I chose Gold Dust by Banners because I felt that the mood of the poem had a literary crescendo. First it starts off with suggestions and theories but by the last stanza, the song offers hope and resolution. I paired Suggestion with Gold Dust because the song starts off slow and timid but progressively gets louder and heavier on the listener. In addition, the lyrics of Gold Dust are relatively similar to the poem Suggestion. The lyrics from the beginning of the song are suggestive and questioning, while hopeful by the end of the song and chorus.
I chose Oxygen by Catfish and the Bottlemen because of the countless similarities between the song and Brainne Carpenter’s IV. In Oxygen, the singer and his significant other are in a fitful relationship where she leaves often. He accepts …show more content…
Although, he also comments on the ups and downs of their relationship because of her frequent leaving. This is relatable to IV., because the poet’s significant other leaves and he expresses his anger towards her independency. While reading IV, I felt that the song needed to be upbeat yet lyrically gloomy because the mood was freeing but had a disconsolate. This matches Oxygen’s rhythm and accusing lyrics. I chose Real Love for Fourth or Fifth Love because I felt that it fits the poem almost perfectly. As Fourth or Fifth Love talk about the simplicity and freeing feeling of loving someone, Real Love builds upon these ideals with “little things” that many people believe to be what makes love incredible. Fourth or Fifth Love talks about the brief moments that mean a lot to the poet and this is reciprocated in Real Love. While reading Fourth or Fifth Love I felt lighthearted and reminiscent. I felt that Real Love fit the poem well because of its carefree and resonate lyrics and melody. I chose Pity Party by Melanie Martinez due to its comparable lyrics and mood. Macaroni Love articulates on the downfall of a relationship and the spite towards her
