2006 songs

The song title is Counting Stars, and the artist is One Republic. I think the this part, “I-I-I-I feel something so right, doing the wrong thing, I-I-I-I feel something so wrong, doing the right thing,” the first section means that he knows he is doing the wrong thing, but he wants to do it anyway. The second section means that he doesn’t want to do the right thing, even though he knows he should. A second quote from the Counting Stars lyrics is, “Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep, dreaming

through this life, so excuse us while we sing to the sky.” The artist writes this in his third album Vessel. In this song called, “Screen,” he explains what is going on in his mind, in a way that only he can understand. Tyler Joseph acts as an artist/songwriter in the band Twenty One Pilots, with his best friend Josh Dun. With both members in the group being christian, many of his songs reference and contain messages about God. However, both Joseph and Dun explain that their reasoning for making music

Both the Song of Songs and Sappho’s love poems stem from the core concept of the overall intimacy and indescribable nature of love. Both reach to describe love by comparing to the beauty of nature and the underlying feelings presented by nature; however, the two differ in their specific context of love. The Song of Songs covers what would be today called the “honeymoon phase” where the love is sweet, perfect and what the world envisions, whereas Sappho takes the melancholic side of love, focused

Black Girl Magic Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, also known as Queen Bee, released her sixth studio album in 2016 and she still has the whole world buzzing about it. At first glance it seems like the album is centered on Jay-Z's infidelity as the accompanying film goes through the twelve chapters of grief one experiences after dealing with an unfaithful partner: intuition, denial, anger, apathy, emptiness, loss, accountability, reformation, forgiveness, resurrection, hope and redemption. However, upon further

‘Good Riddance’ by Green Day is my theme for my eighth grade year. This song was written by Billie Joe Armstrong for the album Nimrod in 1997. In the album recording of the song Billie messes up the opening chord progression twice before saying a quiet explicative and playing the song correctly. The first couple weeks were pretty rough for me and I often messed up or did things that I later regretted. This song is often played at graduations and weddings, but this was not the intention of Billie

The song “Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen” is a weird song, is it even a song? The way this song starts is just very questioning, making you think, if you really need rhythm in music. Having you think if you are just trying to state facts into things lyrics into a song. Well listening to the song there are some important advice in the music that really catch you when you his song. The first one that i have to say that really got to me would have to be the quote “Enjoy the power and beauty of

Sorry is about black female empowerment, and Beyoncé is not sorry. Beyoncé and director, Kahlil Joseph, made sure that this was unquestionable by featuring only black females in the video. The video explores black history using the visual iconography of the South, reflecting “the ‘double bind’ of racist and sexist oppression experienced by women of colour throughout America’s history” (1). The whole Lemonade album presents black female excellence, refuting the white male hero narrative that dominates

The song The Originators by The Jaz featuring Jay-Z is a very smart song that succeeds in having a commercial feel and surface appearance, but is also able to comment on very serious themes, that can often appear in hip-hop music. Although this song may seem very ordinary with its braggadocios rhymes typical of the era, through its use of language it almost inconspicuously continues the theme of black empowerment seen in many other songs, and serves as a black power anthem. It comments on and seeks

apparent. The guitar riff at the beginning sounds like a heartbeat close to dying – although this beat continues throughout the song, it picks up pace (in a similar fashion to Hill’s now fixed heart). The song acts as a break up venting session between Mary J. Blige and Hill and describes the after effects of her affair with Jean Wyclef (her former Fugees bandmate). The song is kind of vengeful, chronicling how good it feels to let go. Hill is crooning to her audience while seeking forgiveness for

Song Project In 2012 a song writer. producer, and musician, from Santa Cruz, California came out with the album I'm right here. On this album there was a song he wrote that changed his life, called “Young Homie.” Chris Rene performed this song for his X factor audition in 2011. The song used metaphors, similes, and allusions to enhance the message: To live life to the fullest. “Young Homie” uses metaphors to convey the artist’s message. “let the music heal like an overture” to compare music to healing
