It has been over 40 years since the release of the song, “Love Rollercoaster” by the Ohio Players. I chose this song because it holds a mystery behind the recording. Legend of this song is that someone was murdered while this song was being recorded.
This story has been told in numerous versions, in which the naked model who is all sticky on the cover of the Ohio Players’ 1975 Honey album, Honey was horribly disfigured during the photo shoot because the Honey they poured on her was acrylic substance that bonded with her skin.
It is said that when she had went to the studio demanding justice for her suffering, the Band’s manager stabbed her to death. The scream about two minutes thirty seconds into the song, was Honey screaming through the glass. You would think that evidence like this

When you are in love you feel butterflies, like when you get on a rollercoaster. Once you feel that feeling, you may never want to get off the rollercoaster of love.
Love can be simple or be a paradox, it swings you back and forth like the curves of the Rollercoaster. The narrator Bryan wrote this song to go back and show all the levels of love, from puppy love to the feeling when your partner has left you. I chose this song because it has so much mystery; the lyrics have actual meaning compared to the music of the 21-century. It has been years and until this day the legend of the mystery lives on. No one will actually know what really happened to the girl on the cover of the album. This song is significant because it talks about the ups and downs that people go through while being in Love.
This feeling can have a huge affect on an individual and can leave you wanting to always feel Loved, when the honeymoon is over, that is when everything starts to fall, like when a rollercoaster goes down the sharp downward fall. Then finally when you’re down you come back up and feel those butterflies
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
Love commands a vast army of moods. Love can be dangerous and harsh but love can be joyful and happy. Love is like a war you have a battle between good and bad u can either fight till u get what u want or u don’t fight and loose what u got and now had. You can’t fake love or there won’t be no faith nor loyal u can depend on one person and put all the pressure on then u need to fight as well.
When it comes to love, everyone experiences it differently and it affects people in many different ways. Some experience it positively, some experience it negatively, and some do not experience it at all. Love is a very complicated subject to understand and even those who experienced love multiple times still find it confusing. It is not a straightforward concept and even though there might be science backing it up to a certain extent, it is still not something we completely grasp because it is different for everyone and there is just so much to it.
My story has a meaningful story behind it. The story is deep for me and even for the artist and probably for many other people. Hearing songs like this can inspire you. It inspired me to be thankful for the people in my life. One day they can be here the next they could be gone. You never know what’s going on in their lives.
After listening to the song, you could tell that it had significant meaning in history and impacted the lives of many listeners who had just lost a special friend or family member. This is indicated by these sentences in the lyrics; ‘Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show’, ‘...you're gone’, ‘The night they took my friend’, ‘you still livin' your life after death’, ‘I’ll be missing you’, ‘Thinking of the day, When you went away, What a life to take, What a bond to break’, ‘... hard with you not around’, ‘...you in heaven smilin' down’ and ‘Watchin' us while we pray for you’. This song is a tribute to "The Notorious B.I.G."; Christopher Wallace, also known as “Biggie smalls”, who was murdered on March 9, 1997, at the age of 24. The song was released a month after his death (the same year), and became a number 1 hit all over the
Love comes in numerous ways and can be expressed in countless fashions. Love is powerful, has a meaning, and is capable of eclipsing time all due to the human psyche. One can love anything from a family member, to a fictional character in a TV show, or even an inanimate object. The fluidity of love is what makes it so difficult to understand if one is “in love” or has ever experienced love. Experiences often mold a person’s perspective on what love truly is. Love is not an emotion, but rather a condition of the mind that cause one to act in ways that are uncharacteristic. It can be blinding, obsessive, and pure, depending on the reciprocation of the love. Since love is an abstract concept, one simply cannot measure how much love they have received or given alike. Although the human brain can perceive and interpret other’s actions or words as signs of love and care, in which the mind processes this into the mental psyche that is love.
It is a message to the audiences about real life. It does not always go the way you want or planned it. That life is a bumpy road and no matter what happens do not lose hope. Do not dwell in the past, do not let the past make you, do not hold onto previous pains, let go of things you cannot change, and keep moving forward because that is how life should be. Communication is powerful because it can be a perfomative action such as Tracy singing her song. Her music is an instrument of power and do things with words like singing. Through her interaction and performance serves to influence in a way any of the other participants. However, there were difficulties and challenges to understanding this case because the lyrics of the song had a lot of underlying meanings. Tracy wrote the song with hidden messages and metaphors for listeners to listen
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 I chose talks about not telling the person you love how you feel until it’s too late and they are too far gone. Coming from the quote “you don’t know what you have tell you lose It”. I’ve heard this quote from dozens of people, maybe it’s because people relate to it by personal experiences. The reason I chose this song is because well for one I love George Strait, second because I relate to the lyrics and it can connect to anything not just couples, perhaps a friend or for example, there’s me I relate to it because I regret not telling my stepdad how much I appreciate everything he did for me and for not telling him how much I love him before he was long gone and now that I have no way to communicate
Love is a variety of different emotional and mental states, typically strongly and positively experienced, that ranges from deepest interpersonal affection to simple pleasure. This value is precious amongst all humans, it is what makes or breaks us. Not only does love remind us of a time that was relevant or memorable,
This very slow song, so in my opinion I think it reinforces a sense of bittersweet, because even though she mentions how she wants to be remembered for the good things that she did she also mentions death and regrets in her song.
Love is Like a Roller Coaster Riding a roller coaster has its ups and downs. In comparison, loving someone has some of the same characteristics. When in love with someone, one might feel a wide range of emotions, such as anger, calmness, anxiety, tenderness, jealousy, or even despair. A roller coaster can be much compared to love, in that when you first get on the ride, you may feel many of the same emotions. For example, when someone first falls in love with someone there’s this anxiety of knowing whether or not, that the person you love feels the same way towards you.
Of all the treasures in the world, true love is of the most valued. They say that when you are truly in love, the universe around you simply stops, and no one else matters except you and your love. Love has the mesmerizing beauty of a stunning red rose, but it also has spiteful thorns surrounding it. But between friends and family, love can quickly go from black and white to shades of grey and can become fatal and suspenseful.
Love has many different meanings to different people. For a child, love is what he or she feels for his mommy and daddy. To teenage boy, love is what he should feel for his girlfriend of the moment, only because she says she loves him. But as we get older and "wiser," love becomes more and more confusing. Along with poets and philosophers, people have been trying to answer that age-old question for centuries: What is love?
Love is a feeling that cannot be defined in words. It’s an expression; an unsolicited expression. It is a feeling that comes in our heart in an unanticipated manner. It is indeed an expression which never follows the laws of nature. The passions seems to be inflated when someone happens to fall in love. Love is unpredictable, it cannot be justified, but can just be intensified.
