I listen to every kind of music, no matter if it is classical music or pop. But there is one exception: I don´t listen to metal. I don’t like it very much because you can’t hear the lyrics very often and for me the lyrics are a very important part of a song, because I want to know what the band is singing about. On the one hand I like to listen to new and popular music sometimes, but I am always the last who listens to them. I think it´s not that important to know every new song. On the other hand I like oldies and moreover I listen to that music my sister says I should listen to.
Music is very important for me, because I can chill when I listen to music but I don´t listen to it every second of my free time. I also want to talk to my friends. I know a lot of people who always have their earphones in their ears while they are talking to me and this is something I hate very much. In my opinion it’s very rude, because it seems as though this person doesn’t want to listen to your words.
As I said before the lyrics are very important but I think the beat or the voice of the singer is also very important. It´s horrible if the lyrics are very good but the singer doesn’t have a good voice or can´t communicate the meaning of the song.
I don´t have good equipment but for me it’s is okay, if I can listen to my music on YouTube or iTunes. Now my headphones are broken, but I don´t want to buy new ones, because the speakers on my computer aren’t bad. I don´t buy CDs very often, because I buy music on the Internet.
One of my favorite artists is Michael Jackson, because his lyrics are very good and he sang very well too. I don’t have a CD by him and so I always have to listen to him on YouTube. One of my favorite songs is “Smooth Criminal”. Here is the original music video:
