Song dissection and

Song dissection and analysis!

Analyse your favourite (CB friendly) songs and their lyrics, themes and how they make you feel. Is there a particular reason this song resonates with you? A person, memory or experience? Does a certain (musical) phrase or beat drop just hit you in a way you can't explain? Are the lyrics just the most beautiful or relatable things ever? Or maybe it's just really chill and/or fun to jam out to!

Feel free to spill your thoughts here! I'd also be happy to give my own thoughts on any CB-appropriate songs if anybody would like to request a dissection of one. I'd also encourage everyone else to share their thoughts or own takes on these songs, too! :)

We did this in English class last year and it was so fun! If someone posts a song I'll dissect it with you!

Ooh, what about "Kerry County Fair" by Clodagh Lawlor? That's one of my favorites right now :)

"there will be no divorce" is such a beautiful song. i recommend the daytrotter version if you're not into cassette recording sounds, but both versions are just absolutely beautiful and hopeful

listening right now to "Cuando volveras" by Aventura - it's SOOOOO GOOD~

I love the way the notes seem to sort of fly up like sparks from a fire, giving off light and warmth - at least, that's the way they seem to me - and the voice is super warm and soft too. The tune seems so poignant and heartfelt, in that way that makes you happy, and the lyrics are so romantic...the whole thing seems so pretty and just lovely.

and idk, it makes me think of Mexico and what it would be like if I were a teenage girl there, listening to the latest pop hits with my friends...

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this song, @Jaybells, since you said you'd like to give your own dissections, or those of anyone else! it's always cool to see many interpretations of the same song.

Yess I love this one so much!! And you described it perfectly, it's also very bouncy and light like there's no weight like just dance no worries if that makes sense?

I also loved Kerry County Fair and There Will Be No Divorce (both versions). The latter would definitely make for interesting interpretations, I'll try to come back later with some! :)

I think A Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton is just an awesome song I really recommend! :)

Celine, I checked the lyrics for the song you mentioned and found that some of them are inappropriate for Chatterbox. So I'm not posting the name of that song or your question.
