Dancing and Singing

               While some people can sing, other people can dance.  The way people dance is like the way a person sings because dancing is just another expression and is shown through body movement while signing is an expression heard through vocal sound.  If a person is talented enough and has a lot of coordination it is even possible for them to sing and dance at the same time.  Dancing can be a talent learned while singing is normally a gift that is hard to pick up on.
                Many songs that are played on the radio today have people singing in them with combined background music.  Songs are normally created to sell easily and be catchy so people will want to buy it on iTunes or another music store.  If the song has decent lyrics and a person who is able to sing them well then it will be easier for people to like and enjoy.  While having the song sell on iTunes many people want to see the official music video on YouTube and have the song relate to dance moves and imagery of other sorts.  For a person to be in a music video the main concern is dancing because singing can always be added later and inserted into the video, but the people who do live performances have to normally dance (or walk around stylishly) and sing at the same time.  Those people would be the main performers and the focus on stage.  Music is created for entertainment and there are a lot of different elements to the music like dancing, singing, and instrumental noise.  Each song is normally made to be easily remembered and sung or hummed even when the song is not playing.
                Has anyone ever heard a person hum a song or sing it and then the next thing you know the song is stuck in your head?  Well, music can be contagious.  Music may not be a disease that is passed from person to person, but it is a sound that easily passed from person to person.  Music is very catchy and is a wonderful thing.  A song can instantly put a person in a good mood and stick in their head even after the song is over.  Having the song being stuck in a person’s head would be like having a broken record playing the same chords over and over again.  The catchy songs that get stuck in someone’s head can be called “earworms”.  These songs are either loved and make the person happy or the songs are hated and just stuck in someone’s head.
