Abbey Road 50th anniversary


 Abbey Road is the eleventh studio album by English rock band the Beatles, released on 26 September 1969 by Apple Records. The recording sessions were the last in which all four Beatles participated.

 "Something" was Lennon's favourite song on the album, and McCartney considered it the best song Harrison had written. Though the song was written by Harrison, Frank Sinatra once commented that it was his favourite Lennon–McCartney composition and "the greatest love song ever written".

What is your favourite type of music? Why?

  1. Music has been a way to disconnect and to relax from our stressful lives for ages. That is why, during the development of society there had been appearing different types and genres. It has been completely influenced by the necessity of the population.

    Personally, I don’t have a favourite type of music. I listen to different genres depending on the situation. However there are some others that I don’t really like, as for example Rap, or Rock and Roll.

    That way, I listen to Classical music when I play the violin or when I want to relax, Jazz when I’m playing the saxophone or even Pop in the radio. Despite that, I listen to Reggaeton too when I go to a party, but the genre that I listen the most could be Flamenco, I really love it!

    As you can see, I don’t listen just to one type of music. I consider myself addicted to good music and that is the reason why I don’t like to keep my attention only in one genre. In the end what really matters is to enjoy the music you are listening, don’t you think so?

  2. A Chip Off the Old Block

    When I was younger, my father used to turn on the radio for me every Sunday afternoon and he encouraged me to dance with him. It was always ridiculous but actually, we tended to stay up really late dancing on our own and I honestly enjoyed those moments. We also liked to sing out loud. Maybe we were just shouting, but this occcasion turned into a familiar tradition. That's why I love music.

    As for the first song I have ever learned, it took me ages to memorize the lyrics, but I tried my best and in fact, “We are the world” by Michael Jackson became one of my favourite songs and it fills me up with memories and peace. My father translated me the song so that I could understand it.

    Like him, I am keen on listening 80's pop songs. Sometimes I reckon I need to let myself go with a flow of thoughts, and this type of music allows me to remember my childhood. Bruce Springteen, Bon Jovi or Dire Straits are just a few examples of the singers I like the most. If I had to choose the most important song for me, I would say the one by Queen, “Love of my life”.

    As a student and a teenager, I listen to music everyday when I want to chill out after an exhausting day. Sometimes I don't mind what I listen to, I just prefer to calm donw and that's it. As you can see, my father has influenced me in terms of musical tastes.In addition, one day a wise man said to me: “You take after your father, A Chip Off the Old Block”.

  3. Music is the best solution to any problem in life. It is the universal language of the world and its soundtrack. It's amazing how a set of sounds is able to make us dance, laugh or even cry. I am also surprised by the different musical tastes that differenciate us among us... but there is always a song that we all sing together.

    I usually listen to all kinds of music except reggaeton, rap, trap and flamenco. The musical varieties that i mostly listen to are: pop (in Spanish and English), classical music, opera, waltz... I recognize that i like older music rather as i think it is much more elaborated than the current one.

    Regarding Spanish pop music, the artists i listen to the most are Melendi and Raphael, although Miguel Rios, Rozalén, Carlos Rivera and Luis Miguel and their boleros are also listened by me. In English i love listening to Adele, Lewis Capaldi,Frank Sinatra, Adra Day... Not a day goes by without listening to Queen, Andrea Bocelli, Andre Rieu, Montserrat Caballé or the couplet my grandfather taught me as a child.

    Since i was in my mother's belly, she played music to me, what i will thank her forever. I've been playing the guitar for 8 years and it's one of the most wonderful things that has happend to me. It is the only medicine that cures any disease and makes me create an own world free of problems. I think life without music would be a big mistake.

  4. I have several favorite types of music although the one i like the most is pop and i don't like is rock because they scream a lot and my head hurts.

    I like a lot of pop singers such a Sebastian Yatra on Shawn Mendes but i love. India Martinez's songs are another type of music they are flamenco .

    The song that i think is prettier of India Martinez is "aguasanta",because the lyrics are beatiful and she sings very well. I also like the song "me equivocaré" by Antonio José.

    Pop,rap,flamenco are types of music that i like because they make me happy when i'm sad and have fun learning the songs.

  5. Music is, for me, a mental break, apart from being able to take you elsewhere with just a song or a melody. Many letters have a very deep meaning and it can change your mood easily.

    I usually listen to all kinds of music, although I like pop, flamenco and rap the most. My favorite singers are Vanesa Martín, Amy Winehouse, Miguel Poveda and Arce, and if I had to stay with a band it would be without a doubt "El Canto del Loco".
    The songs that I usually listen to and that I consider favorites are "Back to black" by Amy, "Girl On Fire" by Alicia Keys, "Unbearable" by El Canto del Loco. These songs make me disconnect from everything.

    As you can see I like all kinds of music except Heavy Metal and Rock and Roll. I usually listen to songs that have a meaningful and beautiful lyrics.

  6. Music is the best way to disconnect from everything when you are going through hard times because you enter a world where are only you and your music and it can help you. Also, music is good because it encourages you and gives you the motivation for doing things more entertaining and less boring.

    I listen to many types of music like electronic music, hip-hop and rap. I like artists like Eminem (the best rapper for me), 2Pac, Wiz Khalifa, Sia and others. I don´t like all the songs of an artist but it doesn´t mean that i don´t like the music of the artist.

    Personally I have been listening to this type of music for many years and nowadays I still liking it because not only for the beat and the music but also for the lyrics. In many situations in the past Eminem´s songs have helped me.

    I think everybody should listen to music although you don´t like it because music is a way to express your emotions and it helps you to feel better with yourself.

  8. Nowadays can be very strange the person who doesn´t listen music to disconnect or just to have a good time.When you go to festivals you can see that there are many music genres but you usually like some of them more than others.

    Personally,I don´t have a favourite genre but if I have to choose one,it will be pop or flamenco.Normally I select pop more for my routine and flamenco for that time that I want to clean my mind or for these days that I feel sad because it makes me feel better.

    What I can really say is that I hate opera.From my point of view is very boring.However,I look up to opera singers because I see myself unable to make treble as well as they do.

    I believe that the type of music you listen changes depend on your age so may be in few years I will like opera but now I prefer something more energetic as I said:pop or flamenco.

  9. The music is relaxing for me . When I listening music , I am concentrating for do my homework or study. My mum and dad listen to music every day ,they show mw that the songs are so wonderful.


    Probably my favorite type music is RAP. RAP is a type music with a strong rhythm in which the words are spoken.
    This musical was born in te 70s in South Bronx , New York.


    This style doesn´t considered correct , because has been implicated with burblary , crime and delinquency , but this doesn´t thue.
    Futhermore , I like reggateon but the my favorite music is RAP , obviusly.


    In my opinion , I think that has a lot of type music , more that i thought , as Blues ,Country,Flamenco,Rock and Roll or Indie Jazz Merengue and many more.
    Finally I believe that the kind music yos listen changes depend of your emotion.

  10. I need the music in my life, because I use the music to relax for example in period of exams in the college. I listen to music every day so the music to me is very important.

    I think my favourite genre of music is flamenco, I love it. I think flamenco is the best genre because this sings transmit something very beautiful, but also I listen to another type of music for example reggaeton when I go to parties.

    My favourite singer and bands in the genre of flamenco are for example "Paco Candela" or "Manuel Carrasco" but specially the singer that I love is "Menta y Romero" is a band from the village of Huevar, I like them because they make me feel beautiful feelings with their songs.

    In conclusion, I recommend you to listen to some sings of flamenco because, I think the music is unique in the world and these genre is very attractive. If you listen it you don't regret.

  12. Nowadays music is too important for people becouse it is very useful for liven up yourself. Music is a type of stimulation that is recommended to everyone, for example people who listen animated music usually feel happy.



    From my point of view the best music genre is reggaeton and pop. I would rather these becouse that type of songs incites to dance and sing. Nevertheless reggaeton lyrics are very hards and say sexist things. Another reason why I listen that type of music is becouse I love parties and that genres are very common at parties.


    There are a lot of good singers so I haven't got a favourite singer becouse I use to listen songs of a lot of artists. When I was a child I had a favourite singer who was "Huecco". The song that I have liked the most from that artist is "Mirando al cielo".


    Finally I would recommend you to listen pop and reggaeton song that it would help you to be happy during some bad moments of your life. However I think people should listen the type of music whose they prefer becouse everyone have different likes.

  13. Music can raise someone's mood, get them excited, or make them calm and relaxed. Music allows us to feel nearly of all emotions that we experience in our lives. Well, my favorite genre of music is pop and instrumental music.


    Pop is a type of music wich encourage me to be active and feel better. One of my favourite band is called "Morat".They are a group of four men.My favorite song of this group is "Mi suerte". When I listen this music I feel happier. Another band that I feel in love with is "Los fito fitipaldis".


    In case of instrumental music, I don´t really have any preferences of band or single, I just search "instrumental music" and that´s what I listen. I usually listen this type of music when I am studying, because I need to be relaxed and concentrated.


    Finally, music gives people a way to express who they are inside through many different forms.Music can also change our mood and feelings. When you feel music, I think that is one of the best thing in life.People should listen music.

  14. Nowadays, most people listen to music every day. For example I listen to music every day to disconnect from studies.


    Personally I don't have a favorite music style but if I have to choose one it would be “hip hop”. This is the type of music that I listen to the most because helps me relax in those stressful days.


    However, there are some types of music that I don't like to listen like opera or classical music because I think that are boring.


    In conclusion, although I listen to many different styles of music, my favorite is “hip hop” because this type of music helps me to disconnect on those bad days.

  15. The music has always been present in my family since almost every day when I do housework, when I am sad and I want to cheer up, I have listened to music for it and that`s why the music has become a very special part of my life and I love it.


    I dont have many favourite types of music but the one I am sure I will never listen to is reggaeton because the lyrics is horrible in my opinion , I hate the lyrics but a lot of my friends love it and I dont know why but every person has different preferences. My favourite types of music is pop and the electronic music , I have always loved these types of music.

    When someone asks me what my favourite singer is, I always think of Sia .I love her songs and her voice, one of my favourite songs is "chandelier" because I love the lyrics and Im in love with the videoclip, its perfect.

    In my opinion all of people should listen to music because music relaxes you, encourages you when you have a letdown...and if you have never heard music, you should try it, believe me.

  16. Since I have use of reason, I love English. When I was a child the reason that makes me concentrate in learning English was music. I loved heard Hannah Montana’ s songs , who nowadays is known as Miley Cyrus. My purpose when I was seven years old was to understand all the lyrics of her songs.

    I haven’t got a specific style of music. The ones that I heard frequently is pop and rook music but I love all kinds of music except rap. It doesn’t means that I hate that, of course not. Furthermore I think is one of the best types to express your own feelings and try to keep us on the story.

    For me nowadays music is so good but not as much as music 20 years ago. Currently song composers prefer the rhythm instead of trying to make us dream or feel we are living in a movie or a performance. Also this type of music makes me feel out of the world.

    From my point of view, music is one of the best sort of art and we need it. Because for me, I don’t know if I couldn’t hear music. Really all kinds of sounds are music and we constantly use it, imagine only for one second what life would be like without sounds.

  17. Musci is an important element for our lives because when you are sad or it helps you to relax. With music, you can get away from things.

    There are many musical genres but people usually have one wich they like more. I specially like reggaeton. It’s a type of modern music that much people listen. I like this music because it makes me forget everything and in some situations it motivates me.

    The flamenco is another genre that I often listen, specially Manuel Carrasco’s songs. I usually listen these songs when I have a bad day or when I don’t feel happy because it makes me chill out and not think about my problems.

    As I say before, music can be very important because it helps people to deal with different situations, to focus or their jobs or just to get excited. So I can say that reggaeton and flamenco are important for me.

  18. Music has been vey important during it existances. It has been the way to disconnect for many people and also, it is the common way of communicating.

    Personally, I am keen on listening to pop music, in special Ed sheran. I reckon that this type of music is very entertaining, and you have a wide range of songs to choose from. Moreover, I can't help listening to music, because it makes me feel better.

    Apart from pop music, for me is very enjoyable listening to reggaeton.Is true that It isn't the best music to listen,but this type of music motivate me so much. Although, the downside of these songs is that most of them have macho lyrics.


    It is said that music is the universal language,and I totally agree with that, because through it you can express your fellings and share them with other people.That's why I love music.
