Dear Holden Caulfield,
I have taken the liberty in writing you this letter. I have created a mixed tape of ten songs that I thing you would like. I hope that you can connect with what these songs are talking about and you love this mixed tape.
First we have Demons by Imagine Dragons. I picked this song because, as the title states, your inner demons. “Your eyes, they shine so bright. I wanna save that light. I can’t escape this now, unless you show me how.”
Second I have chosen A World Alone by Lorde. I put this song on this CD because it talks about all the phonies in the world, and I know how much you love your phonies… “Let ‘em talk ‘cause we’re dancing in this world alone, world alone, we’re all alone.”
The third is Hey Brother by Avicii. I put this song on the CD because it’s all about being there for your siblings and having each other backs. “Oh, if the sky comes falling down for you. There’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do.” Throughout the book “Catcher in the Rye” you show that you would do anything for your siblings. Even with Allie being the golden child, were most people would be jealous of Allie, you encouraged him to do his beat. You were devastated when he died and I truly believe you haven’t gotten over it. “Know that water’s sweet but blood is thicker.”
The fourth is Little Bird by Ed Sheeran. I picked this song for you because it shows you that they are things that you can’t save. You sometimes just need to walk away and let them fix it their selves. “And you make me scream, but then I made you cry when I left that little bird with its broken leg to die.”
The fifth song I picked is Your and Beautiful by Lana Del Rey. I chose this song because it’s all about being vulnerable. “Will you still love me, when I'm no longer young and beautiful? Will you still love me, when I got nothing but my aching soul?” These lyrics display how vulnerable she is. It makes you think what will happen in
