1. I prefer internacional music.I like all kind of music,but im not really into spanish singer or gruops, in my opinion there's no variety they all sound the same to me.
I really like R&B and you dont see much of that on this country :P
I like international and national music,I don´t prefer one more other. I like to listen music when I go driving my car or when I travel by plane.
Some of my national favourite groups are Pereza, Mala Rodriguez, Celtas Cortos, Mecano...and some international music groups like Rihana, Nelly Furtado, Juanes, Tracy Chapman etc...
I prefer one or other according to my humour.
I prefer international music because I can learn different culture or different kind of life just listening to it. It is not only if I like it or not,it is more about what it represent for them. I love Hip Hop and I think Amy Winehouse is a good example of how people live in England.
I like all the music , but i prefer international music , for example , rihanna make good music and other groups for example fifty cent , ...I listen music in my car . Whe I go to drive my car , I put the music after of thar I start to drive .
I prefer the international music but also I like the Spanish music. The truth is that I like all kinds of music and I like to listen it according to my state of mind.
The photo remind me a movie that I saw when i was a small child, Salvar a Willy, the truth is that I like it this photo so much.
I love both kinds of music. However I dislike commercial music that we can ear ten times per day in supermarket, in guagua, on the radio in my car...
The advantages of international music is that you can learn foreign languages as the english (the beetles, U2...) and the Spanish (Manu chao, muchachitos...).
I went to the lojo park the last week, an artificial park of animals and shows of dolphins and orca. This movie make me think at the jail conditions of this animals at in opposition of their natural conditions.
I like all kinds of music, but I prefer the international music, because I think there are better singers and better groups and their concerts are incredible!
With the heat that is doing the image reminds me of my summers at the beach. Also reminds me of the Loro Parque and the shows of the orcas
I like a band when, first of all, it reaches my heart. Secondly if it's creative, and finally if it's musically good. I don't care the nationality.
Actually, looking at the national musical picture, we can find very good bands of very different styles in very different countries; Sevilla, Madrid, Cádiz, Barcelona, Granada... You can find artists like “Amparanoia” (Flamenco, rumba and electronic sounds), Marina Gallardo (the most creative pop- rock), “Màrtires del Compàs” (Rumba- flamenco), Pepe Habichuela (flamenco 100%), “08001” (electronic sounds from Arabian created in Barcelona) Carles Benavent (the second best bass player on the earth) Serrat (catalan singer)…
… and one or two lists endless more.
Walking on the internacional zone I would write a list more endless than the previous. There’s a good british band called “EDITORS”, “WILCO” from Chicago, “LAMBCHOP”, DAMIEN JURADO or VICTOR WOOTEN (the first best bass on the earth!) from Usa, “ST.GERMAIN” from France, “La Vela Puerca” from Uruguay, CHICO BUARQUE from Portugal, BEN HARPER from California, JACK JOHNSON from Hawaii, TOM WAITS from New Orleans, “DAMIEN RICE” from Irlanda , RADIOHEAD from England , “QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE” from Nord America, VON SÜDENFED or DAS HAUS from Germany, BERSUIT BERGARABAT from Argentina, CLEM SNIDE from New York… And classics like DJANGO REINHARD, THE BEATLES, JEFF BUCKLEY, PINK FLOYD, GEORGES MOUSTAKI, JOHN LEE HOOKER, OTTIS REDDING, BOB MARLEY ….and anybody like JANIS JOPLIN and his rock!
Although for my music has no frontiers, we must recognize that the beginning of many musical styles was not in Spain, not even in Europe. But in Europa there are a very good bands too.
LIVE MUSIC!
Ok. This picture conveys something very nice to me: cold. Freedom.
Maria, I`m fascinate because you have a big culture about music, and I like it.
But I want listening a sing of "PEPE HABICHUELA" because this name is very coloquial and gracious and when I read it, I laugh so much.
So, I like international and national music, groups like M-Clan, Mana, La Quinta Estacion, Malu, Monica Naranjo, Ryhanna, Juanes...
Moreover, I need have a music culture because in my job is very important. Spinning class needs all the time music and is necessary select music that motivate the people. Consecuently, I am all the time download sings and remixes from Internet.
The picture reminds me a "rotonda" in the south of Gran Canaria, I don´t remember exactness but I think that could be in Arguinegin or around.
Maria. You sound so convincing and cultured in your writing about music! There is always something to know and to share. SO, I'll start my research on music! Thanks everyone
In my opinon both types of music have their pro's and contra's.
National or regional music is interesting, because you can get an impression of the culture. How people think, in what they are interested,how they express their feelings and themselves, what topics they choose etc..
Another fact is that international music usually comes from national music. Singers who had a lot of success in their own countries became so popular and famous, so that their music spread out in all over the world. I think that one of the advantages of national music is originality. An extraordinary voice, a freaky look, a fantastic show etc..
On the other side international music have singers from all over the world. The variety of music is much bigger, different style's and without any doubt better music productions. Sounds as well as Video- clips are produced more professional. For sure this depends on the money which they invest.
But in the past we also could see that often a lot of money doesn't help to creat good music song. Boring songs, with almost the same phrases, refrains and melodies have been published. The missing of creative ideas and the pressure of creating every day a number one hit caused the reuptake of old hits from the past.
Regarding to all that I have to say
that in my opinon it depends on each song. Their are extraordinary national musicians as well as international stars who make really good music nowadays. So that we should enjoy every good song we are listing to. Doesn't matter where it comes from.
The wale picture reminds me that I have to go surfing soon! If I am lucky maybe I will see one day such an incredible big "fucking" fish. And if not I have to go on a whale tour to disturb them in their peace and harmony with my camara! No I am just joking hopefully he still lives and enjoys his totally different lifestyle. The way he lives is so different to our way of living, I can't believe it this planet is so beautiful and differential. Enjoy your weekend and stayfresh!
In my opinion this picture is really nice,sea animals can be so impressive.
A few days ago I saw a program that was about fantastic holidays: on tropical islands, posh hotels...and one of the things that was getting really popular was swimming with whales.That program was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw the picture.
I'm not sure if I could be brave enough to go swimming with whales but I would love to see them from a boat :P
1.I like the national and international music.Depends of the moment I listen national or international music.For exemple I can stay listening spanish hip hop and later listen american hip hop.
2.The photo remember me the documentaries of Nature that I saw when i was a children.You can see this animal in Tenerife in Loro Park.
1. I prefer spanish music because it`s the sort of music that I usually listen in my house, moreover, my favourites groups and singers are spanish musicians.I love Macaco, Marea, Ojos de Brujo, Camarón, Amparanoia, Extremo duro, Fito, Platero y Tú, Herdeiros da Crus, Canteca de Macao...
I think that normally,the spanish music are much less commercial than internacional music (except musicians like bisbal and all the singers of O.T, or groups like Pereza...) and the music less commercial it´s more interesting for me.
On another hand, I listen international music too. I love reggaeton and internacional singers like Bob Marley, and groups like Metallica and Nirvana.
2.This picture it´s very beatiful, it´s amazing¡¡¡ I want to go to Loro Parque to see the killer whale.
1. I prefer International music, because it appeals more people and with it learns different languages. Too because it is more entertained than National music and for me the rhythm and the dance is more lively.
My favourite music is the merengue and the reggeton, and my favourite singers are Elvis Crespo and Don Omar. I listen music every day, when I go to University, and the weekends when I go to beach or of party.
Also in my opinion, in Gran Canaria, National music doesn't listen much, it is difficult to meet/find in discotheques.
2. The picture describes the fin of a whole, in a wonderful landscape.
It remembers me much to a rotunda in the south, in Arguineguin, where also there is a the same picture. Aslo it remembers me to documentaries that I saw when I was little. Too it remembers me to famous movie that it called Liberated Willy.
I prefer national music, although i like international music too but my favourite singer is Alejandro Sanz who sing in spanish. I listen, normally, el canto del loco, fito y fitipaldis, craig david, rihana, etc.
These are national and international singers.
The movie remind me a slow music...
1 . I like all type of music,although " the type of music depends on the place and the moment"(International or National).I am used to listening music in the car , in the house, in the gym ,etc. I usually listen groups of music like Mana , Estopa , Bob Marley ,American hip hop , Black Music ,etc.
2 . When I see picture of whale in sea, I feel so free as she , because I feel well when I am in the sea . The nature I enchant myself.
Under my point of view both tipes of music are important for the hole world but I prefer to buy national music to help national singer because with internet the national singers are lossing money. On the oder side to listen I prefer international music because ussually is better than national music however are too much national singers and groups that they are play so good music such as Javi Muñoz and Chikilicuatre (ajajja).
Is interresting to know all kinds of music and culture music. The indian music is relaxing and very good to go to sleep.
The music is so important in ower lifes is the best things to trasmite fellings.
2.-The photograh remenber me when I was young and I watched on TV "Liberad a Willy".
I love the wales we have to save the wales.
This picture it´s very nice, I like this imagine ´cause transmit to me peace, tranquility, and it causes a freedom sensation to me. I like to much the sea and the whales and dolphins,the dolphin it´s my favourite animal, and for these reasons I specially like it to me
1- I prefer internacional music because my favotite's bands are American or Brithis, moreover I think that in Spain the rock and heavy music (My favorite kind of music) is backward, although also there a good bands here, for eample: Baron rojo,Celtas cortos, Sphinx or Hamlet.
2- In this picture We can see the beatifull blue sea where There a whale. In the botton we see a big mountains also.
1. I prefer the national music because I like to understand what I hear and I sing. I love Hanna, Eros Ramazzoti, Melocos, Queco, El canto del loco, etc. But also I like some international artists:
Nelly Furtado, Rihanna, James Blunt...
2. On picture there,s a whale tail submerge in the sea. Whales are impressive animals, her tail has heart-shaped. The picture is very wonderful. The predominant colour is blue with different shades.
1.I like all kind of music, i love english pop with groups like oasis, the verve,coldplay...all so, i like so much spanish pop like pereza, canto del loko, celtas cortos, extremo duro ect...but i really love house music both internacional with Dani Tenaglia, Eric morillo... like spanish dj´s Wally lopez, Chus and Ceballos ect...
2. this picture remember me the beautifull of the sea, with his maravillous animals and all so remember me the sea relax.
1- I prefer the national music more because I like although I hear a little of everything.
I like for example: elcanto del loco, el sueño de morfeo, U2...
2- the picture is very relaxing because sea transmits tranquility. In adittion I think that whales are some very beautiful animals and that at least once in a lifetime you should go to see them.
I like the music but speacially the nacional music for example rap or hip hop. In my life there are days that i like to listen intenational music, for example akon … all blank music
When i see the Picture i remeber the ocena and a lot of film where appear the ocean or the pirates film
I like all the types of music, and i don't prefer internacional or national music, but i listen usually international music because has more variety, especially in R&B and electronic music ( minimal, house, electro-house, beats ... ).
And the picture remind me that up to the whales, a big and strong animal of the ocean they have to go out sometimes to the surface to breathe and to rest, as the persons. But in our society, many people "doesn´t go out to the surface to breathe and to rest, and they die drowned".
C U tomorrow and good luck with the redaction.
The choice between one music or others will depend on how i feel in this moment.
I can listen to nacional music (Alejandro Sanz, Pereza, ECDL,...) as well as I can listen to the internacional one (James Blunt, Akon, 50 cent,...)
As u can see i like so different kind of music... so u can see me one day allways smiling, as u can see me another day angry. I can say I like something today, and tomorrow i'll maybe telling you that i don't like it at all... I am such an indecisive person hehe.
The image:
I agree with Manu's comment of the photo. I really enjoy its reading.
The picture is from a sea that i will never be in. With such big animals around there.. I don't wanna stay having a bath so close... Anyways... maybe they would become my friends.. as in Disney's films... mmm.... I'm gonna think about that.. =)!
Hello...!!!
1.I prefer national music because i understand all the songs and i think that spain Have a lot of good singers.But i like international music too because i like listening different kinds of music and a lot of songs are very beatiful...
in conclusion i like all the music,national or international,and all the kinds of music!!
Bye...!!!!
2.The picturer remind me the film "salvar a Willy"it is very odl film but is beautiful.Now i remind the new show in the loro parque in tenerife.
1. i prefer international music of course, i think that is other style musical, this music is more worked, more creative....
Spanish music only is for the summer only for dancing and havent great lyrics...
there is exceptions my best songer is an older songer, is "camaron" is "gitano" anda is different songer compared with other spanisjh songers.
i cant compare alicia keys with daviid civera for example, is impossible!! alicia keys has talent, is more pretty and is better!!!
the picture "remind me" (i put comillas because yesterday in class soraya remind us this words) a film of "liberad a willy" it isnt willy but appears parts of that film.
In G.C. there are species thata appears , they are "cachalotes" i can see this apecie and is very exciting!!!
I prefer international music than national music. I think that there is one worse music that the french one : the spanish music. French ministery of culture made a law telling that on the brodacsting french radio at least 30% of the songs must be national. That's why when you switch on the radio in france you must listen many stupid love songs made by artificial artist coming from I don't know witch stupd TV show. In spain I don't know if this law exist but these artificial singers exist even more than in france.
This picture makes me think about a story a lived last year. I was working for a boat seller and with two other guys we had to deliver a sailing boat from south east of france to Malta Island. One morning at the sunrise we were away from the Corse coastline and I was alone skipping the boat. I was nearly sleeping when I saw this huge whale tail in front of the boat. I try to change the boat direction when it disapeared. One minute after the whale came back close to the boat. I was looking for it and it was looking for me. I saw its big eye and it diapeared again and never came back. It was for me a great moment.
What a strong message Manu. I absolutely agree. Cheers!
Thanck you very much Soraya.

1. I really love Rn´B music because I think it is the best. Spanish Rn´B music does not exist -it is American. I do not like national music because it is rubbish!
2. The photo is of a whale in the sea. It reminds me of my friend because she is pretty but fat.
1- I prefer national music , because my favourite music is latin music and the big part of this kind of music is in spanish. Some examples about it iss... for example Mark Anthony, Luis Fonsi, Rosario..
2- Is about a big fish swimming in the sea... i want to be here all the summer too.. but not to being a fish, i just want to be a men, what i think that I´m at the moment.. haha!
-hi all readers, hi teacher.
my favourite music always has been american hip hop for this reason i prefer international music.I listen american hip hop since i was 10 years old, my idol always was,is and will be TUPAC amaru shakur, to me is like my teacher in the life.
I don´t despise the national music but to me the international music,in special american hip hop, can give me new experience, news ways of life.
I listen too other style of music.About electro house music or electro techno i normaly listen spanish dj´s but also international dj´s.
describe the picture:
the picture provoke in me respect,respect to the unknow.
I like the national and international music, but I listen more to the international music 'cause I like the rock in English language, in many songs I don't understand the letter, I know it! Jejeje. But I like this music and pace.
For example, I like pantera, Rage Against The Machine, Papa Roach, Pennywise, Primus, Limp Bizkit, Jet, Nirvana, Metallica, etc.
I like "NO Children" too, are Mallorca's friends and they have a group of rock and his songs are in English!
2. The photo is amazing, the whales transmit greatness and serenity. They are the biggest animals of the world and nonetheless they are in extinction for the illegal hunt. I have never seen any, I would like to be able to see her some day...
I can choose a group or a singer because is better than other, but I can´t choose internacional or national music because I like a lot of national and international groups. I think that it depends of the moment.
The photo remind me a documentary that I saw the last summer.
I prefer all types of music,national and international music ,because depend of music style,i like spanish pop,and american r&b.
The picture it´s a freedom in a pure style. The wale IS VERY FREE and i like this picture.
1.I really like all kinds of music, bouth pop or rock, and hip-hop or rap, already be national or international music. I agree totally with maria on whom the music doesn't have borders and whom if it is good the music doesn't matter wherefrom it is.
2.I think that is a very very good picture,and it is a very tipical picture of wales.I again agree with maria about that the photo represent freedom
