Real 1950s Rock &Roll, Rockabilly dance from lindy hop !

The Music Genre




My music genre is Rock and Roll-Elvis
This is a genre of popular music that originated and evolved in the the United States of America during the late 1940s and early 1950s.A early from of rock n roll was rockabilly from the traditional Appalachian Folk Music and Gospel.
During the time, the Super Star is Elvis Presley.
He is a super star, and his fan think he is the king of the Rock n Roll. He was born on the January 8th,1935 , and he was death on August 16th 1977.

My fav. song Firework Katy Perry

I like a song name is Firework from the singer Katy Perry.Firework is the name of this song, and the lyric has a good meaning to send to everyone. The song is about everybody has to look like a firework because many people will lose their dream by faced some hard event.Also, some people has a sickness , then they began to give up their life. This song is helping people to think about something isn't negative.I felt so disappointment of my education, and I wanted to tried my best to doing something ,then I will have to face a lot of problem that i have never had before.My cousin just sent this song to my Face book and listened this song. Even this song is normal ,or nothing is special to them. I think it helps me a lot because I try my best in this semester. however, how the problem will be that much difference, i will not easy to give up my dream. Also, my heart and my dream will be like a firework that much wonderful. I f people would want to give up something , then this song maybe help you to find out what goal you want.

Firework Lyric
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting throught the wind
Wanting to start again

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in

Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you
Cause there's a spark in you

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gunna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Katy Perry Firework lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/katy-perry-firework-lyrics.html

Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe-awe-awe"


Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on slet your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe-awe-awe

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

The Reflection of HOB

We have a field trip to the House of Blues, unfortunately, I was late to the lobby, and all of my classmate were going to the House of Blues.Even though I knew I lost this chance to realize more about the blues, I think the good news about my friends help me to take a video that I cloud easy to understand about the things of blues. The country music,Rock music,R&B, and Rap, all kinds of song were organize from blues. From the classmate gives me some information of the House of Blues, which I began to know about it is about.Music is relate with the popular culture. People who come from the Africa that they created the Blues. Because of the blues, people began to create some songs are about the race, culture, and gender that all of they think about in their mind. They also want to share or used the word for let people to understand them.Maybe I could not have more cool experience in this field trip but I still learn something from the class of classmate share their experiences for help me to write this reflection.

my second reflection

this is my second reflection to think about what I learned in this unit. This unit is explaining and showing to us, what popular culture is about the common and population at large not elite or chosen few. The popular culture has four elements include objects, people, event, and places. I think we have to understand what popular culture is we have to understand culture, influence, and impact on individuals. The important part also is we have to realize what America goes on. I learn a lot whatever personal presentation or group presentation and realize some reasons why some normal people could be a successful pop star. Beginning of this unit, I have remembered a question is asking me, how much percentage for American or my identity. During the times, I chose 30% to be American, and I think I still keeping my own identity. I remembered we have an assignment was about the Fads from 1950s to 2000s, before this Fad presentation, I have no idea what about Fad is. After I heard my classmates’ presentation, I have an AHA moment. I think I have a hard time or need Ms Gitte could explain more things were how to study pop culture, or it makes me can be more scene.
