The poem could be considered as patriotic. The poem talks about how the speaker has darker skin, and how he is usually sent to the kitchen to eat while there is people over.

The poem “New Day’s Lyric” by the brilliant Amanda Gorman gives us hope as we venture past the struggles of last year and enter into a new one. Her way of using inspirational words throughout every line and stanza builds confidence in the readers so that we truly believe we will have an amazing year. Not only does she speak about being hopeful for the new year, but she also speaks about the importance of remembering the hardships of the past so that we notice how far we have come.

The song “Louie Louie” covered by the Kingsmen, a garage band from Portland, Oregon, is considered the first major hit song from such a band. Many garage bands from the 1960’s were simply one-hit wonders that were only well known by locals. The Kingsmen managed to break this mold; most of their fame was contributed to their version of the 1950’s song “Louie Louie” written by Richard Berry. Personally, while I am able to admit the song is fun to dance to, I do not see what made this song so appealing to listeners. The vocals are completely garbled to the point of being impossible to understand, which led to an FCC investigation, but it was determined that there was no profanity or explicit sexual references in the lyrics.

Here, John Cooper is explaining how the song was influenced by the couple’s story of abortion. However, this can be perceived as a pro-life argument in the disguise of a song. With Cooper giving his say of how this song hopes to impact his audience, we will continue to go in deeper
Theme: Friendship Song: “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” – Randy Newman “You've got a friend in me. You got troubles then I got them too. We stick together, we can see it through cause you've got a friend in me.” Justification: This song relates to the relationship George and Lennie had because even though Lennie was always getting in trouble, George was beside him no matter what.

Guy Montag had committed mistakes that he might regretted.
As time passes, people often think of their pasts and what they have done in their life, both positively and negatively. The lyrics of the song resonate with everyone, even the famous singer Macklemore who produced the song “Good Old Days.” In the song, he reflects on his past and the times he missed or regretted. Macklemore also writes “We’ve come so far, I guess I’m proud” which also shows that he’s happy with the choices he made and that they have gotten him to where he is now—a famous musician and writer.
