What Is The Meaning Of Voice By Mariah Carey

Decent Essays
When Jane realizes that Rochester is married to Bertha she is devastated. Rochester asks Jane to be his mistress, but she follows her morals and decides to run away. This song would make Jane feel better because it reassures that what she is doing is correct . The passion in Mariah Carey's voice represents the love that Jane feels for Rochester, even though she knows staying with him is not the right thing to do. The song does a good job of conveying Jane's emotions: “Cause the time wasn't on Your side It isn't right I can't say I love you”. If Jane and Edward met earlier, or later, than she has, then they could have been together.
