Don T Quit And Hall Of Fame: Song Analysis

“There are a number of different lyrics used in songs that have been derived from poetry” (Kumar). Poetry is an older form of art and song lyrics have evolved from the art. However, it is a great debacle over which one can be considered the higher art form. The underlying question is if song lyrics have evolved past poetry, or has poetry remained artistic and intellectual. Despite bearing some superficial similarities, the differences between “To a Daughter Leaving Home” and “Never Grow Up” in imagery, message, and point of view are prevalent causing poetry to be considered a higher form of art.

With every aspect of our lives we are making a point, arguing a belief, or refuting some other aspect of our existence. Aesthetic pieces, most avidly poems and songs, argue a message both in the lyrics and in the meaning posed between the lines. “American Pie,” in a multitude of ways, argues that American lives and memories are closely intertwined with the music of the time period. Not only does “American Pie” argue a message it also pulls many generations together. Today, thirty years after the initial release, “American Pie” still has an effect in our music and continues to be popular with all age groups. Don McLean accomplishes this task through using the context of the time period, placement of words, the words

In this scenario I would ensure that the clients Psychologist is present, along with his Doctor and perhaps a staff member from the

When deciding whether form ‘enables authors to communicate meaning more effectively’ it is important to first discover what the author is trying to express through their literature. Whilst motifs and themes may be apparent to an audience, upon reading a novel or watching a play. However, is not necessarily truthful to the authors intended meaning if the meaning itself is within within symbolism or dialogue.

Psychotherapy and counselling are inseparable. The effectiveness of a counselling program is not just based on the connectedness and interaction between a therapist and a client, but also the framework of the counselling approach in helping the client improving his mental health or overcoming personal problems. There are an extensive number of psychotherapies developed by past researchers, with each therapeutic concept offering unique contributions in understanding human behaviour and useful implications for counselling practice (Bedi et al., 2011).

A common theme among many scholars is modern poetry lacks poetic merit. The modern version of poetry is more often than not, found as music and more specifically as lyrics opposed to stanzas. “Traditional” poetry is known for its poetic merit; however, modern poetry, music, also has elements that can be found in traditional poetry. Poetic merit usually refers to the use of numerous poetic elements: figurative language, imagery, symbolism, allusions, etc. Though scholars may regard music as lacking in poetic merit, the song “Glory” by John Legend and Common proves otherwise through its use of symbolism, alliteration, and allusions to put forth its emotional lyrics that depict the struggles of the Civil Rights Movement.

Clients who seek therapeutic help/counselling may be in a vulnerable position and feel anxious or depressed. Some people could lately experience great incident that make them feel extremely despair. (Tony Marry p.11) noted that in those periods of time individuals are more susceptible to being abused or emotionally attacked and it can be harder to recognize immoral and unethical practices. For example, when the therapist purposely extend the sessions than is needed to get more money, or is in other than professional relationship with clients. The counsellor offers time, non-judgmental attitude and fully accept clients. Therefore in some cases they may develop strong feelings towards them and perceive the therapist as a wise, powerful figure. However, if a practitioner is a member of a professional organization, it means that they are obliged to

Authors have different ways to convey the emotions from their work to the reader. Diction and sentence structure is one of the many components authors use to create the tone of the story, also known as the author’s attitude towards the subject. But with the use of figurative language it helps express the meaning of a line without using its literal definition. Homer, the author of The Odyssey, used figurative language to express the tone by using personification and similes to help the reader picture and sense his words.

In the generation that we live in today, everyone has gone through some hardships that they had or are going through. To get through those hardships, that certain individual may need that one song that will lift their spirits and give them the right motivation to prosper. In class we can discuss two poems in particular, “I Too, Sing America” written by famous poet Langston Hughes and “We Wear the Mask” written by Paul Laurence Dunbar. The similarities between the two brings the upmost feeling of hope and that at the end of every tunnel there is light, therefore; there is no need to give up. To correctly compare the two, the song “Just Stand Up” sang by multiple well-known female artists.

“contribute a portion of their professional time for little or no compensation or personal advantage” to client’s within the psychologists’ state of jurisdiction (APA, 2002, p. 3).

In closing, it is so important to remember the relevance of music and its effects on society. While some can argue music has a greater consequence on society, it is important to remember why the music was created. The afore mentioned artists created their music in a way to focus on how to relay a particular message about how people were feeling about what was going on during those certain periods of time. Whether it be during the Civil Rights Movement or just general songs relaying how society was reacting to different situations such as a continuing feeling of racial

Case conceptualization explains the nature of a client’s problem and how they develop such problem ( Hersen, & Porzelius, p.3, 2002) In counseling, assessment is viewed as a systematic gathering of information to address a client’s presenting concerns effectively. The assessment practice provides diagnostic formulation and counseling plans, and aids to identify assets that could help the client cope better with concern that they are current. Assessment is present as a guide for treatment and support in the “evaluation process. Although many methods can be employed to promote a thorough assessment, no one method should be used by itself” (Erford, 2010, p.269-270). Eventually, it is the counselor's job to gain adequate

The strongest argumentative claim can be quite difficult when it comes to music. Music can be interpreted in many different ways and messages. The three songs that come to mind that have strong meanings are, “For What It’s Worth,” by Buffalo Springfield, “Get Up, Stand Up,” by Bob Marley, and “What’s Going On,” by Marvin Gaye. All three of these artists were performing back in the 60s that were trying to make a statement for the world. In this essay, all three songs will be analyzed by their messages to the world.

Bennett and Royle in their text ‘An Introduction to Literature, Criticism and Theory’ said, “Figuration is fundamental to our world, to our lives”. Figuration comes across as being fundamental because it emphasizes a story, which may or may not lead to an uncertainty between literal and figurative reading, because you’re saying something but meaning something else. Tropes/figures of speech has been used in many different stanzas’ to create creativity; because it has the ability to change a word into something it has no connection with. The use of figures and tropes has been identified in The Merchant of Venice, which also identifies conceptual idea of racial differences.

Counsellors should take sufficient periods of time between clients in their clinic to allow for grounding, as counselling places considerable demands on the counsellor. Counsellors should also be mindful of the number of clients that they see in a typical week. Counsellors should only enter into a therapeutic relationship on a voluntary basis and as a result of an informed decision to do so. When a counsellor is experiencing difficulties such as emotional or personal difficulties, illness or any matter that impairs their functioning they should refrain from seeing clients. This may present as a challenge to many counsellors as they may often continue working for financial or feelings of obligation; however this is unethical and may leave the counsellor and the client
