their same devotion (Schlesinger 2008). The group of AC/DC got along pretty good, yes their were some struggles along the way, they got along so well because a couple of them were brothers, and they were all crazy. The members of AC/DC consisted of Phil Rudd who played drums, Brian Johnson who led vocals, Angus Young with the guitar, Cliff Williams at bass, and Malcolm Young who played guitar. The former members of the AC/DC band consisted of Simon Wright at the drums, also Chris Slade at drums, Ronald Belford or Bon Scott doing the vocals, and Mark Evans with bass. Bon Scoot who was a member of AC/DC died one night after heavy drinking then he choked on his own vomit then the rest of the group made a big hit album called “Back in Black” with the front and back of the album paid tribute to Scott (Yamami, 2004). Scents the death happened Stevie Young took Bon Scotts spot as a rhythm guitar player ( Mengel,…

The foundation empowers children, promotes awareness and works hard to prevent the misuse of drugs and alcohol. This is Amy Winehouse’s legacy after…

While many songs explore the themes of love and heartbreak, “Back to Black” by Amy Winehouse presents a unique perspective on the inner turmoil that may engulf individuals in the aftermath of a break-up. The speaker discusses their relapse into depression and substance abuse after the dissolution of their relationship, providing insight into the intimate, and often undisclosed adversities experienced. I argue that this effect is achieved through the creation of a speaker that evolves and…

Kathryn Kalinak also argued that the use of music that has already been released in the past, for example Beyonce and Andre 3000's updated version of Amy Winehouse's classic 'Back to Black' may, 'trail with them personal histories and trigger memories, experiences and emotions, which may be at odds with [a] film's dramatic needs' (2010: 87), e.g. the viewer thinks of the late Amy Winehouse's death rather than concentrates on the film. This being said could be a possibility, although this opinion…

The sixth song is called “Back in Black” this song starts with the dumber taping the symbols as the melody starts and one of the most famous guitar riffs comes blazing, as this fast pace song gives you a rush of adrenaline. Lyrically is hard to fallow as it sounds like rap and some of the lyrics are hard to understand but what I understand it is about getting back in the rock and roll party life. The seventh song is called “You Shook Me All Night Long” song starts with a guitar melody as it…

Dilday, K.A. “ Go back to Black.” New York Times Publishing, 2008: 515-516. Dilday suggests that it is time for us to retire the term “ African- American”, and consider everyone who is Black as family. Dilday gives examples of those who consider themselves African American like those who are caribbean, moroccan and uses Barack obama as an example to show how they all are one and not inclusive. Dildays purpose is to show how the term African American should be replaced as Black, in order to show…

significant other, and it can even go as far as feeling betrayed by the entire world. The song that I chose for this assignment is “Back to Black” by Amy Winehouse. In this song Winehouse talks about how her ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil and how he betrayed her by leaving her and going back to his ex-girlfriend. Amy Winehouse, a depressed alcoholic, met Blake Fielder-Civil, an addict to several hard drugs, in 2005. When they met Blake Fielder-Civil was already in a relationship. They…

character. Text 1: The Hate U Give # Quotes Theme Connections (x2) 1 “Funny how it works with white kids though.It’s dope to be black until it’s hard to be black.” (Thomas, 11) This relates back to the theme because the quote states that being black is a mystery since people will treat you one way to your face but behind your back it’s the complete opposite. This quote also touches upon the definition of what is considered “cool” and not stray too far on what “white” people…

Black equality was not achieved then and is still not achieved today. If racial equality was achieved back then, it wouldn’t be a discussion today whether or not it was effective. If we have to ask the question of whether or not black equality was achieved, then it is evident and clear that there still isn’t equality. Even though it may have seemed back then in the north there was black equality there were still Jim Crow laws happening in the south. It was like going 1 step forward eliminating…

Representatives in the American Colonization Society (ACS) “believed that blacks and whites could not coexist in freedom” (Gates 58) creating the colonization movement. The concept behind this movement was to remove African Americans from America back to Africa. This was thought to be a solution to "gradually end the institution of slavery and thus the problem of race by removing all the slaves and former slaves back to Africa" (Gates 58). This appealed and benefited the white community more…
