Crash my party. Luke Bryan
Luke Bryan Crashes Parties
It’s always said to be what fills the American dream, and by that I mean music. Music is what takes you to places that only can be found in your mind from a song. I wanted to write about this album because it’s one of the best albums as far as looking into meanings of songs. All Luke Bryan’s songs have a story behind them; besides the first one on the album, which is My Kinda Night. I also have learned a lot about him, just through following him on Twitter. He is a huge family man, which is very impressive to me and makes me want to listen to him that much more. He is what I consider to be your typical southern guy. Like myself he believes in having family first and career second.
The third time may be the charm, but for Luke Bryan, the fourth is the monster. All Crash My Party, this album is geared to change the Georgia boy into one of the select group of country’s superstars. All the imagery Luke uses in his music become accustom to his lifetime and his style of music: tanned legs swinging over tailgates, starry Southern nights, red Georgia clay and an endless supply of cold brews.
Two songs have “beer” in their titles, and both are catchy and clever. “Beer in the Headlights” tells a story of a beautiful woman partying with Luke in a country area and how he wants to see her all night drinking a beer in front of his truck, hints the titles name, and “Drink a Beer,” is a song about a falling family member, and how he’s not sure of what to do, so he does what he and his brother would have done which is drink a beer. He sets scenes such as ‘Gonna sit right here until the sunset disappears and drink a beer.’
“We Run This Town” reflects on those days when being a teenager felt like being king of the world, or at least of your small town; I think we can all recall a time where we felt like that, I know I did. Luke really does an amazing job with painting a picture with his words and making the listener go back to a time where that

    Music has been around since the beginning of time. Many artists express themselves by writing songs to convey emotions, tell fictional stories, or to share their own experiences. The human mind attaches many senses and feelings to melodies; they are tied to moments in life. Everyone feels the same emotions even though people are all different and unique. Songs are written about all sorts of feelings such as happiness, sadness, angriness, and sorrow. For example, if a person is having a bad day he can find a song relating to how he is feeling.

    Though this album has a somewhat new sound and all new music, it very much captures the essence of their older albums, including Crash, showing the beautiful and influential songs that the group has been writing and producing for the last twenty-one years. One new song featured in the interview, “Gaucho” is about “[fighting] for what we believe in” among other important ideas. Other songs such as “Sweet” are written about less pressing issues that remain just as influential. As time has gone on, things have changed for the group, and that…

When I listen to Johnny Cash's deep, guttural voice singing this song, I can almost feel prison walls closing in around me.…

    Blink-182

    The legend that is blink-182 started way back in 1992, by Mark Hoppus (bass, vocals), Tom Delonge (guitar, vocals) and Scott Raynor (drums). Origionally just called blink, they were forced to change their name when an Irish techno band also called blink threatened to sue them. Although there are countless rumours of what the 182 stands for, ranging from the number of times certain words are said in movies to numbers that relate to where they live to the number of times that they have performed various sexual acts, the truth is that it is really just a number that they choose pretty much at random and thought sounded good.…

    The energy and vibe at the Drake concert was so live and intense. The vitality of the crowd was very immense. Although he is known as Drake, the superstar singer, rapper, songwriter and composers birth name is Aubrey Drake Graham. Mostly famous for writing flirtatious songs to attract the attention of many female celebrities, Drake offers a new artistic wrinkle in comparison to MCs who can only rhyme. Beyond being able to carry a note and his lyrical dexterity, it’s the directness and contemplation that underlines Drake’s words that implement him to associate with fans on a more profound level. And that is typically what his musical selections varied from; songs that revolved around the expression of his feelings. His first mixtape, So Far Gone was a temperamental collection of tracks that discloses the anecdote of his ascent into adulthood. Girl troubles, pains of growing and uncertainty are the emotions apprehended on the set. It was a rare craft and as he and producer Noah Shebib sampled from many well-known rap tracks and ambiguous hipster sounds to create a pop shine that was absorbable for the masses. And the other albums, Thank Me Later, Take Care and Nothing Was the Same were his glorified pieces of work that gracefully displayed his feelings and I could here every heart felt emotion in the lyrics.…
