Reik
In my Spanish 3 class our teach showed us this song that I actually really liked. It's called "Inolvidable" by Reik. It's actually pretty funny because I don't even know that the title means, and I can't understand probably 95% of the song, but I love it. It's a pretty pop song that has a very good up beat throughout the whole song. I would have never thought I would find out a song that I like in Spanish but I was completely wrong. I think that if you like pop songs, you should check this out. Plus, if you can understand Spanish, you'll like it even more.
Massive attack
I really enjoyed listening to Massive Attack this week and the cool visuals that came along with it. I have never really been a person to listen to that type of music though. Their music seems to have a sort of hypnotic feel to it. I do think that the album we listened to by them would be a perfect type of music to listen to during long car ride at night like Mr. A said. I also think this would be a fun album to listen to when your working out or trying to get pumped up for something because the music is so soothing. This may be one one of my favorite albums we have listened to all year.

Aerosmith
My parents just recently bought a DVD showing the performances of Aerosmith in his concerts. I have been a fan of this band with some of their songs like "Crazy" and "I don't Want To Miss a Thing". After watching the DVD with my family, I would have to say that I would rather just listen to his music rather than see him perform the. The reason to this is because he seems like such a creepy freak when he performs. The way the lead singer just looks freaks me out. I also don't enjoy watching him make sexual gestures every 5 seconds in all of his songs. The lead singer does have a really good voice and I enjoy his music, but I'm just going to have to stick to listening to him rather than watching.
Hello
II have always been a Lionel Richie fan, but I have to say that I have never actually sat down and watched any of his music videos. When we were watching his music video to "Hello", I laughed my butt off. That music video was probably one of the most creepy and irrelevant videos I've ever seen. In no way would I have ever thought that that song was being sung to a blind girl. I am still very excited about seeing him at ACL though even though most of my friends could care less about him. I think he is a very different performer to come than usual to ACL so it's going to be interesting to see what crowd he attracts.

Freaky Friday to technology
I always seem to watch movies and then hear a song that i just love and have to have. For some reason I was watching Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan, and at the end of the movie I heard this song that sounded pretty cool. I had luckily just gotten this app on my phone called Shazam that will listen to any song being played, and it will tell you what it is. It told me that the song was "Brand New Day" by Forty Foot Echo. It's a really good song with a good story to it that I think a lot of people would like. I just love how now a days we have such great tools to help us find the music we like. Now I use Shazam anytime I want to know what awesome music I'm listening to.
Review of class
I thought that when Mr. A was showing us his friend that made a whole band of himself and robots, I thought it was going to be the most interesting thing. It turned out to actually be one of the most bizarre and creepy things I have ever seen. The robots looks so scary, and the voices that they were made to have made them sound like they were possessed. I would have to say though that I have never seen anything like that before, so I do give that guy a high five on creativity. I guess if you can't get along well with people yet you don't want to give up being part of a band, robots is for sure the way to go. Even though I can imagine how much time it takes to take all the robots everywhere you go and have to set them up. I think it would be cool to see this band perform because I've never seen anything like it and he seems to play very well know songs, but the robots may just be a little too creepy for me.
