Find What a Song Tells You


 Intro

the first part of the song where the singer's voice has not been heard, only the instrument. 



Verse or stanza

the introductory part to the Bridge chorus, is used to bridge between parts of a song. Like between a chorus with a verse or a chorus with a modulating chorus. The notes played on the bridge are generally very different from the verse and chorus. 



Chorus

the main message or story of the song. Using a different tone pattern and more comfortable than the verse



Reff

means repetition. 



 Coda

 is the final part of the song with the tone and verse to close the song. In contrast to brigde, coda takes some pre-existing lyrics and notes.





Language Feature

Imagery (simile or imagination)

  Describes about feelings and emotions, meaning that a song usually tries to describe the feelings that the writer feels.



  Rhythm (rhythm)

  Rhythm here is used to create the mood. For example, if we are sad and listen to a song with a slow rhythm, we will get carried away with the song. So, rhythm creates mood!



  Figures of speech

Some figurative words used in a song



 Metaphor (metaphor)

At first glance, the two things being compared are unrelated, but actually there are similarities between the two things, for example: Time is a thief (time is a thief) or Her hair was silk (his hair is like silk).



 Simile (figuratively)

A thing is described with something similar using the word 'like' or 'as', for example: My love is like a red rose



 Hyperbole (hyperbola)

A thing is described too much, sometimes it tickles because it's too much



 Personification (personification)

An object appears like a person means the object (not human) has the ability like a human. Such as: The wind whisper or The snowflakes danced in the wind.



 Alliteration (alliteration)

The repetition of the sound atthe beginning of each word. For example: Peter Parker picks a pack of pants punctually (Peter Parker changes his suit on time).



Example of song

Rewrite the stars



You know I want you

It's not a secret I try to hide

I know you want me

So don't keep saying our hands are tied

You claim it's not in the cards

But fate is pulling you miles away

And out of reach from me

But you're here in my heart

So who can stop me if I decide

That you're my destiny?





What if we rewrite the stars?

Say you were made to be mine

Nothing could keep us apart

You'd be the one I was meant to find

It's up to you, and it's up to me

No one can say what we get to be

So why don't we rewrite the stars?

Maybe the world could be ours

Tonight



You think it's easy

You think I don't want to run to you

But there are mountains

And there are doors that we can't walk through

I know you're wondering why

Because we're able to be

Just you and me

Within these walls

But when we go outside

You're going to wake up and see that it was hopeless after all



No one can rewrite the stars

How can you say you'll be mine?

Everything keeps us apart

And I'm not the one you were meant to find

It's not up to you

It's not up to me

When everyone tells us what we can be

How can we rewrite the stars?

Say that the world can be ours

Tonight
