BBC Radio 1

   Hello followers, today I will write about my favorite radio station, BBC Radio 1. Is a such complete station, it evolves almost all types of music and have all type of awesome guests, like: Mila Kunis, Flux Pavilion, Rick Ross, Mick Jagger, Nicky Minaj and much more. Also, they do streaming of live concerts: UKF concerts, Tomorowland.
 
  It's an British station and as pioneers of Dubstep and Drum and Bass, they promote it. Many artists gained a boost in their carriers due to this awesome station.
 
  Sometimes I get to know some news faster and different news by listening to their news feed. They make some games and riddles, it's enjoyable. I improved my English listening this radio and I still do. Recommend everyone to listen to this wonderful radio.

Music in the Global Village


We live in a world that everyday tends to be more connected than it was the day before. The notion of ‘Global Village’ is today clearly understood and followed by every single person on the planet. And as a matter of fact, music is nowadays one of the fastest means of communication.

The way how, nowadays, new bands and artists are still influenced by many artists of the 50’s/60’s clearly shows us the power of music through generations.

Iconic songs as ‘We are the Champions’ by Queen, ‘Thriller’ by Michael Jackson, ‘Mercedes-Benz’ by Janis Joplin and many others are known by all of us in every corner of the globe despite the many years that have passed since their release.

 All these arguments clearly illustrate the way how music has been achieving its place as one of the unifying factors of the world’s population and that for many years that pass, not a single song is forgotten.

Les Misérables


“Les Misérables”



“Les Misérables”, colloquially know as “Les Mis” or “Lez Mis”, is musical movie then it was totally represented in songs sung by actors, everybody spoke singing. It’s one of all other methods to captive attention of listeners. I saw this movie and make me think it strange. I didn’t like it, due to never having seen it before. Although it already exists in 1980.

The musical was originally conceived and produced in France, before its English-language adaptation, which opened at the Barbican Centre in London, England, on 8 October 1985, where the production overcame bad reviews through word of mouth, launching what has turned out to be a global phenomenon.

Nevertheless I consider it a good movie, even though I think it boring. Do you know why? Because we are living in 21th century and it’s new. It will be upgrade for music.

After one movie represented in songs sung by actors, all people of the world will do more movies with musical representation. Then it will be each better than other.


Not only it representation is good, but also it story. It talk about a person who was a thief, but he understood the way is incorrect. For reward he started to help a child (image) of a woman witch died because he didn't help her.

For concluding, in my humble opinion, you must see this movie, it brings many emotions. And try to get a different sensation.

Oppa Harlem Shake Style

   Music is a clear example of Globalization. Information never traveled as fast as it does nowadays, small videos can go viral in days, it´s an enormous impact in our world. But it doesn´t last as long as the old hits did, for example: "Oppa Gangnam Style", the now biggest hit of all time, almost everyone in the world have seen it, is currently, being replaced by "The Harlem Shake", a 30 second video that everyone can make and i'm sure that this viral fashion won´t take long to be replaced
  With this I conclude that the world is "moving faster", by having more and bigger hits for a small amount of time.
