1. WHAT MUSIC MEANS
TO ME

2. what does
music mean
to me?
Music has always been a big part of my life from
when i was a baby i was brought up around singers
and mucisians with my family being very artistic
and musical. In particular i took alot of musical
influence from my dad who likes rock music and
rap metal appose to my mum who was much
more into house and r&b.
My musical tastes have changed quite a bit in the
past years changing from rock to pop then
indie.However i havnt grown out of my old music
instead i have just intoduced new genres into my
playlists.

3. 2004-2007
My first songs ide like to
share is Foofighters the
protender from the
2007 album

e& grace
and clint eastwood by
the gorrilaz growing up
these were the songs i
used to listen to in the

4. 2009-2012
My next choice will have
to be florence and the
machine shake it out
which was released in
2011. Shake it outs lyrics
has alot of meaning for
me "Its always darkest
before the dawn"
meaning things get better
even if things look like too
bad. My next choice is
Ben howards 2011 song
keep your head up both
of these songs got me
through a really hard time
in my life

For my last most recent
choice i chose to do two
iconic artists.Lana del ray is
currently my favourate artist
and i am in love with her
song young and beautiful
due to the instruments and
old feel it has to it my other
artist is taylor swift and
although i do not
particularly enjoy the
majority of her music i love
the song safe and sound for
its lyrics and overall
atmostphere
