Date rape becomes evident numerous times throughout this tune, when thicke repeats, “you know you want it” this phrase suggests that all girls want is sex, and that even if a girl says no, it actuals means yes. It is also used by sexual predators, to justify their actions Thicke further sings “ but you’re an animal, baby its in your nature”, this lines suggests that girls cannot be tamed; unable to act as human beings but rather animals that are superior to men.

In this lyric when thicke states ‘ man is not your maker’in itself

The scene would begin when Equality is in the house reading the books. The music would start playing when he found the word I. After he finds this unusual word. He then would start flipping through the pages, in a way freaking out. He then would grab book after book and one by one they would fall to the ground. This is happening because he recognizes something he has never seen before and that he is trying to understand but he cannot. This song fits well for this scene because it at first starts subtle and kind of relaxed. This part would fit well for when he is starting to glance at the book. Then as the music transitions into the concentrated part. It hits this high point that conveys a very distinct emotion. The song goes from this enjoyment and amazing energy to this strong emotion of rage and betrayal. This song and the way the scene has been set up fits together because Equality is experiencing the same emotions. He is feeling like he is on top of the world until he encounters this word. Additionally, he feels frustrated because he has found out the truth that has been kept from him his whole life. This song would bring out his emotions because it is exactly what he is

This song sets the mood as it is an acoustic love song. The song changes when the loves first make physical contact in the elevator and becomes more intense which increases the passion between the two lovers. This music continues throughout the rest of the scene. Before Maria and Tony meet the other characters are dancing at the disco, the music is jazzy and upbeat, this is also set in a major key. When the lovers meet the music changes as the characters fade out.

From the album, A Seat at the Table, her song, “Don’t Touch My Hair,” remains a hit for black females around the world. This is Solange’s ode to black women where she aims to uplift and remind these women to be proud of who they are. The song is enriched with strong black pride. “Don’t Touch My Hair” is controversial and it stood out because of its powerful lyrics, how she used the visuals to illustrate the message, its relatability, and the way in which she brings awareness to current issues in her song.

What is remarkable about Four Women is the skillful yet overt approach to dealing with a sensitive construct. The song is

Each woman’s experience plays a different note that completes a beautiful melody and through their voice you see the essence of a woman.

Women’s music came from radical, grassroots origins in the 1970s thanks to contributions by brave women, mostly lesbians (Mosbacher, 2002). These women used non-violent, peaceful force to forge their own way into the music industry. It was a peaceful yet political revolution of togetherness and liberation. It brought together women of different backgrounds who produced easy-listening, mellow harmonies played with lyrics filled with tumultuous

As for the melody of the song, most of the verses ends up falling within the same pitch but ends up rising in pitch near the last few words through a combination of melodic steps in the beginning and leaps by the end. The melodic shape of the verse helps to emphasize a nostalgic mood by representing how the singer ends up becoming happier as he remembers the past that he loves. During the middle-8, the lines begin higher but end up lowering near the end. The melodic shape of the middle-8 helps to bring the mood back from being in love (higher pitches) to being realistic (lower pitches). The guitar riff also moves upward in steps and leaps. The instrumental guitar riff also has a very similar rhythmic pattern as the middle-8. The overall meter, melody, and rhythm help to convey a sense of authenticity in its emotions towards life and his lover through the presence of a constant pitch that subtly rises with emotions of nostalgia or

Accompanied only by the piano and the light sound of the drum, Sarah presents her moving voice with sophisticated techniques in Embraceable You. Her thick low notes, combining with heartfelt vibrato at the end of the phrases, makes you feel a sense of tenderness and sublime. After Jimmy Jones’ solo, her singing reaches a higher level. That “above” and the long note on “do” are her very moment of maternity. When she sings, you really believe that there are warm arms around you.

The reality is that the language in these songs gives to the listener can give them a dream of finding true love. The language gives hope to the listener that there is that one person they will love out there, but this also plays into the fear of heartbreak. Heartbreak was also discussed a great amount and is something that most people tend to fear. Another way that these songs play towards people’s fears and dreams is through social class and money. While social class is one of the most common issues, the lyrics and videos manage to give followers the images of how a luxurious lifestyle can lead to happiness and love.

Women could not create great music because they were too emotional to rationally and outwardly express them in music. As Upton explains, music is not only an art, “but an exact science, and, in its highest form, mercilessly logical and unrelentingly mathematical.” It means that music requires composers to have abilities to use musical instruments, laws of harmony, and counterpoint to express their thoughts and feelings in a logical way. Women were emotional by temperament and nature; composition is a cold-blooded operation. Their emotion prevented them from considering how to logically structure melody, tempo, and tone to reproduce music. Men, however, have highest achievements in music art because of their abilities to control emotion, combining

One example of the devices they used to influence the emphasis the song makes is the rhyme scheme AAAA used in order to give a smooth transition to every line in the song. This gives the feeling of a smooth transition into different chapters in the movie instead of having an alternating rhyme scheme that would rather make the song feel unconnected and as if the song misses key points before describing the next chapter. Another example is the heavy use of symbolism throughout the song. In the beginning, the dying swan is a reference to an inevitable fate that the female sees coming for her relationship. In the second version, the lyrics imply that the male character is better off without her by contrasting the word light to mean the male and darkness to represent the female.

From wearing cupcake bra outfits to performing in a lavish swimsuit, Katy Perry has demonstrated how women in the music industry use sex appeal to captivate their audience. In today’s society, it isn’t uncommon to see female artists in revealing, flashy outfits surrounded by flashing lights and steam. Artists such as Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj have certainly made news headlines for their audacious performances. In many cases, artists are presenting false images to their fans as an investment for future sales. Female artists continue to be sexually objectified by their audience, which increase their viewership, which leads to record labels pressuring artists to keep a sexy image.

There are so many talented female artists in music today that it's hard not to think of some right off the top of my head. Not only do they have great voices, but they're successful and confident, not to mention pretty darn rich! Some of these artists knew that they were going to become a star while they were still in diapers. The two females that I will be highlighting are two of the younger musical talents that are out in the industry at this time. They both worked hard to get to where they are today by starting off with many of the same dreams and aspirations many of us women share. These women have contributed so much at such a young age that it's almost hard to believe. Music is such a

Music can have a big influence on society or a person individually, this can be because everyone has personal feelings and perceives music differently. For this song assignment I choose If I were a boy by Beyonce Knowles. I choose this song because of how gender is seen in society and the differences between men and women and it’s impact in our world. The reason this song makes me think in a sociological manner is because we as people don’t know what it is like to be one gender or the other. Also, there are differences between the genders and we blame society for creating these differences, however we don’t actually stop assuming or agreeing with these differences. I think that personally I don’t always understand how there is such a big difference
