Adaptation And Analysis: See You Again

Decent Essays
For my Adaptation and Analysis I am doing “See You Again” by Wiz Khalifa Featuring Charlie Puth. I believe this song has a very deep and meaningful background to it. In the song, it talks about basically that yes, you have lost a loved one, but you will see them again, meaning you will once again be reunited together. This can be reunited whether it be spiritually or physically, it is declaring that one day you will both see each other again. In saying this, it keeps hope in to the fact of how life goes on but we as humans never let go of some things. Lost loves ones are one thing that we will never let go of and always keep dear to us and close in our hearts, making this song even more heartfelt.
Throughout the song, Khalifa says that he

It gives the song a personal feel but it’s a type of personal feel that more and more people can relate to since the underlying background in the song is so heavily set on the movie Fast 7 which did feature Paul Walker. The song is a tribute to Paul Walker if you will. The song helps promote thinking about like family, not necessarily family that you were born with and are related to with blood but it can even be family in the car community and car culture which is where it is mainly based. Throughout the song there is no other way to explain it other than the main focus of the song and the meaning behind it is that family isn’t just family via being related by blood, family is anyone who is willing to give up anything for someone else to make sure they enjoy their lives just as much as they would with a family related via blood. In conclusion it is just saying throughout the car culture that most people are your family throughout the scene and that is what is wanted to be supported throughout it. Also Family is everything, that is one saying that was very highly sought after and supported through the Fast and Furious series which is that this song has reinforced and explained in great

    The reaction that this song is trying to express is that from an early age it is important that we teach and show our children that doing the right thing is an imperative to leading a good life. Also, that when stray from that vision we end up suffering and losing everything we hold important to us as human beings. The social problems referenced in this song generally revolve around how young minorities in large city environments tend to join gangs and get influenced by their peers to turning to crime to find wealth. Eventually, these children get addicted to the life of crime and turn to robbery, drugs, and murder in order to survive.…

    Listening to the selections I found they all generally appeal to me though others have more of an immediate preference than others. A genuine love for music creates an appreciation for all genres. One can respect or acknowledge the environment from which it was produced, its purpose, and the skill of the musician(s). I particularly became fond of The Andrew Sisters after experiencing the song “The Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy”. I recall hearing it from a television commercial vaguely, but it was a completely new thing to see and hear them perform it.…

    Analysis Of Adios Amor

    Throughout my lifetime, there has been moments of laughter as well as grief. But a moment in my life that was pivotal was when I first felt the love of my life, at the moment, fade away slowly from me and sort of detach from our relationship. The song by Christian Nodal- “Adios Amor” showed me how at times when the love fades between partners to the point where there is no love at all, you have to do your best to move on rather than spending time grieving the love that is lost. Therefore, the song “Adios Amor” gave me the tough realization that some relationships are best to let go of if they don’t work as a young adult, and will continue to guide me throughout my life.…

    Too many people bank on the idea that there is time. Time to do all they have plan out to do. People wake up every day to sit at a desk all day to do the same work they do every day. Then they drive home on the same roads they do every day, and come home to do the same routine every day. Working at a job they don’t like, in a town they don’t like, surrounded by people they don’t like.…

    It shows that marriage can be corrupt and that cheating will cause a lot of person to your “significant other.” This song really is for anyone that has experienced or is going through a marriage or even just a relationship finding out that their significant other is cheating.

    The media perceives Taylor Swift as nothing more than a clingy, manipulative, and crazy young woman who jumps from relationship to relationship. Being the lyrical genius she is, Swift created the song "Blank Space" in 2014 to defend her position with this preconceived notion. She uses many rhetorical devices to explain her position in this argument against the media. With the beneficial use of rhetorical devices, Taylor Swift shows that boys will only stay if it is worth a fight, and that she is fully conscious of the media representation.…

    What does a “reputation” mean? As defined by the Cambridge dictionary, reputation is “the opinion that people in general have about someone or something or how much respect and admiration someone or something receives based on past behavior and character.” Based on this explanation, we realize that each individual is responsible for shaping his own reputation, either purposely – similar to what many politicians do – or naturally by his actions, good ones or bad ones. But an established reputation is not always uniform, meaning it opens a debate about a certain person, action or event.…

    Adaptation and translation It is a well-known fact that in order to obtain a perfect translation, one must go beyond the superficial meaning of the words. And is very important to extract what the words mean in a particular situation according to the cultural context. Considering the cultural element helps us understand that the translator is not only person involved in the translation process, he also gives us a new culture with another way of thinking, deep understanding the culture of another nations. For instance, in the book entitled Leaving the Atocha Station by Ben Lerner, the main character, Adam Gordon, is a young American poet who came to Madrid, Spain, for a fellowship, translates some poetry. Adam’s translation was a translation of converting words or text from one language into another; in other words, he was adapting poetry by using the exact equivalent or close by meaning…
