The song “Glory” by Common and John Legend is one of the greatest and most influential songs you could listen to in this century. It appeals to emotion by relating current acts of racism to those of the civil rights movement. Common says “that’s why Rosa sat on the bus‚ that’s why we walk through Ferguson with our hands up.” He wants those who have had to endure similar experiences to know they are not alone and those who have not to understand the movement. This song reminds me everyday of experiences

“DONTTRUSTME” is an artistic masterpiece by pop duo 3OH!3. The song is about a girl who is labeled a “ho.” The majority of the definitions of the word “ho” are quite insulting and offensive‚ so for my analysis‚ I shall provide my own. A “ho” tends to be someone‚ a girl usually‚ who gets involved with many different guys with little to no commitment. This song is told from a guy’s perspective who meets a girl that he labels as a “ho‚” he proceeds to say that he cannot trust her because she knows what

Pina Collada Song By: Rupert Holmes I was tired of my lady‚ we’d been together too long. Like a worn-out recording‚ of a favorite song. So while she lay there sleeping‚ I read the paper in bed.

9. My Theme Song A theme song that I chose for myself was Some Things Never Change by Foesum. Whenever I play this song I usually feel two emotions: joy and sadness. The sadness comes from not being able to see friends from high school as much as I was used to. The joy comes from knowing although we do not see each other as much we will always be there for each other. This song was a part of my life growing up in high school‚ all my friends listened to the same genre of music called G-Funk. Whenever

life is dangerous. “Radioactive” also says it is about not giving up during this new life that you have started. The theme of a new life is shown throughout the song with literary devices such as metaphors‚ hyperbole‚ alliteration‚ and repetition. Firstly‚ Imagine Dragons keeps singing‚ “I’m radioactive‚ I’m radioactive” throughout the song which is called repetition. This lyric shows that they are unstable and are very crazy in the head. Secondly‚ the lyric‚ “I’m breaking in‚ shaping up‚ checking
