Foreign Music
Music is always going to be important in cultures all over the world. There are different kinds of music for every culture in the entire world. It doesn't mean you have to be from a certain culture to like another cultures music. I heard a little bit of Japanese music when my roommate was studying and it was a little bit confusing. I also noticed there are not many or any foreign radio stations in the United States. I believe with our country being as diverse as ever it would be great to here foreign music in America. It would be quite interesting to hear different music in different languages. That music kind of put me in a good mood. The only problem is if you don't speak that particular language you are going to be like what the heck. Or does foreign music really exist maybe my roommate was joking with me but the music did sound a little weird.

AHHH! I love some foreign music. Thursday did a split album with Envy, I think they're Japanese, I love it, so unique.
ReplyDeleteAlso, a band called The Underneath played Taste of Chaos a couple years ago, I think from Japan as well. They were pretty awesome.
I know Sigur Ros are a popular band from Iceland that a lot of people in the States listen to.
I think it's a shame we aren't introduced to more foreign music. Sure, you can't understand the language, but if the band is good enough musically anyway, it doesn't matter. A lot of my favorite bands, I listen to for the music, not the lyrics. :-)
