    Dilday, K.A. “ Go back to Black.” New York Times Publishing, 2008: 515-516. Dilday suggests that it is time for us to retire the term “ African- American”, and consider everyone who is Black as family. Dilday gives examples of those who consider themselves African American like those who are caribbean, moroccan and uses Barack obama as an example to show how they all are one and not inclusive. Dildays purpose is to show how the term African American should be replaced as Black, in order to show that everyone who was derived as Black is welcome and not just “ African Americans”. Go back to Black contains tremendous commentary, which introduces the idea to those of color that African American is just a term that set boundaries for those of particular descendent, yet saying Black would classify them all as descending from one common ancestor.…

    While many songs explore the themes of love and heartbreak, “Back to Black” by Amy Winehouse presents a unique perspective on the inner turmoil that may engulf individuals in the aftermath of a break-up. The speaker discusses their relapse into depression and substance abuse after the dissolution of their relationship, providing insight into the intimate, and often undisclosed adversities experienced. I argue that this effect is achieved through the creation of a speaker that evolves and…

    Kathryn Kalinak also argued that the use of music that has already been released in the past, for example Beyonce and Andre 3000's updated version of Amy Winehouse's classic 'Back to Black' may, 'trail with them personal histories and trigger memories, experiences and emotions, which may be at odds with [a] film's dramatic needs' (2010: 87), e.g. the viewer thinks of the late Amy Winehouse's death rather than concentrates on the film. This being said could be a possibility, although this opinion…

    The sixth song is called “Back in Black” this song starts with the dumber taping the symbols as the melody starts and one of the most famous guitar riffs comes blazing, as this fast pace song gives you a rush of adrenaline. Lyrically is hard to fallow as it sounds like rap and some of the lyrics are hard to understand but what I understand it is about getting back in the rock and roll party life. The seventh song is called “You Shook Me All Night Long” song starts with a guitar melody as it…

    Now barefoot does have many pros to it, and I want to make sure I acknowledge them. If your horse is kept barefoot you will definitely save a large chunk of money over time.
