Despite this, I have an appreciation for all genres of music. I truly believe there is no such thing as a bad song &#8212; only closed ears. I think studying music helps to have a deeper understanding of why this is.<\/p>\n<p>For my blog, I am reviewing albums each week pertaining to a different genre and different decade. Each week, I listen to each track on an album, and dissect why the artist may have wrote it and the meaning behind it. I even discuss why they may have numbered the songs the way they did.\u00a0I compare and contrast how music has changed over time and use my own experiences as a musician and singer to influence my reviews. Also, each week in the &#8220;Song Bites&#8221; category, I&#8217;ll be posting links to my favorite song on each album.
