How Did The Beatles Affect My Life

693 Words3 Pages

The Beatles is a music band that I grew up listening to. I was really excited to know that the band was an option for this essay. I enjoyed hearing and seeing the Beatles all throughout my life. They were a well known band and very popular in my era. The first and last time I ever saw them live was in Santa Cruz sometime in the ninety’s. It was a beach concert. To me, it was one of the first concerts that I ever went to, and I was so excited to say the least.

Their songs were diverse, with each exertion standing on its own as a distinctive accomplishment. Their gifts were their voices. Lennon and McCartney both had brilliant singing voices, communicative, meticulous, flexible, and eye-catching. All four of them could sing though, and their synchronizations and multidimensional vocals were trademarks of their style. As far as the different genres the Beatles represented, this is something extraordinary in my eyes. They started out as a rock band doing cover tunes, then became a pop band then evolved into a psychedelic rock band and finally into musical artists who redefined modern popular music. For the most part, the Beatles were are rock band but in all actuality they were much much more. Their influence on modern music and culture in general is still being felt all around the world to this day. I believe they were one of the greatest musical artists of my

He then goes on to state that this opportunity they were given is what really caused them to become successful because without all this nights of long performances they wouldn't have moved from amateur status to pro status. Even though Hamburg gave The Beatles a great deal of time to perfect their skills, Gladwell fails to mention how people can shape and mold their own future. He fails to remembers that even though everyone isn’t always given the same chances and opportunities but some still choose to succeed because of their personal ambitions and their

Thus, I believe The Beatles’ performance of the song is effective in that sense.

I did not have a natural voice from a young age so learning to sing was challenging and pushed me beyond my orchestral limits--emotionally and physically--but with the strong desire I had and the toil I was willing to endure when learning this art, I persevered to becoming a singer.
