Pretenders: Middle of the Road
Why the artist chooses this song to perform: I think the artist choose to perform this song because in the lyrics it says normal everyday things that they can do while it being a fast-paced entertaining song to help attract the audience into donating more money for Ethiopia as the song had reached 19th on the charts in the US at its peak.
Is this a form of protest: Yes because this song is being played to help fundraise for a country in need when no one else wants to try to help Ethiopia so in a sense this song is a stand to help Ethiopia.
Do I think someone could do a similar concert today: Yes because there are still places that need help just like Ethiopia and many people are willing to help and people who have fame and that could attract help want to help with issues happening.
What is my favorite song performed: This song is Run-DMC King of Rock:
How significant is music and how musicians today affecting change in the world: Music is still huge and the power music has on people is huge as they can affect many things and talk about many issues through their music. People are still wanting to use music to help like Ariana grande when someone got shot at her concert she had another concert in the memorial and to speak on this issue.
