In today’s culture, people are not subjected to music with a real meaning anymore, usually money, fame, breakups, and sex, is what you’ll find playing on the radio.

In 1991 when Eddie Vedder wrote and performed his album Ten, he knew he was competing with the big time grunge band; Nirvana. Once it hit the stage it was clear there was no competition. Eddie’s deep, emotional messages throughout this album, his shaky, raspy voice that transfers from screaming lyrics to soft, poetic like speaking. All tied together with his hard to hate persona that can be heard throughout this album and every album made by Eddie Vedder.

Hello Yulissa, I actually remember watching the Brave New Voices poetry slams that my teacher made us watch when I was in high school and I always liked the strong messages they put in their poetry slam, especially “Somewhere in America”. I definitely agree that feminism follows Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs when it comes to physiological needs esteem, belonging, and love. I thought that your response was clear and very well written. I definitely agree with you that you need learn about the audience in order to catch their attention. Great

This song has SO much meaning behind it that I don't even know where to start.. I'll do the best I can though. I was age 4 or 5 and my grandmother, mother, and I was going to Daytona Beach, Florida for vacation. There was a cassette tape that came with my grandmother's new car. I played that tape the whole way to Daytona Beach, Florida. My point about this song is my mother stayed out in the sun at the hotel/resort while my grandmother and I went shopping in St. Augustine at the outlet mall. On the way back to the hotel/resort this song played on that cassette tape and there was a hair brush close to me, so I grabbed it and went to singing "How could I throw away a miracle?

The Weeknd is a newer artist that has an exceptionally diverse sound. So many emotions are infused with his lyrics and portrayal of the lyrics. Many people, male or female, ejoy his laidback aproach to an emotional subject, the subject of money and fame.

Lyrical Ballads were written in a time of great change. They were dominated by the French Revolution and both Wordsworth and Coleridge felt great impact from this.

The introduction of the Poor Laws meant that landowners paid their remaining staff very little knowing that they would be supplemented by poor relief. However the conditions stated by the Laws before aid would be given were very

"Hey There Delilah," by the Plain White T's, is a touching story about a woman's admirer that wishes to see her again and promises to go to her no matter how perilous or painstaking the circumstances may be. To begin, the artist uses a specific diacope over and over in order to express his love for the girl he is singing about, Delilah. He constantly repeats in the chorus, “Oh it’s what you do to me” (Plain White T’s, line 15-19). The repetition of this diacope makes the song more endearing and shows how much the singer truly cares about this girl. Next, the author of the song portrays a simile when he says with longing and admiration in his voice, "Times Square can't shine as bright as you."

Twenty one pilots is the first best band because the lead singer was in severe depression and so he sang about it and he thought he would never make it but and they did.

After listening to the song, I believe the purpose of the song was to reach out to people in hope that they would want to fix the world they were living in. I believe John Mayer is trying to give people that extra push to get up and do something useful. “Now we see everything that’s going wrong, With the world and those who lead it, We just feel like we don’t have the means, To rise above and beat it” (Lines 5-8). John is trying to reach out to people and make them realize that everyone has a place in the things going on around them. He want’s our generation to realize that with the help of each other and we can rise up and make changes around the world. The song is meant to be persuading to the younger generations telling them they should
