ReplyDelete3 genres:
ReplyDeleteBreak up in alternative rock
Dreams in Country
Struggle in Rap
Suzanne, a good song for Heartache in Country would be; "Here Comes Goodbye" By: Rascal Flatts.
ReplyDeletehey tori, i think alternative rock and heartbreak is a good idea. A lot of alternative rock has to do with heartbreak and love. For example, the goo goo dolls
ReplyDeletekristina,
ReplyDeletei like your idea of love in alternative rock, there are a lot of songs you could use for that theme genre.
-tori bravetti
I would like to do Love and Loss in country.. any ideas?

ReplyDeleteGood ideas Suzanne! Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood are good singers for heartbreak in country music.
ReplyDeletesuzanne, all yours are good ideassss!
ReplyDeleteTori, a good song for love in country would be "Love Story" By: Taylor Swift.
ReplyDeleteDavid the song White Liar by Miranda Lambert is a good song for that

ReplyDelete~I want to do this one really bad but i fell like everyone else already is...does that matter?
2. money in rap
3. saddness/heartbreak in alternative
I like how everyone is doing some sort of love/heartbreak in country....
ReplyDeleteKris a good song for you would be "Sweet and Wild" by: Dierks Bentley
ReplyDeleteTim, Rascal Flatts are a good band for dreams in country music!
ReplyDeletekristen, there are a lot of love songs for country. Good artists are Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban
ReplyDeleteI was thinking optimism as a theme. I was not too sure of what genre would work well with the theme though. Perhaps optimism in pop, but I would prefer another genre.
ReplyDeleteI am not knowledgeable in genres other than the most well known genres. Any ideas?
hey kristen, love in country is a good idea, a lot of taylor swift songs are about love
ReplyDeletehey sean, cool ideaaaaa
ReplyDeletedavid, a good song for love and country is need you now by lady antebellum

Love in Pop Punk
1. freedom in classic rock
ReplyDelete2. heartbreak in metal

josh, i think you have swell ideas, i love metal
ReplyDeleteAnyone who is doing love or heartbreak in country "Quitter" by: Carrie Underwood I think could be good for both of them
ReplyDeletehey josh, death in metal is intenseeeeee, lol dont do it
ReplyDeletehey josh im kinda scared of your death and metal idea. but its interesting so go for it.
ReplyDeletehey tim, do dreams in country, it sounds cool and i like country
ReplyDeletePerspective is a good idea for modern music Tori!
ReplyDeletemeg i feel that money and rap is a good idea but may be too specific and you may not find a lot of songs
ReplyDeleteamanda, heartbreak in alternative rock is a good idea. i was thinking about that one too.
ReplyDeleteKristen! hi, umm yeah i know all their songs have to do with dreams like "My Wish" so It will probably be a good genre to do.
ReplyDeleteAgony/Pain in Alternative Rock
ReplyDeleteSuffering in Hard Rock
Feeling in Country
sean, i like your idea you should look into a local band called Horseplay.
ReplyDeletejamie, heartbreak in metal is a good idea. You should choose that.
ReplyDeleteemptyness in rock
ReplyDeletefailure in rap
Maybe optimism in modern music Nicolette? Or happiness in modern music?
ReplyDeletekristina and tori, i completly agree with you! it is scary! But i love your ideas for theme-genre
ReplyDeleteYes Kristina I agree with you, That is such a good song by Lady Antebellum
ReplyDeletelove in country* not feelings
ReplyDeleteThanks Kristina!
ReplyDeletekristina, i think you should do struggle in rap because that would be gr8, see u in film too
ReplyDeleteSean, your idea is very different and it is a really good idea!
ReplyDeleteNicolette, I think a good idea for a song would be "Over the rainbow" I dont know what genre that would be but it might work
ReplyDeletekristina, i love your idea of love in alternative rock. You could get alot of examples!
ReplyDeleteI think another good idea is grief in musical types of music. There is this song that I am auditioning with at college and it's called "Empty Chairs at Empty tables" it is from Les Mes and a lot of songs in the musical have to do with grief.
ReplyDeleteFor anyone thinking about doing revenge in country music.."Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood is a good song for that!
ReplyDeleteim doing love and heartbreakn in country music, any ideas? or perspective in modern music, ideass?
ReplyDeleteKristina, I think you could get a lot in love in alternative rock, its different..
ReplyDeletekristina tough love in alternative rock is a good idea, but it seems hard to find songs
ReplyDeleteKB your giving good songs as examples!
ReplyDeleteAnother idea I am thinking about is "Love and Romance in Hip Hip"
ReplyDeletedo you guys have any ideas?!
tim, dreams in country is a wicked good idea! Its different from all the others.
ReplyDeleteConfusion (why someone is confused)in Punk rock could be another one
ReplyDeleteI've offically decided that im going to do "trial and tribulations in alternative rock". Any ideas for songs or artists??
ReplyDeleteI'm realizing that I need to listen to more genres of music, I listen to too much country.
ReplyDeleteoptimism in reggae. good bands?
ReplyDeleteTim, "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts is good for dreams in country music.
ReplyDeletesean, i think a lot of people are doing struggle in rap so i think i may not do that because i wanna be different :/
ReplyDeleteI am pretty certain that i am going to do dreams in country lol
ReplyDeleteFor anyone doing heartbreak in country, "Leave the Pieces" by the Wreckers would work
ReplyDeleteAHH Kristen that's such a good idea revenge in country there are a lot of songs out there
ReplyDeletemeghan, i dont think it matters, a ton of people are doing something in country, i think he said to just change the wording
ReplyDeleteim feelin

ReplyDeleteOk, I really want to do Rock or Modern Rock for my music genre. I have narrowed down my themes to
ReplyDelete1. Lost Love
2. Suffering
3. Anti-War and Protest
everyone should do greatness in horseplay
ReplyDeleteA good song for love in country could be "Waitin On a Women" by Brad Paisley
ReplyDeleteI think I might change my theme-genre combo to hope in showtunes.
ReplyDeleteKristen, I'm trying to stay away from modern music. Though optimism in modern music or happiness would probably work. I'll probably discard optimism as my theme.
ReplyDeleteKB, I heard the song "Over the Rainbow" recently. I am not sure of the genre of the song either. But when I heard it I thought that inspiration would be a good theme.
Good idea Kajsa! I like that you are using loss too
ReplyDeleteAnyone doing anything to do with Rock, The Beatles has a lot of different stuff
ReplyDeletejamie, your ideas are all good, any of them would be good choices
ReplyDeleteTim, grief in showtunes would be a really good theme genre combo.
ReplyDeleteIdolatry in Rap
ReplyDeletePower in Rap
Alcoholism in Country
Kristina,i think your right that is too specific, i think like being materialistic in rap would be better.
ReplyDeletedavid, i like your idea its very original and refreshing
ReplyDeleteKristen here are some ideas:
ReplyDelete1) Romance in Modern Country music
2) Love within Modern Country music

Scott, I think that symobolism in rock would be a really good theme genre combo for you to do, and it would probably be pretty easy.
ReplyDeletei want to do turn of the century music. any good theme ideas?
ReplyDeleteGood idea David!
ReplyDeleteTaylor, those are all good ideas and I really like the anti-war and protest but it might be too narrow.
ReplyDeletedavid i like your combo! its different and i bet there's a lot to work with

ReplyDeleteA good song for optimism could be Halo by Beyonce
ReplyDeleteA good love song could be Fallin' For You by Colbie Caillat
ReplyDeleteLost In this moment by Big & Rich for Love in Country
ReplyDeleteLove Remembers by Craig Morgan
ReplyDeleteChris, power in rap sounds good you will be able to find a lot with that one
ReplyDeleteSuzanne, a good song for Heartache in Country would be, "Whiskey and You" by Tim McGraw.
ReplyDeleteSuzanne I think that is a great idea. I strongly recommend Keny Chensy's song "Summer Time" for heartache in country theme. For love in country theme go with Taylor Swift's "Our Song" or "Love Song".For Guilt in Punk Rock theme go with P!nk's "So What" or Queen's "Killer Queen".
ReplyDeleteKristina, I would recommend either Eminem's "Mocking Bird" or Little Wayne's "Make It Rain" for your struggle in rap theme.
David u should try Taylor Swift's "Should've Said No".
thanks Suzanne I think that is what I am going to do
ReplyDeletemaybe happiness in turn of the century music Erica? that would probably have a lot of options
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of power in rap chris
ReplyDeletechris, i think power in rap would be a good idea. No one has this topic so it would be a good choice
ReplyDeleteI think im going to do storytelling in country! I know its a vague topic but i think i'll get a lot of songs! Any ideas? ...minus "love story" lol
ReplyDeleteErica! its a good idea to do turn of the century music! If i think of any good themes i'll let you know!
ReplyDeleteOhhh! thanks tori i didnt even know that!
