Music...The universal language

Music. Just the word brings back memories and moments that would not be the same without the gentle lullaby of a song.

I can remember back into a the time when I was three years old mostly because of the rock music my mom played. I just hear a song and it brings me right back to that time and I can always remember.

This year, my junior year at California Baptist University, brought on a whole new set of resposibilities. One of which, being an editor on the school news paper. Music was assigned to me.

Now what about music? I could talk for days and days about the different kinds of music that I know about. Why some artists are better than others and why Miley Cyrus is icky.

What aspect of music should I talk about? The fact that so little artists these days just come from the nearest coffee shops or open mic nights.

I take it upon myself, this semester, to find an artist worth writing about. Someone who will be the next biggest star. Someone from our own backyard.

Music may be able to bring back the right kinds of memories and be a part of the worst kinda of moments, but music is always original in some way. I intend to find that here. Riverside, here.

  1. Music- I hear you there! I love music and it takes me back to so many places. A tough beat, especially when relating it to such a diverse CBU crowd.
