Phoebe Bridgers 'Stranger In The Alps' Analysis

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 song implements on the hardships a mother will face for the growth of their son because love is what keeps them going. The love a mother will have for her son means that even though they don’t have a father figure around to show them how to grow up, they will always have their mothers to teach them the way of life through a woman’s perspective. In the song, “Dear Mama”, Tupac mentions, “For a woman it ain’t easy trying to raise a man, you always was committed” and he is able to foreshadow the hardships his mother had to face while Tupac was growing up without a father. At the age of seventeen Tupac, was always caught up in drama with his mom. Since Tupac was young he got involved into the hustle and was left in the streets where he basically had to risk he life every day. He never realized that being pushed into the streets would make him think about his mother or even worry about her. Tupac reflects upon the behavior he had during the time and how much stress he would add on his mother’s shoulders, but little did he know that his mother would be there for him regardless. Tupac Shakur’s mom was committed to his son and no matter the troubles he caused and faced she would be there for him to either help him out or at least hear him when he was not feeling good. She was a single mother on welfare, but she always tried

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.

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

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

In the Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger, Phoebe, despite not appearing in the book as often as other characters, serves as the confidante for Holden in order to bring out his true character and reveal his true emotions and thoughts. She brings out his emotions of depressed thoughts, guilt, happiness, and how he values authenticity.

My name is Ali Alansari, and the reason why I chose this song is because I always used to like this song since I was a child and now I really want to know the real meanings towards this song. Michael Jackson wrote thriller. This song was written in 1984, and zombies represent fears in the American consciousness. Also in that time, there was the great recession, which included poor communities, unemployment, AIDS crisis and racial polarization. The fact that this song was for terrorizing the neighborhood, it allows the audience to imagine connections for social and political issues. In this text, it is about Michael Jackson

Throughout the 18 short pieces of the album, each one enveloped by a specific genre and mood, the band alternates between adventurous and prevailing approaches.

“Don’t tread on me.” A driving statement engrained in the United States since the nation’s forefathers; now commonly used by many conservative Republicans, especially Tea Party members. Janice Areno is no exception. Raised in Lake Charles, Louisiana, Janice Areno strives to be a diligent worker to ensure the government has no chance to tread on her. In her book Strangers in Their Own Land, Arlie Hochschild discusses Areno’s opinions on the government to which she believes should be very limited. As a dedicated, religious woman who never relies on the government for anything, Janice Areno praises big business and removed government, but her views bring about problems that sometimes lack a feasible solution.

This song represents the feeling of emptiness throughout life. Through all of Kurt Cobain's life, it was mostly empty. People are searching for the theme, and that can be found in the lyrics, “With the lights out, it's less dangerous, / Here we are now; entertain us, / I feel stupid and contagious” (Nirvana). It is said that these lyrics show the security and satisfaction after shooting up with heroin. The idea of drugs and sex is messed up but nothing can entertain a group of young teens. People are trying to introduce this idea of heroin as an idea that is better than sex, which is almost all that someone can say after shooting up too many times. Charlie soon finds the lifestyle inside highschool of drug parties, drama, and nighttime adventures. Charlie is dipped into the 90s music era and this helps cope with problems that may occur later throughout the

The song mainly uses metaphors. However there are a few personifications. The first metaphor is “one day I’ll leave you, a phantom to lead you in the summer to join the black parade.” Phantom is referring to his dad’s ghost, the “black parade” refers to either the walk the family does to the funeral or memorial day. Then we found the metaphor “ my heart can’t contain it, the anthem won’t explain it” means that the grief of the loss is so much that it’s

The fourth track is “Social Disease”, which was written by Richie Sambora and Jon Bon Jovi. This up tempo song has guitar riffs and the drums and keyboard arrangements make for an awesome listening experience. Sometimes it is hard to tell if the sound is coming from the guitar or from the keyboards, but the layering of sounds makes this a true rock song. After the final verse/chorus, the instruments keeping playing, the chorus is repeated, and then an outro is performed by the instruments to end the song.

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.
