I listen to many different kinds of music. I'm the kind of person you'll find listening to broadway one second, and rap the next second. I've always loved music, but over the past year I've really gotten addicted to it. For my birthday this past year I got an old fashioned record player/vinyl player. Having a record player means a few things. 1. You're really only going to be able to listen to old stuff (unless vinyls are released of new/present albums..) and, 2. You learn to appreciate how music was back then. I feel like now, music is just something people do to get famous. But back then artists sang what they felt, and what was important to them. That doesn't happen very often anymore! Don't get me wrong, there's many people from now I like and listen to all the time! But just take into consideration, OLD doesn't mean BAD. Here are some of my favorite artists/bands and some of their songs from then and now.
