Falling in Love With Music…Again

            When I was in preschool, I loved music. I listened to all the country music I could. I had many tapes and a little toy recorder to play them. Then when I entered elementary school, I lost touch with music. I really don’t know what happened. I just stopped listening to music of all kinds. This continued through elementary school, middle school, and into high school. Then when I was meeting people my freshman year, the subject of music always seemed to come up. When I told them that I really don’t listen to music, they were all shocked. Most of them proceeded to tell me what they liked and told me to look it up. Some even gave me mixed CD’s. I did not really enjoy any of the suggestions, but I realized what music could to do people. I then started to look for music that I enjoyed.

            I stumbled upon ‘Back in Black’ by AC/DC at the beginning of my junior year. I was hooked. I fell in love with the guitar solos, the drum solos, the lyrics, and the soul that the band put it each and every song. This combination of musical qualities was what I was looking for. AC/DC was not the first band to be able to do all of these things in one song, but it could be argued that they were the first to do it for an entire album. Every single song is fantastic. It is far and away my favorite album of all time. After I found this album, I started looking for similar music. This was not as hard as finding music when I was not sure what I was looking for. I was able to find individual songs that I enjoyed, but there was no album that contained all good songs that Now I am listening to music again. I always listen to music while I am doing homework or relaxing. It has become a part of my life again.
