Ok everyone, once again i'm going to give you guys a little flashback about My favorite song

A song is a short piece of music, usually combines with words, melody, and

vocals. A song consists of words called lyrics, verses which tell the story, and a

refrain, a short phrase repeated at the end of every verse.

Buthe social functions of a song are :

• To entertain the listeners

• To express personal feeling /emotion

• To motivate /inspire others

• To appreciate work of art

Generic structure:

❖ Song Title

❖ Verse

: a series of lyrics that tell the main story of the song and keep the action or

thoughts moving forward

❖ Chorus/refrain

: meant to be the most memorable part, containing the ultimate message of

the piece

❖ Bridge

: a passage of music that contrasts the verse and the chorus, and is generally

used to take the listener from one section to the next.

Languange features:

- Figurative language ( the use of words, phrase, or sentence to beautify or

sometimes to hide the meaning).

- Rhyme ( a repetition of similar sounds)

- Denotation ( the real meaning)

and connotation ( the hidden meaning)

Ok now let's talk about my exam:

I pick a song called right where you left me by taylor swift

[Verse 1]

Friends break up, friends get married

Strangers get born, strangers get buried

Trends change, rumors fly through new skies

But I'm right where you left me

Matches burn after the other

Pages turn and stick to each other

Wages earned and lessons learned

But I, I'm right where you left me

[Pre-Chorus]

Help, I'm still at the restaurant

Still sitting in a corner I haunt

Cross-legged in the dim light

They say, "What a sad sight"

I, I swear you could hear a hair pin drop

Right when I felt the moment stop

Glass shattered on the white cloth

Everybody moved on, I, I stayed there

Dust collected on my pinned-up hair

They expected me to find somewhere

Some perspective, but I sat and stared

[Chorus]

Right where you left me

You left me no, you left me no

You left me no choice but to stay here forever

You left me, you left me no, oh, you left me no

You left me no choice but to stay here forever

[Verse 2]

Did you ever hear about the girl who got frozen?

Time went on for everybody else, she won't know it

She's still twenty-three inside her fantasy

How it was supposed to be

Did you hear about the girl who lives in delusion?

Breakups happen every day, you don't have to lose it

She's still twenty-three inside her fantasy

And you're sitting in front of me

[Bridge]

At the restaurant when I was still the one you want

Cross-legged in the dim light, everything was just right

I, I could feel the mascara run

You told me that you met someone

Glass shattered on the white cloth

Everybody moved on

[Pre-Chorus]

Help, I'm still at the restaurant

Still sitting in a corner I haunt

Cross-legged in the dim light

They say, "What a sad sight"

I, I stayed there

Dust collected on my pinned-up hair

I'm sure that you got a wife out there

Kids and Christmas, but I'm unaware

'Cause I'm right where I cause no harm

Mind my business

If our love died young

I can't bear witness

And it's been so long

But if you ever think you got it wrong

[Chorus]

I'm right where

You left me

You left me no, oh, you left me no

You left me no choice but to stay here forever

You left me

You left me no, oh, you left me no

You left me no choice but to stay here forever

What i think about The meaning of the song:

Taylor Swift’s “Right Where You Left Me” is a song about heartbreak. And it is Taylor who is portraying the role of the one who is in fact heartbroken. And as the lyrics detail, she has been left completely devastated by said event, even though it has seemingly transpired a considerable amount of time ago. Or as the songstress metaphorically puts it, she is still ‘right where her ex left her’. By the aforementioned statement, she is apparently alluding to the idea that, much to her chagrin, he dumped her.  And even though she words the song as if she is physically at the same spot, such lyricism would logically be symbolic. Indeed what it is all meant to point back is to the idea that she is so emotional devastated that she has never, even to this very day, recuperated from being left behind by the man she loves. Or as Swift has poetically explained in her own words, time stopped moving for her once her sweetheart went away.
