Song of Songs

In both the translation of the episode (left column), and the Siren song (right column), the Sirens are portrayed as potential threats to the men aboard any ship that happens to encounter them. The translation of the episode is written conveying Odyssues and his crew's point of view. While approaching the Sirens, Odysseus breaks pieces of beeswax for his men to protect their ears from the Siren song. ''I stopped the ears of my comrades one by one'', this illustrates that the Sirens were a…

performed songs such as “Black Market”, “Waterfall”, “Teen Town”, “Birdland”, and many more. The concert opens with the song ‘Black Market”. The song begins with Joe Zawinul establishing a melody on the synthesizer while the drums and bass set a groovy beat. The tenor saxophone makes an appearance at the scene. Throughout the song, bassist, Jaco Pastorious, plays a couple of unique sounds. Eventually, there is a solo performed by the saxophone with the drums as accompaniment. The song…

A Song and Play Comparison Jade daudt The song ‘they don’t know about us’ by One Direction is similar in comparison to William Shakespears play ‘Romeo and Juliet’. ‘They don’t know about us’ is about a boy and a girl in love but everyone is saying that they are too young to be in love. The boy is telling the girl that he doesn’t care about what the others are saying and that…

“I Don’t Want to Live Forever,” Zayn Malik and Taylor Swift: This song really matches the mood of 4.1, the second part of this scene is where Juliet is trying to have the Friar make a plan or she will kill herself. In this song the lyrics say “I don’t want to live forever, ‘cause I’ll know i’ll be living in vain And I don’t want to fit wherever I just wanna keep calling your name till you come back home.” This is like Juliet because she just wants to be with Romeo, and if she can’t be she will…

I strongly recommended A Song of Ice and Fire to be a required fiction to read. It is worthwhile. Firstly, A Song of Ice and Fire, in my point of view, is not merely a fantasy and fiction, it more like a historical stories, reflected the moment in Wars of the Roses, representing a change of epics. The continents Westeros and Essos are similar as the two rival branches in throne of England: House of Plantagenet and House of York in 15th century, and even parallel as the current confliction…

The song I have chosen for the My Favorite Song Assignment is “Crazy On You,” by the rock group Heart. It has been my all-time favorite song since I was in high school, and was one of the first songs I learned how to play on guitar. It is a stellar example of rock music that was popular in the seventies and displays the accomplished songwriting talents of lead singer Ann Wilson, her guitar-playing sister Nancy, as well as the contributions of the other members of the band: Howard Leese, Roger…

The next stage of the song-making process is to start thinking of ideas for the song. After music writers find their inspiration, they start pondering concepts for what kind of song they want to create. This part of the process is like now: middle school. I have found the drive to continue my education past high school and am now starting to generate ideas of where to go for college. Harvard. Yale. Ivy League. Out of state. These ideas have circled my head for years, and I have made it my target…

Both “Siren Song” by Margaret Atwood paired with Ulysses The Sirens by John Williams Waterhouse use the myth of Ulysses to show that he was surrounded by sirens and tied to an long pole and couldn't break loose.The Sirens were scary and dangerous creatures that seduced the sailors with their attractive voices to their doom and causing the ships to ruin by the island.The Sirens likes to hurt people by luring sailors with their enchanting music to their…

it comes from a unique blend of the song itself and the environment surrounding the listener. One song can leave your whole body covered in goose bumps with your hair sticking straight up; this is exactly what happened to me when I heard Renegade by Styx for the first time. Styx is an American rock band from Chicago that dominated the rock scene in the mid 1970’s and early 1980’s. Renegade was released in 1979 when Styx was comprised of five members; the song made its way to #16 on the billboard…

The song Stitches was released in 2015 and performed by the artist, Shawn Mendes. The song has an acoustic version created by the original artist, Shawn Mendes, along with Hailee Steinfeld. Mendes and Steinfeld released their version of Stitches later in 2015. The two versions incorporate similar, and contrasting characteristics and argumentative tactics into their separate versions. Each artist utilizes different tactics in their respective version of the song in order to convey a precise…
