The Art of Listening Reproduction of originals is a quality that exists in all parts of life. Much of what is created doesn't have (quality of being fresh and new) it is a re-thinking and re-doing of a previous original idea. In the essay written by Jeff Turpentine, “Why Some Covers Disappoint”, he discusses how challenging it is to determine the quality of a cover song. As described by the author, these reproductions often leave the listener with little gratification. The author goes on to explain
Guitar I was as calm as a cucumber. Okay, not really. I was fidgeting with my shirt and guitar strap between my fingers like crazy, my palms were starting to sweat, and I had butterflies in my stomach flying around in a chaotic frenzy. But other than that, I was as calm as a cucumber.

When you think about 90’s grunge several bands come to mind, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, and Bush. One of the greatest and still talked about today is Nirvana! Nirvana brought an intense passionate sound that listeners weren’t accustomed to. You felt their music, and whether you liked them or not they were everywhere.

The Effect of Music on Behavior Music has a huge impact on the everyday lives of individuals in America today. It is an important part of the sociological self, which causes a person to feel and act in a certain manner. Sensual guitar playing, a suggestive song, hard rock power chords, or a tune from the past are all highly powerful forces in shaping one's actions. I have taken a particular interest in the way that different genres of music affect student's actions at this university. This
The Role of Women of Color in The Feminist Movement When people think of feminism they usually think of Susan B. Anthony and women’s suffrage maybe even the Seneca Falls Convention. People then think about the Women’s Liberation Movement of the 1960’s and the sexual revolution, both of these were extremely important but, they both lacked something very crucial, women of color.

Kayapó’s media use is particularly extensive, has pointed out, and possessed a deep understanding of the performative function of representation. As a result, the scope and impact of the Altamira media event was stunning by almost any measure. Not only were the Kayapó organizers able to mobilize broad indigenous participation (more than 600, with additional support from NGOs, politicians, celebrities and citizen protestors) that lasted several days, but media reports of the protest were filled with

Hard as it may be to believe, it has been MANY years since Nirvana's release of Nevermind, the album that most people who still could be referred to as Generation X-ers consider the seminal alternative rock LP of all time. Nirvana's crunching guitars and mangled lyrical stylings may not have the lasting artistic influence of, say, Bach, but for many people the band's widespread commercial and critical success marked a key turning point in radio rock n' roll.
