North Korea's Moranbong Band, My Heart

The scene would begin when Equality is in the house reading the books. The music would start playing when he found the word I. After he finds this unusual word. He then would start flipping through the pages, in a way freaking out. He then would grab book after book and one by one they would fall to the ground. This is happening because he recognizes something he has never seen before and that he is trying to understand but he cannot. This song fits well for this scene because it at first starts subtle and kind of relaxed. This part would fit well for when he is starting to glance at the book. Then as the music transitions into the concentrated part. It hits this high point that conveys a very distinct emotion. The song goes from this enjoyment and amazing energy to this strong emotion of rage and betrayal. This song and the way the scene has been set up fits together because Equality is experiencing the same emotions. He is feeling like he is on top of the world until he encounters this word. Additionally, he feels frustrated because he has found out the truth that has been kept from him his whole life. This song would bring out his emotions because it is exactly what he is

This song is a wakeup call for America to set a better example for the next generation. People are hurting other people. Some are paranoid of what will happen next. Life should not be scary, but there are people afraid to walk out and be among the chaos. Everybody is against one another, and they are not willing to compromise. “It’s time we stop” and look at what we are doing and what has become of us. There are wars for ignorant reasons, there are people hurting, there are innocent children watching, WAKE UP AMERICA! The riots and wars are not worth all of this pain and suffering.

The imagery in song lyrics is important when introducing a message; if one’s goal is to offer reflection to the listener. In “Don’t You Cry For Me”, Cobi achieves this through his mass use of metaphors, the extensive images of the tree and hanging are elements that are key in conveying his messages of fear, redemption, and injustice. This song directs listeners to stand up and not be afraid to fight for what they believe, in a way that can connect to them emotionally. The imagery in songs offers reflection into topics that are personal for each

The song begins immediately, with no intro of any sort. However, the first line, "Take out the papers and the trash" is sung a capella, before an instrumental of crashing drums, bass (I think, not sure quite what it is), and a saxophone. A piano also plays chords within the instrumental, filling space that that would otherwise be somewhat empty, although it is not at the forefront. The bass is also not extremely well defined, but it creates a dancelike feel to the song that adds more of a musical aspect of the song and is what a listener might subliminally bob their head to during the song. The lyrics are sung very loudly, almost as if the singers were shouting at the listeners. At 0:47, the bridge begins, marked by a jumpy and exciting saxophone solo that maintains the song's energy and intensity. During this solo, the bass, drums, and piano continue their beats. The song ends with a repetition of the song's title, "Yakety Yak" which could be considered a coda although it is really just an extension of the chorus. During some lines of the song, the instrumental cuts out, bringing front the already distinguished vocals. Lyrically, the song is pretty simple, with the lyrics being what a parent might tell a disobedient child. Structurally, the song is also very basic, with very little distinctness between the verse and the

In these songs, one can unearth the heart’s deepest desires—desires that are so basic, so undeniably human, that they cannot help but underscore the dehumanizing condition of slavery.

The song expresses how people are not living up to society's values and norms. It suggest that the socialization is at fault and that they contribute to improvement of self being. The song implies the way society goes against values and norms by one of the very first lyrics in the song. The lyric goes, “What’s wrong with the world, mama, People livin’ like they ain’t got no mamas…” (lines 1-2). This makes one aware of the lack of values in one's family. Values is the belief or an idea that a person or group has to determine is correct or not. Another verse of how the band shows one disobedience of the values and norms comes toward the middle of the song. “People killin', people dyin’, Children hurt and you hear them cryin, Can you practice what you preach, And would you turn the other cheek…” (lines 50-53). These verses show of society has failed to act stable and logical way that society once viewed as correct living. These actions show that citizens have not lived up to the expectations of society. Social norms are likes the laws of society. Laws are things that are illegal behaviour and norms are like behaving in a way society wouldn’t like. For example being in gangs, like the bloods, or the crips, or a big group that goes against society's norms like racial groups. An example of a racial group would be the KKK.

The song incorporates a slow-mid tempo, complex harmonies, appropriate use of legato and staccato, slightly swinging rhythm, warm and thin timbre, minimal vibrato, smooth melody, and a calm dynamic performance. The instrumentation of this song is composed of mainly R&B instruments such as: electric guitars, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, organ, electric pad, keyboard, strings, and a drum set with auxiliary percussion. The song is comprised of mostly minor notes and high pitches, making the vocals vary in range. The use of these musical elements makes the song delightful to listen.

Have you ever read a book such as The Hunger Games, Twilight, or Harry Potter, and thought it would be amazing to live in those imaginary worlds, where magic and fairy tale creatures exists? Actually, a society just like the one in Ayn Rand’s book Anthem actually does exist among us today, but it definitely not one full of fairy tale creatures or magic, and it is nothing close to the life anyone would want to live. Ayn Rand, a “supporter of rational and ethical egoism (the idea that we should do what we think is right for our own self-interest and not for others)” (page 3), wrote the novel Anthem to give people insight on what the world might turn out to be if the government continues to control more and more of our life. It tells a tale of a world completely controlled by the government, where people can’t be considered a person, but instead a part of a whole. Nobody has any independence, any free thought, but worst of all, nobody can leave. This harsh government can be seen in a country in our

I think about my dad, my uncles, my cousins, both grandfathers who fought in the Vietnam war. I think about how my grandfather paw paw Tim would ask me to sing this song for him every time I saw him and how he would make me turn the other way to sing it so he could just weep and cry as hard as he wanted because it meant so much to him. I think about all of our troops I got to visit with and spend time with in the Middle East when I went over seas to sing for them. I think about all of the men crying because they missed their wives so much, or the man telling me he hadn't seen his baby girl yet since she was born. When I sing this song I think about them. This song is about them. It's not about me. That's what I think about every time I sing it. I love our country so much. And we should all love and respect each other because this is the greatest country in the world. I see the love. I see the unity in all walks of life on a daily basis and It makes me so proud to be an American..... so In the words of Forrest Gump. That's all I have to say about

The author truley uses all rhetorical weapons at her disposal, though mor eimpressively (in some cases) are the vessels in which they are carried. Obviously pathos, and to be more emotionaly specific, sypathy is going to be a vital component in the conveying of a purpose that is to garner adult support of our nations students. But, what is found most impresive is th eway in which the author presents this early in the film using the soundtrack as a vessel through wich to carry pathos. The same song is used at the begining of the film as well as the end. The lyrics repeat, "Nobody knows me at all" This along with images of children who look overworked are shown to evoke feelings of sympathy and pit. Also signifigant is the decision to include this song at th ebegining to set the tone, but again at the end druign the call to action. This is done smartly to show that simply having watched the documentory

This song particularly is confusing in its general direction and message, but perhaps that is what makes it so tangible and why Weezer was so successful. It is relatable in that it is not an ethereal, untouchable piece of art, but still art in its’ own right, because Weezer plays it close to the vest by presenting the song more as a stream of consciousness; both jumbled and erratic; as opposed to a finely-tuned, edited entertainment

Both the song and this article talk about the loss we suffered in vietnam. The song mentions sending your kid away and having them come home in a box. The Article talks of how long the war was and how we suffered major losses. Both the article and the song talk of how the Vietnam war was not our fight, and we had no business being there. Both the article and the song are seemingly anti Vietnam.

Throughout all the anti-war protests and marches during the Vietnam War, it is interesting to note the changes in the music of that time. From the beginning of the war, where support and loyalty from Americans was present in songs, to the end of the war, where anger and distrust was evident in musical lyrics, American’s opinion changed about the war. This change in opinion was easily recognized by the altering of musical lyrics about the war when Americans grew tired of the constant sending of U.S. troops to Vietnam. The growing dissatisfaction with the Vietnam War led to increasing levels of anger and hostility in the popular music of the time.

The off-beat sequences of the electric guitar create a reggae feel for the song endorsing it to be mellow. Throughout the song, the electric guitar does not have any solos but variations of its sequence are repeated throughout the structure of the song. Doing so gives the lead singers’ message more priority. The domination of the classic drum kit creates a ‘head-bobbing’ motion for some when listening to this song, helping it become more popular and an easily enjoyable song.

As this song is originally written by him, it gave deep impact not just to my mind but to my heart too. Actually the singer of this song, Kim Jonghung passed away recently as he committed suicide due to the depression that he suffered for quite long time. After knowing about that news, I heard this song for one more time and I ended up crying like crazy for almost one hour and over. It is because the lyrics and melody of the song really deep and full of sorrow. Actually I am the one who not really cry just for a song or movie, but this is my first time having this experience. I just realized after his death that most the song that sang and written by him are related to his depression. It looks like he wanted to convey his feeling through the song as he such a cheerful guy in front of cameras. Unfortunately, most of his friend and fans did not realize that and he chose that ways to end up his depression and loneliness. This tragedy makes me noticed that we must always concern to people surroundings us as we do not know what is inside their
