The Song that Got Stuck in My Head

Have you ever heard a song that is so meaningful to you?

It was a hot summer day, the radio was on when I heard a song that greatly impacted me I didn’t even try to understand the lyrics I just loved the rhythm. Years later, I got my first instrument a ukulele �" it has four nylon strings that are softer than the guitar’s strings. It is made up of smooth quality wood that smells good like the guitar, but it is small like the violin. After that, I learned the basics and became kind of good at it.

It was a cold; cold night and the radio were still on and I heard that song again and it got stuck in my head again and I remembered the first time I heard that song. After that night I tried to learn that song on my new instrument, as I strummed the strings, I felt alive because I could play the song that I love. Sometime after that, the song was kind of overplayed as it was all over the radio. My taste in music kind of changed as I matured and as I became more advanced with my instrument, I learned how to finger style and it is hard to transition from strumming to finger style the skill gap has a huge gap and someday, hopefully I could play the song that got stuck in my head in other ways in other ways.

TO BE CONTINUED!

Knowing you, I love your talent in music! It's invigorating to know where you started your hobby and how you continued to excel in it. I loved seeing your perspective on how you hear music by playing an instrument because I, myself, is not talented in it and I'm curious about how a musician hears music. Overall, I admire your use of words in describing the sounds and feels of a ukulele. I would love to see more of your work!

The words used were fit to describe the feeling of hearing that song, the instruments, and even about skills.
Also, it's inspiring how the author wrote about something that inspired them, came to love and is now working towards that goal. Keep up with the writing and good luck on getting to finally play that song!! :))

I found it short, simple and straight to the point. I like how you described your musical journey. It would be better if the author elaborated even more, and described the experience with more depth.

This felt very wholesome and cute to me hahaha. However, I wish you wrote about this piece a bit clearer. In need of more vocabulary and editing out errors. Nice piece! It properly conveyed the simple joy you got from a song which really inspired you to pursue music!

I like how the writer portrays his love for music in the work, you can tell that from the imageries that he used, he expresses a sense of passion for the instruments and songs he uses in the work. His work really speaks to aspiring musicians, I believe this work has sparked a little passion for music also. Overall I love the imagery he used. It truly shows how music can not only produce sound but if powerful enough can paint images in your mind.

You could do better in terms of word choice and sentence construction but overall it was a very good story and very meaningful.

I love the flow of it and you should continue this story, describing the story by music is great because you express your feelings here

The way you described how music has impacted your life is really good because you were really able to tell the audience just exactly how much music means to you. Although it is a good story, I hope that next time you can make it longer, because I really feel like you still have a lot to say about this if it has greatly affected your life, I’ll be waiting for the continuation hehe.
