Song Analysis: Some Enchanted Evening

285 Words2 Pages

1. After viewing the documentary and listening to each song by Rodgers and Hammerstein the song that made the most impact on me was the song “Some Enchanted Evening.” The song consists of very smooth and romantic melodies. Due to that I am a hopeless romantic I really enjoy the song lyrics and melody. The song was very catchy that I ended up singing the song for the rest of my day. One of my favorite lyrics of the song was.
“The sound of her laughter will sing in your dreams. Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own
For all through your life you
May dream all alone.”
The song in general is a beautiful song that talks about love.

    This song is about his fiance whom he knew from school many years ago, and found their love again when they were both working in New York when they were older. Ed Sheeran had nice use of figurative language through his lyrics, portraying that they should dive into their relationship. He continues to use metaphors like this and a lot of imagery details to put us in the scene with them dancing. You can feel how much he means the word, “I don’t deserve this” referring to his fiance. He put so much effort and emotion into this song, so this is why I would categorize this song as a great love

    Every time a character would break out in song dance, it always correlated with the feelings they had. The famous scene of Lockwood singing in the rain portrayed the actual happiness that the character was feeling in that moment. As an audience member, the scene did not feel strange because the average individual knows what it’s like to be so happy, you feel like singing and dancing. The MGM musicals produced by Arthur Freed specifically combined surrealistically imaginative musical numbers, enjoyable scores, a pleasing use of color, and funny, spoofing plots that often still related to the

    Beyond its role in the greater context of the plot, the song itself plays around with JFKDSLFJSDKLFJ. Lyrically, the song is quite bland. In particular, its imagery is clichéd: wedding bells, birds, roses, etc. However, this makes sense for someone who has fell in love for the first time. In addition, the repetition of the line “Till there was you” creates a lyrical base to which the previous line, referring to not being able to appreciate symbols of live, can return.

    The way she wrote the song sounded very sad and deep. It was a very realistic piece of text. Sad and realistic is her typical style of music, but keeping it down to earth and realistic relays the message she is trying to convey much easier. When you make songs sound sad, people tend to listen more. This song uses a lot of rhyming so that it is catchier and draws people into liking

    This song fits very nicely into my anthology because it is all about dreaming and imagining what the world would be like if we lived in peace, happiness, and unity. I particularly like the lyrics, “You may say I’m a dreamer But I’m not the only one,” because it connects to the other poems. “Solitude” reminds me that even in our struggles, we are not alone, just like those lyrics say that we are all dreamers together. Also, the last verse connects to “Dreams” because Lennon and Hughes want everyone to continue dreaming in order to live the most fulfilling life.
