Week 5 - Nancy (With the Laughing Face) - Frank Sinatra

Image
      When you hear this song, it's easy to see why the ladies swooned all over Frank Sinatra. What he lacks in range, he makes up for in just suave and elegance. Just silky smooth. The lyrics he sings are very predictable and typical for a love song but because it's Frank Sinatra, no one cares! He can speak gibberish and people would love it simply cause of his voice. I love the orchestra in this song as well. I think they deserve a lot of the credit.  It's cool how they followed Sinatras lead throughout the entire song. It takes a talented ensemble to be able to follow the lead of a jazz singer because they're very fluid with the way they sing songs. Every jazz singer puts their own spin on songs to make it their own. If you listen to other versions of this song, the general melody is the same but they add their own personality to it. Throughout the song, you can hear a harp being played and the sound of it makes me think of someone entering the gates of heaven. Th...

Week 3 Blog Post - Cheek to Cheek by Irving Berlin

Image
      The first thing I noticed about this song was the different instruments it had! I heard some violins (or some type of string instrument), muted horns AND normal horns, and a piano. It's cool to hear the different layers of music in the one song. The more you listen, the more you start to recognize. Some songs, try this method of using a lot of layers. About half the time, it sounds like there's just too much going on. But listening to this song, it all blends together so well. To do that well, especially in this particular day and age, makes it that much more impressive because they didn't have the editing ability or the artificial instruments we have now. The ensemble really came together on this one.     I also just recognized how happy this song makes me! It probably has to do with the fact that it's overall upbeat and cheerful. Irving Berlin compares dancing with your significant other to being "heaven". It's a very relatable feeling! We have a t...

LB 12 - It All Falls Down by Kanye West

Image
      There's a lot you can say about Kanye West about one thing you can't say is that he doesn't know how to make good music. This is one of my personal favorites by him. He is one of the greatest music producers ever and this song is proof of that. It is one of his simpler pieces of work but it has such a nice vibe to it. The guitar mixed with that bass line just sounds so good. Then comes the drums and 808's, which Kanye is known for.      He addresses some topics that are so relevant today. He talks about how the evils of money and how we buy materialistic things just for the image. It all stems from being self conscious and he admits that he's a victim of this mindset. Love when artists are able to portray a message but also make the song a banger. One of my all-time favorite albums, it's a certified banger.
