In an interview Demi had with Music Times, she said “I’m not confirming and definitely not denying because all of my songs are based off of personal experiences. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with experimentation at all”. Cool for the Summer aids the situation because it made people to be comfortable with you they are. One of the lines in the song said, “Even if they judge, F*** it all, do the time” means that even though people are going to judge who you are, forget them and live your life.(Kornhaber, Spencer. "Demi Lovato’s ‘Cool for the Summer’: The Next Great Gay Anthem?" The Atlantic. Atlantic Media Company, 14 July 2015. Web. 13 Apr. 2016. This article is a summary of what her song is about and how she wants to be with a girl nobody should judge her. It's basically saying that no one should be judged on how they feel about someone even if it's same sex). The media says that Cool for the Summer is basically a remake of Katy Perry’s I Kissed A Girl but Demi Lovato isn’t about hiding who she is, she wants to be herself unlike Katy Perry.

Demi Lovato’s Cool for the Summer spoke to me because of how she put her beliefs in her own song that she wrote. She made people listen and hear that this is what she believes in. I just want our people and society to be more open to same sex marriage, what can they do now that it’s legal? Nothing because that’s what our government decided to do. I’m not saying to agree to it, just to be more open minded and treat people who are in a relationship with the same sex like human beings, like people and not animals because that’s who they want to be and we can’t change it. So before you think of judging someone, think about it if you were in their

    On the surface, one might not think that the great Italian opera La Traviata by Giuseppe Verdi and the acclaimed indie group Dinosaur Jr. have much in common. One concert, for instance, took place in an intimate performing arts center to an attentive and quietly reverent audience while the other in a loud, rough-and-tumble rock venue to a lively and informal audience. Indeed, there may appear to be no similarities between the effortlessly skilled classical stylings of the UNT College of Music and the deliberately ramshackle indie sound of Dinosaur Jr. However, with these two concerts, we see Christopher Small’s concept of “musicking” in full effect and, critically, two different forms of the same musical elitism.…

    Make Me Proud is a song created by Drake, featuring Nikki Minaj. The lyrics of this song can be analyzed through a feminist perspective. Drake begins the first verse by highlighting both positive and negative female characteristics in a provocative fashion. He continues with this approach throughout the song, contradicting the way that he celebrates women with opposing points of view, and then manipulates the song lyrics to also define those contradicting characteristics in a positive light. The sexual references are like lightning bolts throughout the song; rocking the world of the listener by enticing them with the controversy that woman can use sex for power.…

    Recognize what's going on, take a stand for yourself, and make the changes to better your world.' I believe that only through conscious effort and armed with knowledge can we make changes to how society thinks, a generation at a time. I wish more young women in the current generation could hear this song like I did, at the height of my becoming a knowledgeable young adult. I think it could help women in other countries, who are just now starting to shed the manacles of their societies and saying they are just as capable as men are. It should be one of the anthems of strong, young women like Malala Yousafzai as she fights for the rights of Muslim girls to go to school; or the young 11-year old Yemeni girl that ran away to escape an arranged marriage.…

    According to Floyd, “summertime” was the opening song written by George Gershwin for his folk opera porgy and Bess in 1935 which was an easy lullaby (218). Summertime was an aria and it is somewhat attributed to Ira Gershwin. The song became a well-liked hit and to a great extent recorded jazz standard and its lyrics written by Dubose Heyward who is the author of novel porgy. This song was been labeled as on the classics by many and to a large extent a xenophobic minstrel by others. Regardless of Gershwin’s good will, Floyd exemplifies that George’s work was contentious and was damned for its so-called orthodox representation of the black American life (219).…
