Am I really listening to the lyrics?
So for our study in class we are seeing how music today impacts romantic relationships. We have been listening to a lot of songs and coding them and it has made me be a lot more aware of what the words actually say and more importantly what messages they are sending. A lot of songs that I have liked because of the fun/happy beat are actually pretty horrible. I'm sure you can think of a few off your head, but it has just made me be a lot more aware of what I am actually listening to. I think especially since I know my lil baby girl can hear now in my belly, I am more cautious of it. Obviously, I don't know how much she actually comprehends right now in that sense, but I still think the principle of monitoring music is important for me to be aware of. What has been even more shocking is the music videos! Yikes...one of them was pretty much a rape scene but it is a really popular song that is on the radio all the time. Anywho...just some food for though...listen more intently to the lyrics and think about the pro or anti-family messages they are sending!!
