Musicians Who Defined Their Genre
There are a million different ways to judge a musician's or band's talent. Regular listeners might judge it by seeing if the singer can hit high notes, or if guitarists are able to do high-speed riffs. For music company execs, listening for skill deals more with a band's image, brand, and marketability in many cases. Others may see talent in a concrete, numbers way.

Greatest Classic Movie Musicals
Ever since people first put sound in movies, the classic genre of the musical has thrived. It makes sense, of course. Song has always been involved in visual story telling. The Greek Chorus would sing prayers during stage productions. Opera adapted the works of Shakespeare.

10 Best Sad Love Songs
The list below contains the Top 10 Best Sad Love Songs. This list is based on research and on my own personal opinions. This song was written by Adele and Dan Wilson. It is the second single and final song on her “21” album. This song is Adele’s first number one single in the UK and it stayed at number one for five weeks. This song also was Adele’s second song to hit number one in the USA. This song is about the end of a relationship with her ex-boyfriend. The words are haunting. “I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited. But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it. I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over.”

This song is haunting. “I have been looking so long at these pictures of you. I almost believed they were real. I have been looking so long at these pictures of you. The pictures are all I can feel.”

Don't Forget the Flamin' Groovies
The Flamin Groovies released their third album, Teenage Head, back in 1971 to much critical praise. However, because the group was known only tentatively in the Midwest and San Fransisco (where they originated about 1968), the record won little popularity and no airplay.

Best Music Videos of the 80s
Because creating music videos is standard practice today, it can be easy to forget that there was a time when artists didn’t produce videos to accompany their biggest hits. The first modern music videos were created in the 1980s, and the birth of MTV in 1984 gave music lovers the first venue for fans to see these videos regularly. Music-lovers might be divided on how they feel about the music of the 80s, but there is no doubt that it changed the music industry and the way we discover music forever. Check out this list of the best music videos of the 1980s for your introduction into some of the coolest and earliest music videos.
