Why aren't they bigger?!? (Acts you may have missed) 1:15:27

8m ago1:15:27

1:15:27

We all wonder how some performers made it big. We question their talent, their fans and the world in general when we see their enduring popularity, and frankly we've had enough of them.

1:18:42

Music can change your mood instantly. It can bring you joy or sorrow, and it can make you feel weird in ways you can't explain.

Sometimes even new songs will have a strange effect on y…

2M ago1:17:41

1:17:41

The power of music videos was fully harnessed when MTV debuted in 1981, opening the world to new genres in popular music while diminishing the influence of record labels and the old guard performers.
