Beat

In rock music there is a distinct and almost overwhelming beat.
No single beat is characteristic of the music today.
But each song has an easily recognizable rhythm.
As you listen to a song your foot usually starts to pick up the beat.
Before long, your entire body seems to move with it.
Your head pounds with the beat, and there is no room for thought.
Only the surge of the music is important.
In its own way, rock music is as dominant as the rock Gibraltar.
Its message is an overpowering emotional one.
