If you are looking for ways to keep track of your culture
and to know what is happening in the lives and minds of the youth of your
culture, then there are many resources you need to consider. You can read
magazines, watch television, watch the latest movies, or spend time on a
university or college campus near you. Another great and inexpensive way to get
a handle of this generation is to pay attention to the chart music that is on
the radio every day of the week.
Basically, chart music is the top music of our culture. It
is the most popular music that is being listened to by the most people. There
is chart music in a variety of music genres, and each week the top music of
many genres is put on the radio for the whole country to hear. So if you are
looking for a way to get up to speed with the youth of our world or even of
your own children's world, then tune in to chart music and pay attention to it.
Just how do you pay attention to chart music? Well, the
first thing that you need to do is just listen to it. Instead of going for your
favorite radio station when you jump in the car each day, find the radio
stations that are playing the chart music and listen in to those. Your kids can
tell you those popular radio stations if you don't already know. You do not
necessarily have to set aside hours of valuable time each week to get to know
chart music. Instead you can just utilize your time in the car for a different
purpose.
Another way to pay attention to chart music is to talk to
your kids about the music they are listening. Let them put on music of their
choice when they are in the car, and even ask to borrow some of the CD's. Be
prepared that you may be offended with their music choices, but determine ahead
of time that you are simply trying to use chart music to get a grasp of their
lives, not to discipline them in any way. Start really listening to the words
of chart music too.
The lyrics in chart music are a huge reflection of what the
youth of our nation are thinking about and caring about. So listen up and you
may find that you learn a great deal. You may be surprised by the depth of
thought and emotion that our youth are experiencing each day. Chart music is a
great way for parents to keep a handle on the interests of their kids, so tune
your radio into their radio today.
