people should be given hope and motivation. The song that I’m going to analyze is the title song of the album by name “21st century breakdown” by Green day‚ released in 2009.

Elements of Music Project The two songs I am analyzing are by the same artist. The artist is DJ Shadow and the songs are entitled “Building Steam with a Grain of Salt” and “Midnight in a Perfect World.” These songs are from his first album “Endtroducing…‚” which was written in 1996.

Just like in the song Billy knows he can dance but is unsure and scared to reveal it to others because he doesn’t think boys can dance.

Regardless of our conclusions‚ our first impressions weigh heavily on our perception of a piece. My first response to The Love Song was one of curiosity
