    Analysis Of Koko Taylor

    Koko Taylor also known as “Queen of the Blues”. Koko Taylor is an extraordinary singer with a powerful voice and not afraid to sing what she wants. Known for her iconic 1965 hit ‘Wang Dang Doodle’, a line that really caught my attention was “We're gonna pitch a wang dang doodle all night long”, she’s expressing a very strong sexual feeling, which in my defense is a good way of expressing the song lyrics and vocals better. Even though Willie Dixon was the songwriter, and he was the one who meant them, she sang it in a way that makes the audience feel the emotions as she sang them. She must have also put in her own words to make it sound more like her.…

The purpose of the song was to show others that being homosexual is a part of the culture in today’s world. It is becoming more accepted, making it easier for people who are homosexual to tell others about it. Mary uses several devices to show others about homosexual identity. She uses examples from her personal religion, lyrics that portray how hard it is to come out, and portrays the shyness of a first date to show music listeners that homosexuality is as normal as heterosexuality.…

    The two poems I decided to pick for my comparison research paper this week are, “The Mother” and “This Is Just To Say.” I chose to pick “The Mother” because it was one that caught my attention from the first moment I started reading it. I also chose it because it is a common topic in the society today. I decided to pick “This Is Just To Say,” even though it was one of the shortest poems I ever read. I chose this poem because it is similar to the poem…

    Introduction In 1983, when Cyndi Lauper released “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” on her album She’s So Unusual, it garnered so much fame that it became one of the most well-known feminist anthems in the country. Several artists covered the song in subsequent years, and Lauper herself released a remastered version. However, few people are aware, even today, that the song is a cover version of Robert Hazard’s original demo, recorded in 1979 but never released officially (the demo is currently available on several media platforms, including YouTube).…

    She's commentating on the lack of rights women have traditionally had, and that despite the fact that we do now have "equal" rights, society still treats women as fragile, pretty creatures instead of as human citizens and people, and asserts that there are things we shouldn't be doing, be allowed to do, or are too weak to…

    The first two lines are repeated again in lines 83 and 84 further asserting on this fact. Elizabeth Dodd supports the example, as she wrote: “…she declares everything she has lost is due to his "arrogance" and "ruthlessness."” Another point worth mentioning in aspect to the theme is the slight wave of feminism, which roughly commenced around the same time as modernism. The example above supports the statement and the following further emphasises on it: “At least I have the flowers of myself, / and my thoughts, no god / can take that;” (125-127). It is interesting to note that she speaks of a god and not a goddess, implying the male dominance.…

    In each culture esteems, standards and ways of life separate. Nonetheless, there's one part of each general public that does not vary enormously, the significance of family.
