Music is used for many purposes. It can be used to make us feel a certain way, celebrate an event, or even to help us get through a tough. When trying to describe myself, I found that music can be very effective. The songs I show show the person I am and try to be.
For starters, I feel the song Happy by Pharrell Williams is a very accurate song to describe me.Those who know say I always have a smile on my face. I try to share my happiness with those around and make them happy as well. This theme is also shown in another song I choose, Good Life by OneRepublic. This song tells us that while we must work hard in life, it is a waste if we do not enjoy it. I feel this to be very true and I try to practice it. While I work very hard both in and out of school, I also make time to enjoy life. I do not feel life should only be about getting money, which is talked about in the son Money by Pink Floyd. The use of sarcasm in this song correctly tells what I feel. Just because you have an abundance of money does not mean you will be happy. Another trait i fell i have is that I am a good, reliable friend. The song You’ve Got a Friend in Me by Michael Buble shows this. If any of my friends ever need help with anything at all I am there to help. I feel thats what a good friendship is two people will try at all means to help other the other person. Aloe Blacc’s The Man is also a very good song that describes me. This saying means that you are have or are on pave to doing great things. I have always been a good student and people often say this about me.
A trait i feel many songs talk about that describe me is resiliency. I will never back down from a challenge no matter how difficult which is why the song Won’t Back Down by Eminem is a perfect fit. We must not run a challenge we face but rather do everything we can to try and overcome it. I learn from these challenges which make me stronger as person. The song Stronger by Kanye West say, “that that don’t kill me can only make me stronger” which shows how I learn from the hard obstacles that I may in my life time. I feel that the reason I have these trains is from my upbringing. I was born and raised in New York, so the song Empire State of Mind by Jay-Z applies to me. The song says, ‘If i can make it here i can make it anywhere”. Finally, the song Human by Christina Perri shows that while I may be strong I still have my flaws and week points. I am human just like anyone else and have moments of weakness.
