My Music List

 

Connie

      We always have our own ways to relax in the busy days. My father likes to go running in the morning. My mother likes to go shopping on weekends. My older sister likes to read in the afternoon. My younger brother likes to play basketball after class. Doing our preferable activities, we can reduce stress from studying and work. Likewise, I like to listen to music at night, which can help me forget the unpleasant things in the day. In different situations, I will listen to different types of music. The three favorite types of music on my list are pop music, light music, and soul music.

      The first type I like is pop music. “Pop music” derives from the abbreviation of “popular music.” Young people like this genre of music. The major singers in my list are Phil Collins and Taylor Swift. Their songs in my list are “You’ll Be in My Heart,” “True Colors,” “Can’t Stop Loving You,” and “Take Me Home.” When I hear this type of songs, I will sway my body and follow the beat. I feel more energetic and reinvigorated after listening to the music.

     The second type I like is soul music. Catchy rhythms stressed by handclaps and extemporaneous body moves are an important feature of soul music. The major singers in my list are Adele and Mariah Carey. Their songs in my list are “Someone Like You,” “Make You Feel My Love,” “Rolling in the Deep,” and “Set Fire to the Rain.” I prefer to do nothing when I listen to soul music. Soul music helps me calm my ruffled mind. I can just focus on listening to the music and not think of anything.

     The last type I like is light music. Light music usually features shorter orchestral pieces and suites designed to appeal to a wider audience than serious compositions. The major singers in my list are Yiruma and Yanni. Their famous pieces include “River Flows in You,” “Kiss the Rain,” “The Moment,” and “Time Forgets.” I like to listen to the music while I am reading. I feel peace and calm when listening to light music.

     The three types of music in my list are pop music, light music, and soul music. I like to listen to music in any time and any place even when I am reading, sleeping, writing, driving, and walking. I think music has mysterious power because it gives people comfort and strength. I like to listen to music because music makes me calm down. Different moods are suitable for different kinds of music. When I open my music list, I know I can get great enjoyment or a good rest.
