The song Rong Radio song by Benjamin Zephaniah was very interesting‚ and effective bringing up important issues that are all over the world‚ in very few words. I found this song interesting because it made me consider‚ how know matter where we live or who we are‚ we are still vulnerable to hear‚ see‚ read and write stereotypes and racism about ourselves and others. “I was beginning to believe that all black men are bad men.” -This shows us that sometimes when we are being influenced to believe

Social anxiety and ruminating in The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock I was very interested in investigating and understanding The Love Song of J.

"It’s not really about a blackbird whose wings are broken‚ you know‚ it’s a bit more symbolic” (Paul McCartney.)

My favorite historic song is the song cold war. The artist of the song is the rapper Lil B‚ the song is about basically african americans dying to try to impress others instead of being themselves.

My Meaningful Song Do you have a song that has a deeper meaning then just another song that comes on the radio? Well I believe that most everyone does one way or another. For me that song happens to be Bad Moon Rising by Credence Clearwater Revival. The reason behind this is when I was younger and before he passed away my grandpa used to play this song on the guitar and sing it to me all the time. I would like to give a little background on my grandfather. At least what I remember of him because

There are many gospel songs about life in the BC era but not many songs include both BC and present time. Most Gospel songs are about a relationship with God.
