There are many kinds of music in the world, pop music, classical music, folk music and so on. Do you know country music? It's a traditional kind of music from the southern states of America. I like it very much! It will take me away for a while after I am tired. The guitars and songs will take me to mountains and fields.
Country music usually talks of everyday life and feeling. It's like the spirit of America, easy to understand, slow and simple.
Country music developed in the Southern United States. It was the folk music of American countryside. Many of songs tell about the lives of farmers. They talk about love, crops or death. The life of the countryside can be hard, so the words in country music are often sad. At first, people played the music only at family parties.
But it became more popular later. In the 1920s, people played country songs on the radio, and they made them into records.
When people in the countryside moved to towns and cities to look for work, they took their music with them. Country music continued to change and became popular across America.
John Denver was one of America's most famous country singers in the 1970s. His song Take Me Home, Country Roads is well-known and people still play it today.

Liu Yifei 14 Shanxi | When I got to Middle School, I was sad to find out that all of my classmates had studied everything before the class started. During class, everyone knew the answers to our teacher's questions, but I did not. I came last in the first test. So I looked for ways of learning online. For example, for history, drawing the timeline on paper helped me a lot. My grades then got a lot better. I'm very happy for myself. |
