The symbolism in this song is that life is hard for other members of the society. This song regards a man trying/ resolving to alter his ways before starting to change the world. This

The tone is clearly sombre, however, once it gets to the chorus, the music becomes joyous because it identifies that someday they will not be bullied anymore and be successful whereas the bullies remain mean. These devices work together to make the song even more remarkable and

I chose this song because, in my opinion, it has a good thesis that backs up the song lyrics and it gives you a positive feeling. Basically, the song is telling us to always keep our faith and stay strong no matter what. It encourages people to

I think the tone of the song is sad. When you keep on listening to the song becomes calm and happier, it relates to Terry because this song is about getting back up and not giving up, and that is exactly what Terry did. Another line that relates to Terry's journey because in that time of he was very bothered with the drivers behind him on the narrow road. ( line is:“I picked myself back up”) This one line really connects to Terry's life and quote. The line is “now I have to rise,i’m not giving up.” it relates to Terry because when Terry got cancer he didn't give up he decided to raise at less 1$ for each child in Canada, it is so huge that he really thought that he should do something about children that have cancer because they cannot do anything about it but he decided that he is going to do something about it.

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

So why would the band choose to illustrate such a serious stage of personal development with the nursery rhyme-like style of the song's chorus? Before we get to that, the song's emotional and psychological message must first be examined.

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

The lyrics gather the attention of those African-Americans enduring racial discrimination to be prepare for a change, “You will not be able to stay home/brother/You will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out”(lines 1-2).It feels like the Heron is conveying a sign of desperation to those listeners.Unity is essential for everyone who happens to

Music has been used for centuries to inspire and influence others. No matter what genre, there is always an important message to take from a song. In the song “Angry Anymore”, composed by Ani DiFranco stylistic devices of imagery, repetition, and symbolism are used to convey difficult situations happen in life, but understanding and forgiveness are necessary for moving on. The song begins with the phrase, “Growing up it was just me and my mom against the world and all my sympathies were with her.”(1-2). This quote represents the difficult situation DiFranco faced as a young child. Growing up without a father, she relied on her mother for support and guidance. The two had an unbreakable bond due to their circumstances. As a result, she sympathises

The pre-chorus has an underlying, powerful message. She sings, "I'm telling these tears to go and fall away; May the last one burn into flames." Her tears are a metaphor for continuous push and pull

I would recommend this song to practically everyone, especially the ones that are going through hard times and think that they are alone. Everything has an end: good and bad

The song is about breaking away from an old life and trying new things. Some may even consider it a song about growing up, and that could be true in some ways, but it is mostly about shedding your past and becoming a new person. Firstly, she talks about her childhood in her hometown and dreams that she wants to achieve to make her life happier and meaningful. The poet tries to work hard to reach her dream, but she has to meet obstructions from her surroundings that make her finally feel uncomfortable to stay in her hometown. And with strong motivation to reach her goal, the poet assures herself to move to another place, but when she is able to reach her dream, she will not forget her past and people she loves.

He talks directly to his audience when he says “I know it hurts sometimes, but you’ll get over it”. I really like how this was written for those people who are currently stuck in a dark place. He pours out his emotion into this song. He offers words of encouragement that the listeners can and will succeed. After hearing this song, I instantly replayed it countless time to hear the message “You’ll get over it”.

It is a sin for anyone to destroy, in a blink of an eye, what they have been working on for months or even years. Therefore, one should always face the hardships with a strong will, hold their head up high when facing an upcoming storm, because that is the only way they can survive the war that is life. Right towards the end of the song, there is an extremely empowering line that says “this road never looked so lonely, this house doesn’t burn down slowly to ashes” which stands as a reminder that right when the challenge becomes harder, one should never forget what they are fighting for and simply give up. The amount of determination reflected in this line is the reason why I listen to this song whenever I feel defeated by the obstacles. It comes to spark the flame of determination in my heart when I consider backing
