexity of it as result of the creativeness of the human mind searching
for perfection…
For me, the
most of important concerts I’ve attended had been the two of my favourites
musicians, English and Spanish respectively: Paul McCartney in 2014 (Which I already
mentioned in the previous post in this blog that I mentioned early), and Joan
Manuel Serrat in 2015.
