This week in class we listened to Paul McCartney and his album after he left the Beatles. He left the Beatles cause he had kept them together to long and was tired of the band leaving an him having to bring them back together. The first song was unexpected cause it was only a couple of seconds long and the way it sounded I thought it was a long song and I wish it was cause I liked the tune and the beat. The hole album was pretty jumbled and everywhere. But one song was crazy good. "All things must pass" was his really good song. This album is amazing because he played everything In this album to make it. Paul McCartney is a crazy musician.  

What l have been doing music wise is playing the ukulele.  It is difficult to do cause it is my first time to play and instrument with strings, but I and still playing and learning. The trouble I have is switching cords but I keep going on YouTube tutorials an its really helpful. What I want to learn is "white blank page" by Mumford and Sons. It's not to hard cause its only a couple of cords but they are hard to play cause its a lot of switching cords. It's also hard cause I don't have a lot of time in the day cause of school and homework. But I keep trying and I also need to get with some of my friends that play to get them to help me play and learn. But that is what I have been doing in terms of music.

This week in class we watched a movie a about copyrights. It is crazy what the people can do to you if you download music illegally. They can sue you for almost everything you own. If you make mashup it could cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars if you get caught. Most times they won't sue you cause it is expensive so they will send you an email to stop and they will threaten to sue. Also In in the movie it showed us how Disney sued many people for having there characters on there property or turning them into there own and making a story an publishing it to the public, that happened to one of the guys in the movie. I think Copyrights have taken it to far.

What I have been listening to for a wile now is a bunch of different things. I mostly stick to listening to Mumford and Sons, they never get old to me. I also bought a ukulele like a  few weeks back and what I want to do is learn how to play some of there songs on it. I also have been listening to some kid cudi and I like some of his music. I really only like the beat and tone of his songs but the lyrics are not what I like the most. But there are some lyrics that are pretty clever and those are the songs that I like and are fun to sing along to. But Mumford is my music and it will be for a long long time!

My friend came out with his new album on Tuesday and it is really good. When he looked at it the next morning his album is #5 in his genres. The songs in his album are soft sounding but really good. They are only around two minutes short for most of them. My favorite song is called "brother". I think it is funny that its called brother cause when he talks to people he always call them brother. The song is about two friends and they are really close to each other and they both mean a lot to each other. I love his album and everyone should get it.

In class this week we listened to sly, and the family stone and black sabbath. I really like sly and the family stone. The songs on that album I have heard before and this was like a little refresher of what's good. When I was listening to I I remember just jamming to it with my friends I was also jamming In class to it, just a little less but still I loved it. I really don't like black sabbath all that much cause the style of music is not what I like and it is so ridiculously long.
