so today we got an assignment to listne to a list of songs that range from the 1950's to the 1970's. I really like listning to the 1950's music. I'm weird. but its cute and fun. So I'm going to tell you about 3 different songs from that time.
1:
Bill Haley and His Comets: "Rock around the Clock"
This song was really fun. I have heard this since I was really little and have always loved it. Something about 50's music really puts me in a good mood, and this to me is the ipitimy of 50's music. Someone who has never heard this song, should know that it was made a long time ago when this was the style and not to judge it by that. They should know that this song is a mix of rock and country that at that time was verryyyyy popular and called Rockabilly!
2: Little Richard "Tutti Fruitti"
I love this song!! Another totally feel good song! I can be in any mood at at all and all i have to do is listne to little richard and im happy. I picked this song beacuse I though that it was intresting that Pat Boone redid and how badly he did it. (see #3) Someone who has never heard this song all you need to know: (insert movie of little richard here) (at home this weekened )
#3 Pat Boone Tuttie Fruitti:
I chose this song beacuse it is the perfect example of how 1950's record companies tried to "clean up" African American muscians and their music. This song was taken from Little Richard and rerecorded by Pat Boone. I really hated this version of this song. The whole appeal of the song is that it is electric and fun. All of that was sucked out of it when Pat sang it. Basically what someone would need to know is that what I've already said about the electricity of the song. Just listne to both versions.
