The Two Artists who Inspires me

In music we have to create a DLO of the two artist who inspires us in Music.
Here are my two artist who inspires me in Music.
Stan Walker & Aaliyah

Music level 1

What are yous doing that is challenging:
Me and my group challenged ourselves to pick a song we haven't played before or know it.


My goal:
My Goal is to try and be on time with others, and to get excellence


1. Your song choice
My group chose the song called 'Breakaway' by Kelly Clarkson, because we've never heard of it and we decided to challenge ourselves by learning a song we've never played before 0r sang before.

2. Who are you working with and what are each person doing?
Manuwa & Tyrepa
Manuwa has the skill to sing, so she's singing.
Tyrepa is playing guitar because the song sounds real nice with a guitar
My instrument:

My group wants me to play the drums because the song we decided to all play has a lot of drumming. 
Drums maybe the oldest instrument of man kind, back to the time where people learned to keep rhythm, and was bought into the word as far back as 6000 BC.

Drums have been found in China which goes back to ancient times. Originally they were made in ancient Turkey or China, but were also used in Israel and Egypt.

3.What is the song about (research it ) and find out the original composer:
Originally it was written by Avril Lavigne which she worked on with professional songwriters Matthew Gerard and B. Beneate. It was meant to be for Lavigne's second album 'Under my skin'  but she didn't think it would fit the album so she let Clarkson record it as a single. The song was so good that at the last minute, Clarkson's second album was renames 'Breakaway'.
The song is about breaking away from an old life and trying new things. Some may even know it as a song about growing up, and that could be true in a way, but it is mostly about forgetting about your past and moving on by starting a fresh new start, becoming a new person. The theme came in thought from Clarkson, who could relate to the lyrics.

The film 'I, robot'

Did you enjoy the film? why/why not?
I really enjoyed watching the film because it had a lot of interesting scene. I also because the film technique the directer was using shows me what a person is like or what their feelings are.

Who was your favourite and least favourite character and why?
What did you think of the ending?
My favourite character of the film is Detective Del Spooner ( Will Smith )  because he's funny and he does a lot of action scene and also he had a very emotional story in the past which explained why he didn't like robots before. He had this robot arm that helps him fight and it's very cool, and he's the main character.
I don't have a least favourite character because they all have purpose in the film and it connects the movie together. Also I like all the characters because I enjoed them all.

How would you have ended it differently?
I really don't know because I really liked the ending.

What themes/messages/ideas do you think the director was trying to get across?
That if you depend too much on technology it makes it hard for you to depend on people. 
Putting power on technology, technology might have power over you.
