Classic and Folk Song

First of all, classic songs and folk songs are totally different. Most of classic songs are instrumental songs such as piano, violin, etc. However, folk songs are mostly play by folk guitar and have drum sound but not electric sound that most of rock band play. My favorite folk artist is John Lennon who died long time ago for assassination. His songs are very popular in around the world, his one of the popular song "Happy Xmas(war is over)" is

My favorite classic artist is Chopin, actually he writing about how war effect people's peace and he is telling that we should stop the war when it is Xmas, so people around the world can be live peaceful.

This song is very beautiful and it is one of my favorite song. Every Xmas, this song is playing in anywhere around the world to make people feel peace. Another popular song and also my favorite is "Stand By Me".

I think you have heard this song, this was theme song of a movie in long time ago and this song made big hit. I will recommend his best album "The Very Best of John Lennon", I have this CD and this include the song I just introduced to you! I have a CD of Chopin which is Piano Favoirites. I really loves the piano sound, it make me relax. Thus, I listen to Chopin when I'm tired or when I want to relax. I bought this CD when I was living in New Zealand and most CD was very expensive in there so I couldn't buy new CDs. But when I looked to the classic CDs, it was half price of the normal CD and I thought it is good time to listen to some piano sound because I had pretty busy days. And when I listen to it, I was really impressed of the sound!! It was really cool, especially the piano played really fast. I hope you can listen to this CD also.
