The lost art of singer/song writing – is there a place for it in today’s pop music? In 2008‚ the British singer Adele sang “Make You Feel My Love”. The release charted at number 4 in the UK; and has little over 52 million views on Youtube. In 1997‚ Bob Dylan wrote a song named “Make You Feel My Love” which didn’t chart.

the characters‚ events and themes of Something Wicked This Way Comes. The book was written by Ray Bradbury and first published in 1962. From this novel‚ there has been a movie adaptation. It begins with “First of all‚ it was October‚ a rare month for boys.” The setting of this story is in October which explains use of the image of leaves. The lines represent a spider web‚ this is my interpretation of the book because everything in the story is linked. Something Wicked This Way Comes has a dark theme

WEEK FIVE- Lincoln and the Lost Cause Last week Lincoln was a patron saint‚ but in this week’s readings‚ anywhere from one to four decades after his assassination‚ the white southerners have denounced him a despot. Never before in our readings have we seen this view of Lincoln discussed‚ and it seems to me that they are blaming everything on Lincoln in order to scape goat all off the problems they had caused (did not want to admit they were at fault).

“Lost Ones” and Gendered Stereotypes Even though it is more inclusive than most hip-hop narratives‚ the portrayal of women in “Lost Ones” is still problematic. While the boyfriend begins his verse committed to collaborating with his girlfriend‚ as shown by the lines “Now I ain’t tryna pick a fight with you‚ I’m tryna talk‚” and the use of “we” in lines like “I feel like we ain’t ready for this…we still kids ourself/ How we gonna raise a kid by ourself?/ Handle biz by ourself?” A significant change
