× I have a big interest in happy music.
✓ I have a strong interest in happy music.
Use 'strong interest' or 'great interest' rather than 'big interest'. 'Big' is used for physical size; 'strong' or 'great' are natural collocations with 'interest'.
× I find uh, pretty excited.
✓ I feel pretty excited.
Use the stative verb 'feel' to describe an emotional state. 'Find' with an adjective is possible but usually means 'consider'; here 'feel' is more appropriate.
× I exciting to uh, listen to happy music and I find a happy music can push my mood up when I hear of them.
✓ I am excited to listen to happy music, and I find happy music can lift my mood when I hear it.
Several issues: need the verb 'be' + adjective ('am excited'), not 'I exciting'. Remove the article before 'happy music' unless specifying particular songs. Use 'lift my mood' or 'cheer me up' rather than 'push my mood up'. Use 'it' for 'music' (singular uncountable) not 'them'. Also remove 'of' after 'hear'.
× Definitely, especially a bit songs are.
✓ Definitely, especially upbeat songs are.
Original phrase 'a bit songs are' is ungrammatical. Use 'upbeat songs' or 'a bit faster songs' depending on meaning. Ensure adjective placement before noun.
× For instance, I usually listen to upbeat songs while doing exercise or working out is can push my mood up a lot.
✓ For instance, I usually listen to upbeat songs while exercising or working out; they can lift my mood a lot.
Remove 'is' and use gerund 'exercising' or 'working out'. Use a separate subject 'they' to refer to 'songs' and proper verb 'can lift'.
× I haven't yet but I also really like to sing so maybe I would try a music classes in the future.
✓ I haven't yet, but I really like to sing, so maybe I will try music classes in the future.
Use 'music classes' (no 'a' before plural). Use 'will' for future intention rather than 'would' in this context. Add commas for clarity.
× Well depends, I usually listen to music while sleeping, but I wouldn't listen to pop music while studying because I fight is pretty distracting and hard to focus on reading.
✓ Well, it depends. I usually listen to music while sleeping, but I wouldn't listen to pop music while studying because I find it pretty distracting and hard to focus on reading.
Add subject 'it' in 'it depends'. Replace 'I fight is' with 'I find it' (wrong verb and extra 'is'). Use 'find it distracting' and 'hard to focus on reading' is acceptable.
