Katy Perry Hot n Cold
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTHNpusq654
In this source, katy perry discusses the mercurial nature of a man she loves. In her lyrics, she indicates how "you change your mind like a girl changes clothes", "you over think, always speak cryptically". She is trying to say that the man she is referring to cannot make up his mind, and talks in an indirect manner. This frustrates katy perry, as she knows exactly what she wants, but the man does not.
Taylor Swift Love Story
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vls5WXTusfU
In this source, Taylor Swift is talking about her deep love for someone else. This example puts into the perspective the common stereotype that women are fragile and helpless while men are the dominant ones that are expected to help the women. She said she was "crying on the staircase, begging you please don't go". This shows her emotional fragility in her love. She also says "romeo save me I've been feeling so alone", which indicates her love requires her to always be near the one she loves, and that she requires his assistance."
I like your second source and I think that you have some good examples that relate to how women view love. It shows that women show love by expressing their feelings which goes along with the first article we read in class. You have some good ideas!
ReplyDeleteI think that both of these songs both portray love in a different way in our society. If I were to pick one of these two songs to choose my analysis over, I would pick Love Story by Taylor Swift because that song just has more material and a deeper meaning of love in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI really like your first source and the music video is pretty funny.To find the Mr.right is always a very difficult thing. That's why thousands of people are stuck in the trap of love.Sometimes, even we spend the whole life to chase someone, he or she would probably never remember your name. That's the sorrow of love.
