  • A Short History of Pop ‘Pop’ Is Short for Popular Music
    Read the text. A short history of pop ‘Pop’ is short for popular music. There are different styles of pop music, but they all appeal to the general public. But when did ‘modern’ pop music begin? There were two significant moments. First of all Leo Fender invented the electric guitar in 1950. Then, in 1954, Sony introduced the transistor radio and after that, music was accessible to people in their homes and cars. In 1954 Elvis Presley released That’s All Right. He fused country music with black rhythm and blues to create rock and roll. At that time this was an innovation, and Elvis, who was young, attractive and exciting, became the first teen idol and made pop music a youth culture. The 1960s was the decade of The Beatles, who dominated pop music from 1961 to 1970 with a new folk-rock sound. The Beatles were the first band to play in a stadium: Shea Stadium in New York in 1965. In June 1969 they had their seventeenth number one hit – two more than Elvis. The 60s also saw the first outdoor music festivals and popular music began to have a social and political message, for example, Bob Dylan. This was also the beginning of Motown and soul music with artists like Ray Charles, The Supremes and Marvin Gaye. Think English Elementary • Unit 9 p.107 © Oxford University Press PHOTOCOPIABLE Next came the 1970s and several new genres of music appeared, like reggae (Bob Marley), glam rock (David Bowie), punk (the Sex Pistols) and heavy metal (Iron Maiden).

  • Nielsen Music Year-End Report Canada 2016
    NIELSEN MUSIC YEAR-END REPORT CANADA 2016 NIELSEN MUSIC YEAR-END REPORT CANADA 2016 Copyright © 2017 The Nielsen Company 1 Welcome to the annual Nielsen Music Year End Report for Canada, providing the definitive 2016 figures and charts for the music industry. And what a year it was! The year had barely begun when we were already saying goodbye to musical heroes gone far too soon. David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, Glenn Frey, Leon Russell, Maurice White, Prince, George Michael ... the list goes on. And yet, despite the sadness of these losses, there is much for the industry to celebrate. Music consumption is at an all-time high. Overall consumption of album sales, song sales and audio on-demand streaming volume is up 5% over 2015, fueled by an incredible 203% increase in on-demand audio streams, enough to offset declines in sales and return a positive year for the business. 2016 also marked the highest vinyl sales total to date. It was an incredible year for Canadian artists, at home and abroad. Eight different Canadian artists had #1 albums in 2016, led by Drake whose album Views was the biggest album of the year in Canada as well as the U.S. The Tragically Hip had two albums reach the top of the chart as well, their latest release and their 2005 best of album, and their emotional farewell concert in August was something we’ll remember for a long time. Justin Bieber, Billy Talent, Céline Dion, Shawn Mendes, Leonard Cohen and The Weeknd also spent time at #1. Break out artist Alessia Cara as well as accomplished superstar Michael Buble also enjoyed successes this year.

A source told People magazine: “They don’t want to repeat the same patterns as before. They’ve clearly had issues in the past, so they’re receiving some guidance from Carl. They love each other [and] truly do want the best for each other.” And Justin is said to be feeling “lucky” that he has rekindled his romance with the ‘Bad Liar’ hitmaker. An insider shared: “Justin wants to be a better man because he doesn’t want to screw things up with Selena. He knows he’s lucky to have this second chance and he’s not taking it for granted. And the truth is, this ‘transformation’ hasn’t been all that difficult for him because he wants it. “It’s true that you can’t change someone unless they want it, and he wants it now. He knows what’s at stake. He would way rather spend a quiet night in with Selena than go get wasted and hook up with random girls. That lifestyle just doesn’t appeal to him anymore. Selena is 100 percent the reason Justin turned his life around. She’s the one that got him involved with church and that opened up a whole new group of friends to him too.” Hefner’s estate to sell off his ownership of Playboy he trustee of the estate has been given permission to sell all his ownership in Playboy, which he founded in he ‘We Belong Together’ hitmaker has been 1953.

  • Best Dancing at Sea Tweet
    www.CruiseCritic.com Best Dancing at Sea Tweet Vicki Baum, the Austrian writer whose novel "Menschen im Hotel" inspired the Academy Award-winning film "Grand Hotel," once said: "There are shortcuts to happiness, and dancing is one of them." If dancing is a shortcut to happiness for you, then dancing at sea can be a quick step to bliss. Why? Cruise ships offer dance aficionados a wide variety of enticing venues, from trendy nightclubs playing the latest club music to posh, outdoor dancing under the stars, elegant ballrooms and many a dance lounge in between. Better still, thanks to "Dancing With the Stars" and other popular dance shows, there has been a boost in dance-themed cruises where you can perfect your skills -- including "Dancing With the Stars" theme cruises complete with professional dancers and celebrities. Before we share our favorite ships for dancing at sea, here are a few good things to know about shaking your booty at sea: If you prefer a smoke-free atmosphere when you dance, head for the nightclubs on Holland America, Celebrity, Norwegian, Princess and Royal Caribbean, as well as Crystal's Palm Court and Cunard's ballrooms. Clubs on other ships can get a bit smoky. Most Europeans love to dance, so you'll find the dance floors busy on European lines like Costa and MSC. These ships feature more dance space, too. While American lines tend to have larger casinos than dance clubs, European ships divvy up their space the opposite way. Single ladies (or those without dancing partners) can hit the floor with a dance host on Cunard, Crystal, Silversea and Holland America.
