I love rock n roll so put another dime in the jute box baby!!
This song really describes my personality. The song “I love rock n roll was remade in year 2001 by the artist of Brittany Spears.
The definition of rock and roll is a style of popular music that derives in with half blues and half folk music and is marked by a heavily accented beat and a simple repeated phase structure.
I would like to inform you about the importance of rock n roll in American history. I am doing this in order to help you learn more about the music of rock, this might just inspirer you to listen to more rock n roll. During this time I am going to tell you about three things, 1 Elvis Presley, and the impact that he left on music. 2 he gave a reason for teens to rebel against, and the 3, the effects of rock n roll.
Elvis Presley was one of the few firsts to create the new style of music called rock and roll. His style of rock and roll was merged of white country with black blues. This new style arose an angry mob; they banned concerts in town because they thought Elvis was too sexy, on television they were not aloud to show lower than the waist. Elvis was known as “Elvis the Pelvis”.
The new form of music gave the teens something to rebel against because their parents didn’t like the loudness of the new music. That kind of fits in with today’s life by some parents still not liking the loudness of the rock and roll and some of the language used in some songs. Many fist fights broke out in opinions if rock music should be played on radios. Some teens rebelled against going to school and some skipped school and went to concerts in other towns. Other teens started to dress like Elvis, with low hip hugger jeans and skintight tops. A lot of parents would not let their teen ages leave the house dressed like that because it was inappropriate. All of this was influenced by the first of rock n roll!
The first of rock and roll groups started with Little Richard and his band. The music started to change the style forever! Such as dancing now there was hip and other new dances. Now a days there is still rock n roll kind of dance such as head banging and mosh pits (those are usually in concerts) I wouldn’t conceder dancing those dances because they are very dangerous but yet fun. It also changed the way people dressed, with low pants and fancy shirts
Those are just a couple reasons why rock n roll is great! So when you are in the car or at home listening to the radio and here the song “I love rock n roll…” remember that not only was it a great song, but also it was a great time in American history!!
