Select a Song to describe and provide the url links so we can listen to your song selection while we read your descriptions and commentary.

Provide some information about the musician or group whose music you are posting - time period of the recording, genre of music represented, country of origin, influences, etc.

List what you notice in the music itself--the instruments being used, the unique timbre (bright, dark, heavy, light, gravelly, pure, round, jagged, etc.) of these instruments, the timbre of the singer's voice (if applicable), the interpretation of the lyrics (if applicable), the tempo, the texture, the mood conveyed, improvisation (be sure to list the instrument(s) being played), and try to include what it is that really makes the song stand out to you--perhaps it is one particular instrument or a singer's voice, an improvised solo, the bass line, the groove, the tempo, etc.
