Linda Perry's Song Analysis
Linda Perry wrote this song that Christina Aguilera sang. One of the verses that stands out the most, “I am beautiful in every single way, words can’t keep me down” is a positive affirmation relating to many people who have been bullied and are now dealing with their own insecurities. Many times, when someone is tormented and tease from their peers, family members or even friends that person may forget their beauty that lies within them. “No matter what we do, no matter what we say, we’re the song inside the tune, full of mistakes” Relating to my research paper, many people who have a disease or disabilities, often face many types of discrimination that lead to low self-esteem. Even though, Henrietta’s daughter could not speak, she dealt with

    The song “Thinkin ‘Bout You” by Frank Ocean pertains deeply to how he feels about Jane Gallagher. For an example, Holden persistently calls Jane his friend, but never tells the reader how he really feels about her. He says, “...We'd get into a goddam movie or something, and right away we'd start holding hands, and we wouldn't quit till the movie was over. And without changing the position or making a big deal out of it. You never even worried, with Jane, whether your hand was sweaty or not. All you knew was, you were happy. You really were.” Salinger 80). Holden’s feelings for Jane shine through from his personality in his little confession in his mind.

    In 1979, The Knack performed one of their hit singles “My Sharona” in front of a packed house. This song represented the alternative/pop rock genre, and was considered a major hit in the late 1970s.

This essay will first describe a variety of important musical characteristics that are displayed within the performance. Next, it will discuss how this song was a launchpad for a future song that became just as popular a few years later. Lastly, before providing my own personal critique, I will discuss how the song assisted The Knack with getting back together nearly 20…

    Among all the justice related issues both Audre Lorde, author of “Sister Outsider,” and Alike, the protagonist from the movie Pariah address issues regarding sexual discrimination and racism. Both of these women are black, lesbian, females who operate as every other person but are seen as different due to their sexual orientation. Lorde expresses herself as being classified by others as deviant, inferior, or just plain wrong because she is lesbian (Pg. 114). Alike, as well as Lorde, endured the same dehumanizing language used against her by not only strangers but her own mother. All of this to show how similar and prevalent these women’s experiences still occur in the 21st century. Whether it be recognizing the issues of racism against blacks,…

    Elaine MacKay stood out like a sore thumb in the midst of the manicured nails of Phillips Academy. Short, overweight, with a flat face that only a mother could love. Elaine held herself high with pride as the only student at Phillips to have Down Syndrome. The rest of us avoided her. Why would I, a member of one of the most popular cliques in the school, ever stoop down to her level? She had created her own level of the food chain, one that many of my fellow classmates called the ‘Retard Zone’, but was nearly indifferent to the levels above her. She tried to befriend everyone she came into contact to, which I assumed was to make herself feel better. But to my surprise and disbelief, she would successfully change my point of view on her strange ways, and in a way I never expected.…
