@alana_needle I do agree, people will listen to what they want to without worrying about where they are from. There is global accessibility and listeners can pick their favourite song from anywhere in the world they like. #MUNMUS2011

@klwellwood I think this would help indeed. CBC Radio 2 does this thing where they play new emerging Canadian artists of different genres! #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

CBC Radio 2 has a special where they showcase new Canadian artists of different genres for their listeners. I really like this because it encourages more local songs and artists to emerge #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

American has definitely impacted the music industry with majority of popular artists reigning from that country. I do believe that after 40 years it is important to promote and encourage more Canadian artists. #MUNMUS2011 (1/2)

@meganpi26186194 Very true, the energy is a big thing when seeing live performances. This "interchangeability" you mention is undeniable and is definitely one of the perks of attending live covered performances. #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

@WhyNotD2l Agreed, when going out the accessibility of a song does help. I think it depends on the type of night the individual wants to have. #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

Many people enjoy going out and dancing to songs from records, but many others also enjoy watching live performances. It depends on the type of night one is having #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

I do not fully agree with Walt's assessment of today's audience. There is enjoyment in seeing bands cover various genres of music that each fall into different categories. I believe that the preference is dependent on the individual (1/2)#munmus2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

@klwellwood Very true, all music is important. It is always important to give credit to the original artist even if it is changed to fit mainstream music #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

@Couves_Mark Agreed, I believe that the music industry did adapt the lyrics to suit a larger audience and profit from that. #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

Writers probably considered the music “schlock” because they were not used to the new music that was coming out of this time. Music changed from what was traditionally known. Artists changed their lyrics and filtered it for a larger audience. #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

@KelseyVinnicom2 agreed, he seemed to really "feel" his music. As much as he was a performer he sang because he loved it. His vocal styles resonated with so many, and still does. #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

@jennybent3 true, he was very talented! his vocal styles were unique from other at that time, I believe this is why so many were able to connect to them even now! #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

Charles influenced various styles of music-from r&b to jazz to blues.He enjoyed singing and wasn't defined by one genre. He wasn't a jazz singer or a blue's singer.He was a singer, and anything he liked he would sing. This could have also been a factor for his success #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

Charles used a breaking voice to convey his own personal style and emphasis in his music. He was able to express his passion, which made him so successful. He was able to make music that was different from standard music of the time. #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

@morepetermoore You’re right, especially since artists release singles before they release the album. The entire album is not listened to as much as some certain songs. I miss the experience of waiting for an album & listening to all the songs before picking your favourites #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

@meganpi26186194 Very true! And because it falls in a certain category or “newly released” its easily the first thing people listen to/see when they go on the app. They don’t need to promote and push their work as much as they once did #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

It has changed the way we access music because it's in the palm of our hands. With the development of devices and technology apps like Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon music have developed. Millions of songs are now easily accessible. #MUNMUS2011

[brittneygg @brittneygg3]

The MP3 player has influenced identity because you're able to put music you like onto the device. You have the ability to choose the different genres of songs that go on it. You don't have to listen to mainstream songs, you can have anything from classical to modern. #MUNMUS2011
