It was just a style of music that they could relate to and express some of their ideas through. Bluegrass spread when Appalachians fled to the cities after the war to find work. These people mainta .....

He wants to be left alone, like it says in the third stanza, "Hiding in my room, Safe within my tomb." He wanted to be shielded from society.

.... music” would take some time to get used to. My Music Appreciation class gave me knowledge I needed to understand music that I was not already familiar with.

.... up to them and their cultural impact can still be felt today. The Sex Pistols are the most notorious band of all time. They lightning bolted onto the scene and then were gone equally as fast. However, they were to have an impact on popular music that hadn't been felt since the Beatles. Although they weren't the first punk group, they definitely defined the genre in the popular sense. From their music come new wave, alternative, and grunge. Lyrically, the groups definitely differed. The Beatles compositions were quite eclectic, whereas the Sex Pistols tend to be all d .....

.... they were doing. They worked so hard, and they mess it all up in one day. The articles gives some hints here and there, about this "circus" behavior had maybe a little to do with the bands past experiences.
