Astonishing is my best words to describe the initial impression of the wonderful piece that Exhibition, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, performed throughout the video. The work of art composed by George Solti was amazing. I found the orchestral sounds far more beautiful, strings much more engaged musically. This piece has its differences in many areas of the song, but it doesn’t compare to other music heard. The piano played throughout the piece was like music to my ears. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra is very well known for its classics, and has been in the music industries for over a decade. When the composer was creating this piece, his intensions were to bring his work to a vivid experience in my point of view. The instrumentation used, and…
I think the lyrics and the music combined with Bono's voice make this song reach home. He sings the song with loads of passion and he sounds a bit upset. This tells the audience that he cares…
I fell in love with the song the first day I heard it, and when it was nominated for the Grammy’s my fingers were crossed. I am a fan of Tyrese, although I love the song ‘Shame” but first time I heard it I was not that into the song compared from the Tyrese back in the days. It took me a while before I could like the song. Jazmine Suilivan, no!! I don’t like her songs, I compare her with Melanie Fiona, they mostly sing sad songs about break up, so I am still wondering why she was nominated for a Grammy because “let it burn” had nothing special about it. I mostly listen to R&B songs from the 8o’s 90’s and early 2000’s, and D’angelo started his career in the early 90’s but I have never listened to his song from start to finish. I always skip. I don’t like his voice, when he won the Grammy I was only excited that a guy from the early 90’s can still come back and win a Grammy; otherwise I was expecting Miguel to…
I chose the song Whatever it Takes by Imagine Dragons to describe my 8th-grade career because it describes my experiences in both the specific lyrics and the overall message of the song. The overall message of the song is that hard work is required to do well in life. This certainly describes my 8th-grade career, as it has taken a large amount of effort in order to do well in all my classes, while still balancing a social life. The overall message of this song relates to my 8th-grade career because maintaining satisfactory grades and doing well in my classes has taken a large amount of hard work and effort, and it has also required my unflagging attention.…
I agree with the message being conveyed in this cartoon. As a student, I am a witness to acts of bullying almost every day. It is said that every 1 in 7 Students in Grades K-12 is either a bully or a victim of bullying. Bullying is an escalating issue that is often overlooked by most adults and other children. Many so-called ‘bullies’ don’t realize what they’re doing is cruel, and hurts. I and likely many others believe that, if enough awareness is raised about bullying, the issue may be able to be put to rest. Children should not have to feel the need to hide from those that should be nothing but kind to them.…
Sophisticated audiences may find themselves in the song. It brings out fervor, especially for people who have been living in love. Marilyn Bergman uses simple words, but it is very touching and emotive. Basically, it is a classical song which was played by symphony orchestras and performed by Barbra Streisand. By just looking at the lyrics, one would feel the sentimental soul and an introspective mind of a sensitive woman. In the first line of the song, she writes “Memories, light the corners of my mind. Misty watercolor memories of the way we were.” These memories have been engraved in her heart; they are neither gloomy nor euphoric, but they are vivid images which she wants to repress in the most innermost sphere of her mind. It is not just something very hurtful; it is not blissful to think of either. Her feeling is a mixture of nostalgia, melancholy, and a little bit of regret that is rushing through her body. Former familiar scenes were depicted in her mind, but, somehow, they are both painted with watercolor and blurred, symbolizing a mystical ethereal world that solely exists in her imagination and belongs to her…
This video reveals disturbing snapshots of industrialization, pollution, drought, poverty, desperation, and disaster created by humans and how it might effect the future. I think the video and the actual song lyrics are more related to eachother in this piece. Togethe, the overall purpose is supported compared to "World on Fire," where the video sent a differing message than the lyrics. Nonetheless, all were very effective.…
The song that makes me feel as though it was written about me, for me, is Harsh Realms by Tom Gable of Against Me! Every line in this masterpiece of acoustic punk speaks to me. The song is about being forced into adulthood whether you are ready or not. He talks about how every decision you make shapes your future, and makes you question what you will do with your life. The song is short, it consist of verse one, verse 2, and a chorus.…
This song was used at various protests and marches in the civil rights movement. It was used to motivate and inspire the youth of the generation. It not only inspired those that agreed with the cause but it drew attention to many that weren’t informed of the issues. In drawing attention the cause gained more followers, so not only did people feel connected to this song but it actually helped change America.…
The song at first sounds like a regular song, you’re either bored because of how long it is or entertained. Overtime you start to appreciate it and it’s entirety, yes it’s emotional but it’s a dope song and the 12 mins just fly by.…
really defines a part of my childhood. The lyrics relate to the times when all of the kids on my block would hang out together everyday for hours at a time. Whether it was playing with sidewalk chalk, rolling down steep hills, until hives would appear on our stomachs, eating grass at the park, seeing who could find the biggest dandelion, or even just laying in the grass for hours naming the different shapes we saw in the clouds, we all had a reason to “love the today” we were in and love it anyway we wanted to. Everyone has had those certain on going fears when they were younger. As a child I was deathly scared of monsters. I…
Throughout everyone’s lives, people will find songs that remind them of special events, people, or things. High school, for me, was full of struggles and many lessons. Within the past four years I found songs that reminded me of important occurences. Some of these songs I never had expected to relate to until I sat and wrapped my head around the true meaning of its lyrics. Time, as everyone suggested, did fly by.…
I can’t express enough how much bullying affects me in a way that makes me so mad. Everyone lets their guard down so easily that they are an easy target for bullies to strike at. I can't stand when they are too depressed to stand up to their bully that they just let it happen.…
I have chosen two songs that apply to my life right now. The main theme of the “soundtrack of my life” is overcoming obstacles and changing things that are essential to the growth and the perseverance of an individual. John Legend’s song “If your out there” has made an impact on me. When I first heard the song I immediately fell in love with it. This song made me feel empowered in a sense and I felt inspired to go out, make a difference and do something great.…
