David Byrne's article is about music. More importantly about why music is made. In his eyes music has evolved to fit the venue rather than the venue changing for the music. He talks about how operas used to be loud and obnoxious things where the music was more of a background noise rahter than the main focus. He also talks about how music has changed in clubs and how technology has made it so any music can be listened to anywhere.

1. This is War - 30 Seconds to Mars: This song is a stadium rock song. The chorus is made to be heavy and reveberate over itself.

2. Pieces - Red: This is one of the songs that feels like the artist is singing to one person, but could still be a played in a stadium.

3. Fight Inside - Red: This song is not an anthem but its still a song that would be meant for a concert venue. Its in between an anthem and an intimate song.

4. Viva La Vida - Coldplay: This is a mix of orchestra and stadium rock. They use big orchestral intsruments as the music while the lyrics ae those of an anthem.

5. You're Gonna Go Far Kid - The Offspring: This is an anthem. It keeps the audience pumped up the whole time.

6. Billie Jean - Michael Jackson: This one is also an anthem. It doesn't have the same effect on people though. It gets them pumped up but more in the since of what Michael was doing on stage than the song itself.

7. Feeling Good -Michael Buble: This song is remenant of Sinatra and the rat pack. Its got a jazzy feel while having a bang to it.

8. Fever Dream - Iron & Wine: This song is meant for a more intimate scene. A small club, or similar. It seems like he is almost singing you a lullaby.

9. Goodnight Moon - Go Radio: This is one of those songs that wouldn't have the same effect if the mic wasn't invented. It has parts that are big then other parts that are there to fit more into a private scene.

10. Home - Three Days Grace:This song is one of those that is almost built a for a car or listening to on your headphones. It can be played at a concert but it's more a song that is for a smaller group.

11. Breaking The Habit - Linkin Park: This is a big stdium rock song. It's one of the ones that you would hear blasting through the car speakers so others can hear it gratis.

12. Flightless Bird, American Mouth - Iron & Wine: This is another song that has a lullaby feel. It reminds me of what a tribal song should be; just the meaning of the words having a different meaning than the song as a whole.

13. Misty Mountains - Peter Hollens: This song reminds me almost of tribal african music. The words reverberate through each other and hit you in your core.

14. Duel of the Fates - John Williams: This song is an orchestral piece. It has ebbs and flows that would run through the orchesta hall. The way its built it also work very well for the movies with a surround sound that hits different notes harder.

15. Mad World - Michael Andrews: This is one of those songs thats intimate but if you listen to the words it is a lot sadder than an intimate song. It would be made for a smaller space in my eyes but could hold its owns at a bigger place.
