He wanted me to go to college and become a teacher as he and his bother were.”Fields explained that he made a great effort to please his father, but often his love of music became too great and he would steal into a garden behind his house and play his guitar and make up of songs,.“I made it to Stanton College,” he laughed, “but I took accounting(会计) instead of teaching. And to pay my own way, I played the guitar and sang at a local nightclub.”While Fields was still in his senior year (大学四年级), an executive (总裁) of a record company came into the club as he was singing one of the his own songs. The executive liked what he heard and signed the man to a contract (合同).Since graduating from Stanton College in 1973, Fields spent his full time writing and singing songs. “My Heartache,” a song he wrote while in college, reached number seventeen in the top twenty hit songs of 1974 and in 1977 his song “Rambling” was the song for the movie of the same name.51.

Some songs remind us of our childhood or youth. Other remind of the people we love. Many important occasions, like wedding and funerals, have special music. Every nation has a national song like the American “The Star-Spangled Banner”. In the U.S. high school and colleges have school songs too.Music is a part of the history of America. It expresses the problems and feelings of its people. As the years pass, the music grows and changes.Modern science has also changed music. Inventions like records, radio, movies, electric instruments, tape records and videos have changed the way we play and listen to music. They have helped to make music an important form of international communication.American music, from the earliest folk songs to modern “pop”, is known around the world. Music is one of Americas most important exports. It brings the people of the world together, even when people can not understand the same language, they ca n share the same music.
