'Unrequited Love' By Kurt Flick: Song Analysis
The song was originally sang by Kurt Flick and though the song is in Cebuano dialect you’ll get the gist by watching the music video. I on the other hand fall in love with Kaye Cal’s version. Yeah, my Cebuano is very limited but the melody alone and Kaye Cal’s soothing voice takes me into a trance where words and meaning becomes irrelevant. It has that calming yet melancholic effect. Her song has that effect on me, like a blanket of cloud hovering, makes me feel quixotic and emotional.

The human mind attaches many senses and feelings to melodies; they are tied to moments in life. Everyone feels the same emotions even though people are all different and unique. Songs are written about all sorts of feelings such as happiness, sadness, angriness, and sorrow. For example, if a person is having a bad day he can find a song relating to how he is feeling.

    Love Does By Bob Goff: Analysis

    Love Does is a book written about the whimsical and enthralling life of Bob Goff and his discovery of a secretly incredible life in an ordinary world. His life is very different than the everyday christian because he follows what God wants rather than the world, no matter his opinion. He changes the idea of love from a thought or feeling into an action. He lives by the idea that, if Jesus would do it, he should do it, no matter how far out of his comfort zone it may be. His life has impacted many people because it has been fueled by love, not works. Love in action turns each day into a meaningful chance to make faith simple and real. The lessons Goff illustrates…

Renee and Rob both met there in a bar named the ‘Eastern Standard’ both at the age of twenty-three. He initially planned to keep his relationship to Charlottesville strictly one of host and guest. Both he and Renee didn’t really favor Charlottesville. Then life had another plan for Rob and it was to fall in love.

    This Kiss Song Analysis

    There are wires growing out of everyone’s ears. That is, to listen to music. Music is an infinite source, whether that source is for lifting up spirits, expressing underlying pain and anger, or just merely a distraction. Music from well-developed Broadway musicals to a series of beats at a party, it is something we all have done: listen to music. Some even say that music defines us but it that really true? Is our music the soundtrack of who we each are? Do what we listen to support our core values in life? To answer this I sought out the one song I listened to most, “This Kiss” by Alex Days and Carrie Hope Fletcher, and interpreted its lyrics to see if it matched with my core values of commitment, happiness, and love.…

His statement or beliefs are strongly connected to the flaws or society. he starts out naming a problem but then shows the hopeful solution such as "when the last thing we notice is the color or skin, and the first thing we look for is the beauty within." This gives a type of persuasion where it makes the reader believe the solutions to these problems are there and can be done.…
