media type="file" key="13 Just a Friend.m4a" [|Lyrics] This song relates to African American history because during part of the song call and response is used. It also has repetition. This song has similarities with hip-hop in which it rhymes. Like "work songs" this song has a special meaning behind it. If you listen to the words you can see the message that the artists are trying to deliver. This song in particular doesn't use any instruments, it's all voice.


 * Reflection**: This song is one of my all time favorites. It's like a song i can listen to over and over again and never get tired of. I like the harmony which takes throughout the whole song. It excites me every time i listen to it. This song is one i listen when im just laying down or thinking. I definitely think that almost everybody if not already will go through what the artists are talking about in this song.

media type="file" key="03 Every Heart ~Minna No Kimochi~.mp3" [|Lyrics] Trace of African American history is shown in this song with the use of repetition. It consists of 4 beats per measure and contains a consistent beat. The song has a soft kind of calming feel relating it to smooth jazz.
 * SONG #2: Every Heart**
 * Every Heart~ (Minna no Kimochi)
 * BoA's
 * 2002
 * R&B
 * Reflection**: I fell in love with this song the first time i heard it. It's not that different from what i normally listen to other than the language. The song I feel is extremely beautiful and the meaning of this song, WOW!! I can't even explain how much it adds to my liking of it.

media type="file" key="I Care For You.mp3" [|Lyrics] This song i feel really demonstrates the characteristics branched from African music. Both have repetition and call and response. This song relates to hip-hop in where they both tell stories to a beat. The song has a 4/4 measurement. It also has a slow melancholy feel which gives off the blues vibe.
 * SONG #3: I Care 4 U**
 * I Care 4 U
 * Aaliyah
 * 2002
 * R&B


 * Reflection:** This is my favorite song. I always listen to this song whenever i listen to my ipod. Aaliyah is also my favorite singer. This is why i choose this song for my page, also because this song has very pretty words. If i had to rewrite this song i don't think that i would change anything about it. I feel like no matter how many years pass this song would still fit into that time period, its a song that can never go out of date.
