There was not a single song on the album that did not come to life and cause all of us to relate to every emotion within their songs. When listening to “Go Your Own Way” one hears the lyrics, “Loving you isn't the right thing to do. / How can I ever change things that I feel? / If I could baby I'd give you my world. / How can I when you won't take it from me? / You can go your own way, go your own way.” These lyrics capture your soul. They speak of the pain that accompanies the demise of a relationship. On the other hand, “Don’t Stop” provokes feelings of hope and optimism instead of wallowing in the past. The entire playlist of Rumors causes lovers to reflect upon their own past heartbreak and relate. The album’s ability to make that kind impression on a person’s heart makes it phenomenal. We all desire to be able to relate to others and to feel understood. Once we make that connection, it remains with us always.
The song, when examined lyrically word for word, accurately portrays the implied emotions from character to character; the self-help obsessed teacher, the bullies, the loner, and Miss. Pomri’s (Drew Barrymore) obvious disgust of Sparkle Motion. Although, along with the presence of hatred, interpreted by examining the visual aspect of the montage, from character to character there as an undeniable theme of love in this particular clip as well. The Tears for Fears song is considered to be a love song all on its own, accurately titled “Head over Heels”. The fact that the actual dynamic of the scene is sped up, it makes the viewer feel dazed, as if he or she is actually walking in those halls, experiencing first hand what it feels like to be in school again, wondering if that special someone will walk by and lock eyes with one another.
Anytime someone takes a complicated emotion and simplifies it so I know it like I know the ABC’s, my heart wells with pride and admiration with an intensity that's slightly embarrassing. The album is uniquely defining for me mainly because it fits into so many aspects of life. Although it has a seemingly shallow message about her ex-boyfriend Harry Styles, I have always thought of it as slightly deeper. With lyrics like “This love is alive back from the dead” and “Take my hand and don’t ever drop it, my love” I relate it to daily life. One song describes a time when all you want to do is hide, but the next track describes something beautiful and lovely. Just like one day the storms are raging everywhere I go, but the next God has cleared the skies and created something lovely. The album taught me to not be ashamed of who I am or what I believe, so for that I owe Swift big time. Finally, I recently fell in love with writing songs and at 1989’s core it's just the result of great songwriting. Songwriting does for me what punching someone does for someone
The mood displayed in this song is much more consistent than that of “Bohemian Rhapsody.” The mood throughout this song is to stay true to who you are no matter of how much pain it may cost you. This mood is very deep when you contemplate it because there are people in this world that never see their family since they had a conflict or feud. This song is trying to say to people to make up with your family or whatever is holding you back from being who you are. The tone set in this song by the 80’s rock band is to always be who you are and true to who you are no matter of what happened in the past because there is always going to be a future. Bon Jovi made really clever figurative language when writing this song. He used this form of writing in almost every line of the song, which makes the song be interpreted in many different ways by different people. The first example found in the song of figurative language says, “Like a blind dog without a bone, I was a gypsy lost in the twilight zone.” This line shows that the main character of the song is confused of where they belong and are confused on where to head next. The following example of figurative language states, “Saving dimes.” You can conclude from this line that the main character of the song is tight on money and could possibly be living from pay to pay. We also learn from more figurative language used throughout the song that the
First, the song shows what love can actually do to you as a whole. It can make you feel like you lost a piece of yourself
This theme is brought through the song by showing multiple literary devices. Such as “I'm the one at sail, I’m the master of my sea”. This metaphor shows the realization and empowerment that oneself can give in a depressing situation. This simile “Falling like ashes to the ground, Hoping my feelings they would drown” compares his feeling of sadness and depression to ashes, and wanting them to drown and vanish, from his life. This line, “All the hate that you’ve heard has turned your spirit to a dove” explains how all of the hate that he has experienced and gone through has turned his feelings around, and decided to look on the bright side of things. Personally I think this is a great
Both the song lyrics and the video have a core ethos that they share. The trend of ethos in the video is somewhat more noticeable than the ethos in the song because of the visuals provided, but still just as complex. Whereas in the song the writer is simply stating that he wishes he could turn back time, in the video, he brings the audience back in time with him to see the things that he experienced as a child.
Every song can make one feel the emotion of the song. Depending on the song whether it is “Before He Cheats” or “Just A Dream” will show different emotions. In the song “Before He Cheats,” “I took a Louisville Slugger to both headlights, a hole in all 4 tires… Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.” This emotion you can say is anger, she is also heartbroken but past the crying and sad part of it but to the point of anger and hatred. This song can really get you pumped up and hating all the cheaters in the world. In the song “Just A Dream” her emotion starts out somewhat happy, “It was two weeks after the day she turned eighteen, All dressed in white, Going to the church that night, She had his box of letters in the passenger seat, Sixpence in a shoe,
this song resembles how Romeo was meant to be with Juliet.“this woman is my destiny”. This is telling us that he is not giving up because they were “born to be together”.This song has a theme of love vs. infatuation and has a motif of fate/free will. Also, the conflict is whether or not it is true love, but as in Romeo and Juliet they know it is from first sight.
Beyonce uses pathos, the first of the three appeals in her song by using very descriptive phrases. When she states, “I’d listen to her, `cause I know how it hurts,” Beyonce is telling her audience that she understands what it is like to be hurt, and that if she were a boy, she would treat her women better because she could understand where she was coming from. This tugs at the listener’s heart because you can see that she has been emotionally hurt from a past relationship. Also, many people can relate to what she is disclosing. It is human nature for people to get emotionally damaged in a relationship and therefore her feelings are empathized. She also uses syntax by the way she orders her words by telling a story. If the song was not in story form, it would not produce the great impact that it does.
However, as this freedom was increasingly integrated into American culture over time, the amount of love related songs dramatically dropped. In 1966, only 69.5% of produced songs were about love and courtship (Carey 723). Rock ‘n’ roll provided the perfect form of expression in the 1950’s. It combined lyrical ties to radical social changes and catchy rhythms unique to its generation.
Pop music is actually meaning to popular music. Pop has the latest hits and is highest in the charts. Good rhythm, a catchy melody and is easy to remember can actually define In the 1950’s pop music started and was able to gain much of the popularity around in the world. Pop music was actually influenced by the beat and arrangements of rock n’ roll. From that point both musical elements of pop and rock n roll combines, but pop music ended up taking up the dominance in the charts. Examples of pop music can be: Katy Perry, Pitbull, Little mix, one direction, Lady Gaga, and demi lovato (Matt
“I love you, please say you love me too,” she sings. “I love you / I will be your light, shining through your eyes.” Still yet, we have “Crazy in Love” by Beyonce’ and Jay-Z, hip-hop artists. “Your love’s got me looking so crazy right now,” they sing/rap. “Looking so crazy in love.” Despite the musical differences between all these artists, all three songs/genres were able to give light to the theme of love. And even though the theme may be the same, the music and words were not. So even though two songs may have a theme that is similar, themes in music add diversity.
All of the songs on this album relay different messages to listeners. Most songs contain a lot of pathos, call to action and more. Pathos is really prominent in certain songs such as Sorry, Formation, and Freedom. An excerpt from Sorry says: “Now you want to say you 're sorry/Now you want to call me crying/Now you gotta see me wildin '/Now I 'm the one that 's lying/And I don 't feel bad about it/It 's exactly what you get.” This displays the emotions after getting out of a relationship or during the struggles of it. Other lyrics from this song that display this
Comprehending her lyrics, one may perceive from the understanding that her intended audience is actually anyone who may be feeling the same way as her and the effect in which she wishes to have upon them is to be like her in the
