Song of Myself

Sarah Vaughan meant by “When I sing, trouble can sit right on my shoulder and I don't even notice." she means singing lets her release her stress. With the worst things in life staring her right in her face, as long as she singing, she can't even notice it. Singing is Vaughan's escape from her worries. Singing is the passport to freedom from trouble. When Vaughn is singing, all the troubles in the her world are nonexistent. In 5th grade I was really stressed about Miss.Murphy’s math class because

If I could spend 14 Tuesdays with anyone, it would be Nina Simone. Not only was Ms. Simone a remarkable singer, but she was a classical pianist as well. Her songs flow with a rhythm only the best can play. Many of her songs have become jazz standards today, and her original song , “Alabama Goddam,” became an important song for the Civil Rights Movement. Nina Simone released over 40 original albums in her lifetime, each receiving critical acclaim. I love her style, poise, and ability to hit the really

day. “Rockstar” was written as a fiction film with a few real life events thrown into the mix. Many people don’t view a dramatic comedy to have an emotional effect on them the way this movie did. The movie touched many young aspiring musicians like myself to go above and beyond to achieve your dreams. I have never once watched a film and said “I’m going to do that” or “That is going to be me one day.” The movie “Rockstar” is my most cherished film of all time. The film reaches out to me in a sentimental

most exciting memories I hold on to are often accompanied by a country song, whether it be playing in the background, or roaring over the speakers. Songs are written for people to feel and relate to the emotion the songwriter and singer put behind the lyrics. Growing up having my dad be my role model and most influential person in my life, I often find myself in things that remind me of him or our memories, along with songs that describe a girl who is fearless and lives on the edge at times, as

To go with each song, I want to include a visual for each track. For the full EP, I want the cover art to be extremely simple. Just A black or Grey background with the text “The Me Without You.” This is to reflect the opaque idea of the EP, which is not knowing who you are. But For each song, I will create its own individual cover art and/or then a small video to go along with it, and along with the music

While listening to this song, I feel the pain the slaves had to endure. I also feel both their sadness and their strength they had to have in order to not give up. Finally, I feel the desire they had to be free. This song makes me think about the struggles that some people have to go through today just to be treated fairly. It likewise reminded me of the times that I myself struggle with things that no one else seems to understand. The Holocaust is an event that is similar to slavery. During

great human creature Phora. It was about four years ago. I remember being on snapchat when I was viewing my cousins snapchat story when I heard a song of his. It was “I Think I love You” The only part i was able to listen to was “Why does every love song remind me of you why can’t I make up my mind and decide what to do i’m trying to write these songs but I always end up writing about you, I think I love you.” I fell completely in love with that verse. I finally had the gut to ask my cousin who

occurred in your life then a song begins to sing perfectly with what is going on in your situation? I feel like this has happened often to many people. Being almost eighteen years old, throughout my life there have had plenty of experiences that match perfectly with songs. I like to compare it to a soundtrack of my life. As an example, a soundtrack that I relate to my life is ¨One thousand miles¨ by Vanessa Carlton. The specific verse that relates my life to this song is ¨You know I'd walk a thousand

tempo to a peaceful and dream like piano sound and grave tempo. As the music continues to come in the lights continue to brighten on stage as well as if the music and lights are tied together. As the cast came out they performed the opening song during this song they harmonized really well. In Scene One the audience is introduced to the Baron and Baroness of Westphalia, Baron Thunder-ton-Tronck and Baroness; the Baron is a baritone, his voice is low but not low enough to be a bass; the Baroness is

applying for, President, Vice President, or Secretary/Treasurer? The position I am applying for is ASB Secretary/Treasurer. 2. Why do you want to be a class officer? Be honest. Being a class officer allows me to help others as well as to improve myself. Most of all, I believe I’ll find a lot of fun through it. I love managing things, from money to plans, my parents can say that those are the things that I would jump to my feet to take into task. Hence, being an ASB Secretary/Treasurer, I can bring
