Best Songs of the Twentieth Century
Music lovers in the United States recently voted for the best songs of the 20th
century. The competition was designed to help school children learn about music. 
Two organizations have started a program for better music education in schools. The
Recording Industry Association of America and the National Endowment for the
Arts began the project with a competition called ‘Songs of the Century’. Hundreds
of music-lovers across the country voted for songs they liked best from the past one
hundred years. Elected officials, people in the music industry, teachers, students
and media representatives were among the voters. They chose from a list of more
than 1000 recordings of historical importance. The voters chose 365 Songs of the
Century. Children in 10,000 schools will hear the songs on school computers later
this year. They will also learn about how music is written, performed and produced.
The ‘Songs of the Century’ competition was divided into nine periods. The first
period was from 1890 to 1920.  During these years, many people came from other
countries to live in the United States. Some of the music of this time showed their
love for their new country. For example, voters chose a recording of ‘America the
Beautiful’ sung by Louise Homer. They also liked the happy rhythms of a piano
piece written and played by Scott Joplin called ‘The Entertainer’. Voters chose
‘Take Me Out to the Ballgame’, sung by Billy Murray, as the top song of that time. It
honours baseball, America’s national sport. The voters also chose several kinds of
music from the 1990s. They voted for the rewritten version of a sad song by Elton
John called ‘Candle in the Wind’. They also liked the happy sound of ‘Livin' La Vida
Loca’ by Ricky Martin. The song voters liked best from the last ten years of the
century was by Nirvana.  It’s called ‘Smells like Teen Spirit’.
