music tones in themselves have no specific meanings. Different people may get different things from the same
musical performance. Though some music works are difficult to understand, people need music in their daily life
because it brings fun to them. Different people like different music: some love classical music, and others take
pleasure in pop music. Most young people like pop music.
Pop music began in the USA and became popular around the world during the 1950s and 60s. The best-known

and it has now begun to become the most popular. Much pop music is without artistic value (价值), but the works
