2 Very Different Popular Songs
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that discusses 2 different popular songs. The term "popular music" encompasses a huge range of music, written for a variety of purposes for use by a broad range of performers and intended for an equally varied audience. At what might possibly be considered as opposed ends of the popular music spectrum are Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff," which incorporates Caribbean rhythms into a song that expresses the frustration of marginalized people against the often arbitrary power of authority, and Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! from their 1943 musical. One song is an underground protest against authority; the other is a song meant to celebrate the mythos of mainstream culture. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
