Snapshot #4 by Regan Endsley

Music to me, is a way to express yourself, and a chance to relate the story of songs to your own life. Mostly to me music gives me great memories. If I hear a song I know it will bring me back to a flashback of a time when i was listening to that song. An example is when I hear the very old song by Taylor Swift, You Belong With Me when I was younger whenever me and my mom would listen to that song and it says "she wear short shorts, i wear t shirts, she's cheer caption and I'm on the bleachers." My mom would always point at herself for the good thing and point at me for my bad i would do the same to her, its just something i always remember doing when we heard that song. Also the song We Will Rock You by,  by Queen was the intro song when we ran out for volleyball so everything i hear that song I think of my volleyball season. There are many songs that I can listen to and think of a memory, those are just some examples. My favorite kind of music is hip/hop and rap, mostly anything you see on the top 50 charts. My currently favorite musican is Drake, a rapper, I just love his music and the story he raps about in his songs. That is what music is and means to me.
This is Drake, my favorite rapper. His most viewed and popular song is "Hotline Bling"
not personally my favorite mine is probably "Marvin's Room" He is my favorite because i just
like the way he raps and tells a story and me and one of my friends have been obsessing over him since
he first started rapping so the connection just stuck.

  1. I also share the same love for rap. Your writing was at it's best when you described how music can evoke memories. "a chance to relate the story of songs to your own life. Mostly to me music gives me great memories. If I hear a song I know it will bring me back to a flashback of a time when i was listening to that song" It's such a cool feeling listening to a song and remembering how you felt in a different moment that you listened to it. Your caption for your photo is great, It shows what kind of drake songs you prefer and are not a fan of.

  2. I also listen to rap occasionally. Your writing is at its best I think when you're writing about the sonf you belong with me and describe how you and your mom reacted to the song, you make the image perfectly clear. "My mom would always point at herself for the good thing and point at me for my bad I would do the same to her, its just something I always remember doing when we heard that song". I think you image you chose clearly describes the type of music you listen to and your favorite artist. Your caption clearly states what the picture represents.
