Song Analysis: Moana By Dwayne Johnson
In the movie Moana, Dwayne Johnson sings, “You’re Welcome,” this song is about saying you’re welcome because he thinks that he is the ruler of all human and sea. “What can I say except you're welcome, For the tides, the sun, the sky” this demonstrates how he is reminding us of all the great things he thought he did even though in reality it was a failure. The songwriter does a great job of describing all of the beautiful colors, surrounding, sound of the ocean and island. This helps us to visualize what he is feeling about his supposed accomplishments making them seem more real by painting a picture in our minds. The main idea of this song is about expressing gratitude it is expected to say you’re welcome in response when someone has

    Ryan Lewis, And Leon Bridges: Song Analysis

    The song “Kevin by Macklemore, Ryan Lewis, and Leon Bridges, was in my opinion incredibly gloomy. First finding out that Kevin and Macklemore where drug addict was the first shocker. The song, per se did not declare Macklemore as an addict, but the context in the song told otherwise. Also it was sad finding out that Kevin died from overdose most likely, while Macklemore is still alive to see a friend die and from the song this was not the first or last death of a friend he would see. Now with friends that were with him dying from most likely drug abuse, Macklemore created for those who have a drug addiction so one could suffer the same pain he is feeling.…

    Song Analysis: Bailando

    I wanna be contigo, and live contigo, and dance contigo, para have contigo, una noche loca”. This is the chorus to Enrique Iglesias’ billboard hit, Bailando. If you listen to the song you can hear the rhythm of reggae, hip hop, Spanish flamenco, reggaeton among a cacophony of other sound. I hear beauty, see color and feel joy when I listen to this song. The success of this song according to Gary Trust, associate director of charts is due to “the fact that a quarter of this country’s youths are Latino. He comments that the market is so diverse that Latino artists don’t have to pick just one language or two.…

    Twenty One Pilots: Song Analysis

    Twenty One Pilots is an alternative/indie band made up of two members, Joseph and Josh Dunn. They are known to occasionally rap and include specific tempos and beats that correspond with each song’s thought provoking lyrics. In the song “Oh. Ms. Believer” by Twenty One Pilots they use the analogy of snow to describe a young girl going through depression. The band accurately describes the feeling of being trapped inside one's mind as they go through the hardships of this mental illness. Although at first this song may be interpreted as another cliché alternative hit, the meanings hidden beneath the lyrics are sure to tug at the listener's heart strings as he/she looks through the eyes of someone who struggles with a loved one who is depressed.…

    Se Quay Song Analyse

    I enjoy listening to this song anyways as it is in my native language and one of my top childhood songs. The song is about a couple who is in love with each other but when the guy has to leave for the US, they broke up. He later returns and the love is still there. This is a very cute story and I love singing the lyrics that describes his feelings for her as he was away. If I broke up and get back together with my boyfriend, I would want this to be our scenario, that we broke up and got back together because of distance or circumstances, not because we wanted this. I also love how there are english lyrics sung with deep emotion in the song: “I will be back for you.” The music video for the song is also very heartwarming and brings a smile to my face whenever I think of it. If I got back together with my ex, I could listen to this song to remind me of my feelings for him. This song is a great song that evokes strong emotions from me and makes me think about love and how strong it is to overcome lots.…

    The Breakfast Club Song Analysis

    The breakfast club has one of the most unique and memorable soundtracks of all time. Something that made the movie gave it such a memorable track and the movies “theme song”, "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by the band Simple minds. Something that the movie did that not none to many movies had done at that point. They used this song twice, once at the beginning at once at the end. The two times this song is played in this movie, each function is shown. It shows genre because the movie was release in 1985 and this is around the time new wave music (the song’s genre) became popular. It sets the mood both at the beginning and at the end of the movie. It sets mood at the beginning because of the tempo and rhythm makes…

    Imagine Dragons Song Analysis Essay

    After I annotated this song and actually looked into what the lyrics were saying I learned that not everyone is who you think they are. For instance, you hide a lot of things from people not because you want to ,but because you don’t know how to tell them or maybe you’re afraid of what they will think of you. In the song ‘Demons’ by Imagine Dragons the singer says,”I wanna hide the truth’(Imagine dragons line 8 box 3) ,but then he says,” don’t want to hide the truth.”( Imagine Dragons line 35 box 8) I think that he is having mixed feelings what he should do. He is afraid that if he tells you that you may leave him or you won’t look at him the same way ever again.…

    Be Good Little Migrant Analysis

    Types of language are also a big part of ‘Be Good, Little Migrants’, the composer used first person point of view with an inclusive language by using the words ‘we, us and our’, for example “We’ve saved you from starvation”, line two stanza one. Even though it is written in first person from the migrant’s point of view as in sarcastic to the government of the land she live in. This impact on migrant experience which could be related to the audience experience. Imperative language also played a substantial part in the first stanza, “Just display your gratitude but don’t be heard, don’t be seen.” The word gratitude gives out a strong impact on the quality o being thankful parallel to the quality of command that were…

    Analyzing Beyoncé's Song 'Flawless'

    I picked this song ‘Flawless’ By Beyoncé. In this song it has many different feministic views. There is a part in song which is by Chimamanda Adichie (“We Should all be Feminists”) which she is explaining what feminism is in our society. Also at the beginning she has a part form her song ‘Bow Down’ which can raise a few eyebrows on how Beyoncé feels about other women. Then she has another part in the song explain the different roles that she has learned from her family and how as women the way that we are we are all ‘flawless’ in our own way. Not necessarily saying that us as women there is nothing wrong with us. This is a perfect song for a young woman to hear, something that we can learn from in a way that most young adults relate…

    That Black Snake Moan Analysis

    “That Black Snake Moan” by Blind Lemon Jefferson is a perfect example of a song that was used to ‘escape,’ in a way, from life instead of focusing on issues prevalent during that time. This time was very hard for everyone, but instead of singing about these troubles, they turned to the blues with their explicit lyrics as shown in Blind Lemon Jefferson’s singing of romance. I think that they might have done this because no one wants to focus on the hard things about life all the time. These songs could have been an outlet from everyday life for them. While they might not have felt that they could do much more about the racism and poor financial situation across the country, they could find relief through music. This is similar to today where…

    Song without Words Analysis

    Lieder ohne Worte (Song without Words) is written by the Romantic composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. It is a collection of forty-eight short lyrical piano pieces of markedly song-like character that he wrote at various periods of his life between 1809 and 1847. They are well suited to the study of musical form because of their artistic value. Op. 19b, No. 1 Andante con moto in E major was written in 1830 and is the first in the collection. The piece is in the key of E major and modulates from E to B to G major.…
