Les Paul

relationship is personified through the lead vocal, Paul McCartney, who is challenged by the counterpoint harmonies that follow each line (i.e., the second vocal). The second voice sings in falsetto (i.e., singing in a higher octave than the normal pitch, of the lead) to create a counterpoint/contradiction to McCartney’s vocal; however, the counterpoint can serve as tension followed by the release done by McCartney (or vice versa). For example, when Paul sings, "a little better all the time"…

remember why Paul wrote what he did. He had received word that the church of Corinth did not believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead at the return of Jesus. The question at hand is whether or not those who place their faith in Christ will be resurrected at Christ's return. This is is evident earlier in verse 12 when Paul asked “how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?” Paul uses the arguments given in verses 29-32 as grounds for verses 33 and 34. In verse 29 Paul…

non-traditional looks and sounds. Though they always had split even song writing rights, there are songs where when you listen you can hear Paul more than John or vice versa, but it’s the fact of how one of them could write a whole song in its entirety and, during this time, they would be able to put a bit of their own personality into the song; as to say in a John written song, Paul can still insert himself in some sort of way, which in my opinion makes this partnership much more intricate.…

the word. Lennon then asks if the listener has “heard the word is love?” (The Beatles, “The Word”). According to this song, love can set one free. The song “Michelle” shows that love can exist even with a language barrier. This song is sung by Paul McCartney and he confesses his love for Michelle, a French girl. McCartney sings the words, “I love you, I love you, I love you / That's all I want to say” (The Beatles, “Michelle”). Although Michelle is not able to understand his words in…

The Apostle Paul, wrote the book of Romans around 56-57 A.D. The book of Romans is a letter Paul was writing to the Roman people, to give them a foundation for their faith in Jesus. Paul is trying to get the point across to the Romans that your works will not get you into heaven, its all about your heart. In Romans 7:6, Paul says, "But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the spirit, and not in the old way of the law.”…

In 2009, three brothers decided to form an alternative rock band in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia, but they needed a name. The band’s drummer, Michael Douglas Jeffery, suggested the name, which he said came to him in a dream. Michael’s brother, Keith William Hamilton Jeffery, serves as the lead vocalist and guitarist, and his other brother, Steven Roger Jeffery, is the band’s bass guitarist. The brothers took on a fourth member, keyboardist Darren Norman Sell, shortly after the band’s…

Events that led to the Boston Massacre From 1763 – 1775 the Stamp and the Townshend Acts were introduced that affected the economy and the way business is conducted today.

Paul Revere was an important member of the Sons of Liberty, a pin smith and an engraver. One of his most famous pieces of art was a depiction of the Boston Massacre in 1770. Although this is a firsthand account, it cannot be considered a reliable source. As an avid patron of the freedom of the colonists, his drawings are extremely biased in favor of the colonies. He leaves out the historical evidence of the Boston Massacre where the colonists are also at fault. Therefore, his Boston Massacre…

All eyes were on England and their colonies in the mid to late 1700’s. Other countries were watching the escalating tensions between the British Colonies and their mother country. To have the audacity to completely mount a rebellion was unheard of, although, the Colonists were left with no choice. England’s actions were radical and disrespectful at the least, and without them, there would not have been a revolution. England brought the revolution upon themselves, by enforcing the Currency Act,…

term used to describe the mass communist “witch hunt” within the government, and its impact on certain individuals and politics, rather than focusing on its effects for movements such as civil rights for African-Americans.
