The song “19th Nervous Breakdown” was written with the rolling stones were on tour. The reason for I decide to go with this song was because it was different than the other music I heard. The other music from the textbook that was played by the rolling stone was more like soft music. I’m not really into soft music. I like music that is more hip and dance-worthy. This song just reminded me of a whole bunch of beach movie or old casino movies. It reminds me of a woman stealing something and walking out and getting away with it then, she meets her man and runs off. Actually, it mostly reminded me of a show I use to watch. I love watching shows of the past but I could never remember the names of them. Once you hear the song you just want to be …show more content…
Brown You’ve Got a Lovely Daughter” by Herman Hermits it is completely different. This song sounds more depressing like a song you want to be in bed crying too. The “19th Nervous Breakdown” it is not a fully dancing song but you just want to rock your head up and down. The song from Herman Hermits you just want to sit down and listen. The song from Hermits its more something older people would like and not teens who are looking for music to have fun. The song from the Rolling Stones is a song you want to listen to all your friends and just enjoy everything that comes. The difference also is that the Rolling Stones used a lot of instruments. Hermits song did use instruments but you couldn’t really hear it like in the song from the Rolling Stones. Also, I really didn't like Hermits' voice I found it kind of annoying. It was a voice that I don't think girls would have found fascinating. As for the voice of the Rolling Stones, it was a voice that was more normal, more interesting like you could not stop listening to. This two songs where really good but most people would say that Rolling Stones were much better. I really didn't listen to these type of music until I took this class. I also have a roommate who is a big fan the Rolling Stone which she also showed me other music that they place. I liked the song the Rolling Stone plays that is "Gimme Shelter". The song was very catching as well but I think I still like the 19th Nervous Breakdown just
Another song that I thought a lot about when I heard it was "Grandpa was a Carpenter." I remember a lot about my grandpa and just like in the song Grandpa and me used to do everything together when I was little, and when he got sick, I didn't really understand what was happening because I was so little. I remember how as I got older he couldn't do much anymore.
Describe the differences between the soundtrack of the film in the expository phase and in the time Chuck is on the island. What are the sounds we hear in each one? What is the message the filmmakers are trying to tell us through these differences?
I personally never heard this song before writing this essay but I actually really like it, especially after watching “The end live in LA” on YouTube, the performance was really good. What I like most was the guitarist who played the best tones throughout the whole
“Rock Awhile” by Goree Carter is a lot more upbeat than “Devil Got my Woman”, with more swing to it. This song is much faster paced and can be danced to. Also about a woman, this song has more happy lyrics about a woman he loved and how his baby was coming home. There are a lot more instruments to this song like an electric guitar, a piano, a saxophone, percussion, etc. and the song was primarily instrumental, which emphasized these different musical instruments. Goree Carter’s voice was a lot smoother than James’ which made it easy to understand and follow along with, and the strength that came from his vocal style easily pulls you in.
Nervousness was a condition described, according to Dr. George M. Beard, “strictly deficiency or lack of nerve-force” (American Nervousness, vi) in the 19th century. Nervousness at the time, was commonly acknowledged and accepted, so much so that it was written into literature, such as many of Jane Austen’s works. Many doctors considered nervousness to be a “woman’s disease” meaning that women were the most afflicted by this condition. Doctors of the 19th century have found excuses to restrict, restrain, objectify and metaphorically and literally lock women away, more specifically with the diagnosis of nervousness and other diseases that branch out from “the nerves”.
In the 1840’s, the United States started to build public insane asylums instead of placing the insane in almshouses or jail. Before this, asylums were maintained mostly by religious factions whose main goal was to purify the patient (Hartford 1). By the 1870’s, the conditions of these public insane asylums were very unhealthy due to a lack of funding. The actions of Elizabeth J. Cochrane (pen name Nellie Bly), during her book “Ten Days in a Mad-House,” significantly heightened the conditions of these mental asylums during the late 1800s.
The 12th track on the album is “The Document Speaks For Itself,” this song embodies everything that A Day To Remember is and it blends everything they’ve done with previous records, it is musical genius. Being a hardcore band, the instrumentation includes two guitars, a lead and a rhythm, a bass guitar, drums, and two kinds of vocals, clean singing and a “death growl” scream. What makes this particular song so unique is that it is a balance of everything the band tries to do with making songs, it mixes their heavy side with a melodic chorus. When analyzing the form, it was difficult to classify the song with some of the basic forms like binary or ternary, because of the uniqueness of the style of music how it repeats and changes, the form ...
The lyrics are significantly more drawn out with longer notes in the classic version of the song. Nat King Cole also has a much different style of singing. Instead of using low and smooth notes throughout like Diana did, Nat King Cole focused on a variety of pitches from very low to very high, as well changing his volume quite a bit more. The original song, while it is slower, does not feel as soothing and pretty as the newer version created by Diana Krall.
Mental health is a relevant issue in Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness. Not only is Kurtz’ mental health questionable throughout the novel, but Marlow also has to be examined by a physician, to check both his physical and mental status, before he starts on the journey to Africa. The mental health community in the late 19th and early 20th centuries was not nearly as developed as it is today, but many developments during this time period had a profound impact on the way we analyze the human psyche and mental health today.
A couple of other songs they played were “Bothered,” “Cruel and Pretty” and “Changes Come.” If you had never heard the band before tonight, this is where you would probably think all the songs sounded very similar. Slow, piano and sad. The variety lies in the songwriting, if you start paying attention to the lyrics now, you’d have a different opinion. I almost think what they say is so poignant sometimes it should be in a book or poem by itself. But on the other hand, if you took away the way Barquist sings it, or the accompanying instrumentation, I doubt you would get the same idea. They can even make an acoustic guitar sound like it’s in pain and crying.
No matter where they were, mad houses, or insane asylums, have the same basic features and functions. The views of asylum life changed drastically over the course of the nineteenth century.
The man feels abandoned in a corner and he drinks for the sadness he feels. While drinking, he tells himself I do not understand why you left me, if I know she loved me, so if you ever regret your decision he will be waiting for you. Basically, the man feels broken emotionally because the women he loved, left him for no reason. This song to me is not a dancing song, however the song is more about remembering your ex-wife, ex-girlfriend or ex husband and ex-boyfriend. For me personally, this song reminds me of drinking, the title literally means bitter shots of liquor. The way the song shares the hurt the man feels by the women that left him. I could almost picture a man sitting at a bar drinking to his ex saying, “I’m drinking because of you, you caused this”. I could picture that scene in my head because I have seen my friends in Mexico and my cousins in Mexico do
The Rolling Stones were described as the voice of teenage rebellion. The huge success of The Stones proved any talented musician can make it in the music
I choose to compare these two artist because I grew up listening to Otis Redding with my grandparents and I really enjoy the soulful side of rhythm and blues rather than the pop side. As mentioned above after hearing several songs from Coming Home by Leon Bridges I was shocked at how his music resembled songs from the mid 1900s. Bridges and Redding both use song phrasing in order to tell a story through their music. From listening to their songs you are able to hear the gospel influence in their music. In the song “Twistin’ and Groovin” Bridges is attempting to share the story of how is grandparents meet. The lyrics are simple in that fact Bridges is telling a story rather than using many metaphor to convey his message. The first song I heard by Leon Bridges was “River” which is a song about salvation and turning to the Lord.
The love in this song makes you want to just smile. It is the most positive you can get about love form my point of view. He is so detailed about how the one girl has captured his life and make it fantastic. The emotions that go though your head when listening to this song are nothing bad about love. It could spark a bad idea, like when you just broke up with your boyfriend and this some reminds you of what you had. This song should make your view on love be very wide and not make you question just go with what your heart tells you.
