Sure, the lyrics are an important factor in helping the listener understand what the meaning behind a song is, but something like the tone, whether it's intense or mellow, helps better deliver or "transmit" the emotion that the composer is trying to portray.]]> 2017-10-12 20:36:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminezamora_garcia/3un68u8z96xc/wish/196632997 jasminezamora_garcia https://padlet.com/jasminezamora_garcia/3un68u8z96xc/wish/196636186 "Music can mimic the motion of feelings...It can reproduce the motion of a physical process according to the prevailing momentum: fast, slow, strong, weak, rising, falling..."

I haven't even experienced what Drake is singing about in this song and it still makes me sad as heck every time I listen to it... what is this sorcery?? It's the powerful musical element of transmission.]]> 2017-10-12 20:53:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminezamora_garcia/3un68u8z96xc/wish/196636801 jasminezamora_garcia https://padlet.com/jasminezamora_garcia/3un68u8z96xc/wish/196637895 John Lennon's soothing voice is showcased in this one song of many. He does a fantastic job at putting the listener in his shoes. Listening, I was able to feel what he was singing. He expressed the emotions of love in a very calm and relaxed tone, which helped me better digest the true behind the song.]]> 2017-10-12 20:58:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jasminezamora_garcia/3un68u8z96xc/wish/196637895
