        My Idea of Pop Music
        　　Pop music is held I contempt by many people.In these people’s eyes pop
music is always in sharp contrast to “lofty music”.The latter refers to
symphonies and operas of the European countries.They show great concern for the
fact that many people prefer pop music to symhonies, because for them pop music
should be excluded from the holy palace of music.
        　　Conversely,many people have an ordor for pop music.They argue that people
who want us to listen to symhonies are advocating a kind of “elite culture”.This notion is unacceptable to pop music fans,for they don’t believe that
symphonies are loftier than pop music.The difference only lies in the interests
of different people.It is unfair to speak of pop music with contempt while
speaking of symphonies with awe.
        　　In conclusion,my idea is that just as there is no distinction between high
culture and low culture,so it is inappropriate to say pop music belongs to the
“lower” people whereas symphonies in a higher,loftier form of music.After all,there are many badly-composed symphonies.And we can’t expect every piece of pop
music to be excellent.Pop music reflects the thoughts and interests of a
certain age group of a generation.It is the product of a certain age,but it
also has something universal, something that belongs to all human beings,that
underlies its great success among people.In this sense it is rather foolish for
some peopleof media to show great concern simply because many people prefer pop
music. Anyway pop music has become an indispensable part of the human
family.
