Discovering more new music: Бумбокс, Егор Крид and more

I always like discovering new music. Well it is new music to me. I know that I am not discovering them. I have subscribed to some Russian and Ukrainian music channels on YouTube. Бумбокс, Егор Крид, Тимaти and MC Doni are among those whose music I enjoy. I think MC Doni and Егор Крид are sexy. Тимaти did a song with several other musicians. It is called "Tattoo." The video for this song has some sexy guys with tattoos. I hope that I will be able to find some Ukrainian music. Listening to Russian pop and hip hop has helped me to remember what I learned so long ago. "Я люблю тебя," is a phrase I hear in a lot of songs. I am fond of how that sounds, and it is fun to say. Years ago my instructor told me that I was mispronouncing it, but I was using the pronunciation that I heard in operas. Years later I was told that I was pronouncing it correctly. I have been told that I pronounce the little I know of Russian without accent. It is funny that people say I speak English with an accent.

There are some language videos on YouTube, I will have to check them out sometime. Sometimes I forget when to use direct and indirect articles in English. I do this more frequently when I am writing.

Once I took a test in a men's fashion magazine. It was about "American Style." It was possible to have a negative score. My score was -287. (That is approximate.) I just remember the interpretation of my score. It said that I was not born in the United States and that I definitely did not grow up speaking English. I was born is the U.S.A., I grew here speaking English. Some of the views I had about fashion were more European at that time. These styles eventually became accepted here. This interpretation made me smile.

Goodnight.
