“Music is always a commentary on society”
— Frank Zappa
Simplified Meaning:
Music often reflects what is happening in the world around us. It can tell stories about people's lives, struggles, or joys. For example, songs from the 1960s in America often spoke about peace and equality because many people were fighting for civil rights and against war. Music can show how different generations think and feel about important issues. When you listen to modern songs, you might hear themes about technology, climate change, or social justice, which are big parts of today's world. So, by paying attention to music, you can learn a lot about what matters to people during different times.
