I have never thought of a hero being just a regular person with a talent and a kind heart until I heard of Tyler Joseph from the band Twenty One Pilots. Whenever you have to make a choice, he says there will always be the easy route. That is the route that can give you what you want right away. But in the end, that’s the wrong choice.

Contemporary rock band Imagine Dragons sang the line “It’s a revolution, I suppose…” in their Grammy Award-winning song “Radioactive”. Surprisingly, Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson, the main character in the book The Titan’s Curse, can relate to this line, as well as the rest of the song. Although The Titan’s Curse is a fiction book based on Ancient Greek Mythology, it shares the same theme with Radioactive, a popular rock song. Both pieces of literature show the reader that you can you can overcome your obstacles if you are willing to do it. However, Riordan uses metaphors to convey this theme, while Imagine Dragons uses imagery to represent the same thing.…
Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness – solo project of Andrew McMahon of Something Corporate and Jack’s Mannequin fame – creates smooth, energetic pop rock on their latest release Zombies On Broadway. The album follows in the footsteps of McMahon’s eponymous debut, providing piano- and vocal-driven songs that showcase singer Andrew McMahon’s talents for music and lyricism. Although it starts slow, with tracks like the spoken/rapped “Brooklyn, You’re Killing Me” leaving the listener waiting for more, the album peaks in the center with vivacious lead single “Fire Escape”. It’s no wonder the song is at #15 on the alternative charts; it is full of life and liveliness that makes it catchy. However, the album as a whole does not mirror this feeling.…
Like actors Black people fell into the roles, placed on them by white slave owners, of Jezebels, studs, and savages. Tom Burrell’s Brainwashed Chapter 3: Sluts and Studs describe the sexual stereotypes and labels placed on Black people.

The media and songs that people produce and listen to in this day and age do not dispute this ideal.…

About a week ago Brother Caudle asked, and I use that term loosely because there really was no asking involved, me to give my Talk today on how the song that we just sang affected my life and how I am preparing to serve a mission. To be prepared for your mission you must have the simple things down. Things such as having a testimony of the church, which is the simplest thing yet also the most powerful and important. I feel this is one of the most major connections we can have to God so that when you become a missionary and begin to teach his children we can have the spirit to be with us, because even though the missionaries are the ones out there teaching they aren't teaching alone, but rather being guided by the spirit, making up for all…

The song has been a huge hit for years and is virtually known by every American under the age of thirty. When the song was released in 2003, I was just three years old, but had already adopted my dad’s love for music and I frequented the kitchen tile as my dance floor whenever music was playing. OutKast’s song “Hey Ya!” holds a different weight than most other songs I grew up around because it is one of few memories I remember vividly about my childhood.…
