Me and the Moon

Music has always been a crucial part of the way society views the world. Some songs have hidden messages that can change’s one’s life and opinions. Today many songs become popular without having meaning. Something Corporate is a fairly new band, which sings, “Konstanine”, “You’re gone”, “Only Ashes”, and “Me and the Moon”. Being a new band in the music scene, they have caught many listeners attention through their lyrics. One of their more interesting songs is, “Me and the moon”. Something Corporate’s song “Me and the Moon” succeeds because it makes you think about relationships through subliminal messages.

Obviously, the author of the song “Me and the Moon” is the new and up coming band Something Corporate. This song brings in an audience of women who have difficult relationships with their significant other. Many of their songs tell their listeners real life experiences. “Me and the moon” appeals to people in relationships because it describes someone in a relationship that is suffering. Being alternative music, it appeals to people who are interested in rock music or like different kinds of music rather than the popular music. Most songs use pathos because of their emotional lyrics. We realize that this song is pathos because of the extremely personal experience represented in this song. Throughout the song, he uses emotional lyrics that touch your heart. Many people in unhealthy relationships can identify with this song

In the beginning verse of the song, the first line “It’s a good year for murder. She’s praying to Jesus. She’s pulling the trigger. There’s no tears, cause he’s not here. She washes her hands, and she fixes dinner, but soon they’ll be coming to rush her away. No one’s so sure if her crime had a reason”. This lyric tells us that a woman is trying to kill her husband. We can infer this because they describe the presence of a gun and her committing a crime. We can tell that they are married because they state activities that would be associated with being a house wife. The murder would be considered a crime because no one knew the pain her husband caused her. She has no feelings because she does not cry after she murders her husband. After killing her husband she has no remorse because of the damaged he caused.

In the next verse, Something Corporate tells us that “Reasons like seasons.

    The story of this poem tells about a young boy that is lured in by the sensuousness of the moon, and then dies because of his own desire for her. The symbolic meaning is much more hidden and disguised by the literary elements of the poem. The storyline and aspects of the literal story add meaning when searching for the figurative meaning. The warning learned from this poem is that infatuation with anything can lead to a downfall. The moon seemed to offer a comfort that attracted him, but it was only a disguise to lead him to death. The passion the young boy felt for the moon can easily be modified to describe the passion a person can feel for anything. The young boy saw safeness in the moon that brought him closer to her. Any obsession will seem to offer the same comforts that the young boy also saw, but this poem warns that death can always disguise itself.

    The theory model has a residual in the equation and later Mankiw and other researchers realized that much of residual might be due to human capital. Thus, researchers developed augmented Solow models, which contain human capital as an independent variable in explaining GDP growth.

    Today, I am going to discuss the system of government in my regime, North Korea. Our system of government is widely considered by the rest of the world to be an extreme dictatorship, is known as Juche within the country. This rejects ideas from elsewhere and focuses on using one’s own power and strength to form an opinion. The ideology of Juche is basically a rehash of previous communist ideas being presented in a new form, similar to Albania before 1992. It is considered by many commentators to be a country run by a “Cult of Personality” on a par with Stalinist Russia and Mao’s China (1). According to the Corruption Perceptions Index 2016, North Korea ranks 174 out of the 176 on corruption and inequality. To put this score in context, my country’s government is plagued by corrupt, untrustworthy, and badly functioning public institutions like the police and judiciary (2). Currently,

The stunning black & white cinematography often emulates the surface of the artist's canvas, while the music score weaves a tender, other-worldly tapestry of its own. Jennifer Jones is perfectly cast as the lovely, yet strangely sad and from-another-time Jennie Appleton. Joseph Cotten draws the viewer's sympathy as the struggling, starving artist, Eben Adams. Ethel Barrymore's portrayal of Adams' friend and mentor, Miss Spinney, adds strength to the film, and the first lady of the American film, Lillian Gish, offers Adams gentle and comforting grace as Sister Mary of Mercy.
