Understanding Song Lyrics

 

Understanding Song Lyrics

The moral value of the song Count on Me by Bruno Mars is that we have to help our friends who are in need, because they will do the same when we are in trouble. As quoted “You can count on me…And I know when I need it I can count on you…”

Pembahasan

Lagu berjudul Count on Me dari Bruno Mars mengisahkan tentang persahabatan yang saling mendukung dan membantu di kala satu pihak memiliki masalah/beban, maka pihak lainnya hadir untuk memberi dukungan dan bantuan.

Istilah count on [someone] adalah sebuah idiom yang artinya to depend on someone to do what you want or expect them to do for you.

Sehingga konteks idiom tersebut pada lirik lagu ini adalah, “kamu dapat mengandalkan aku”. Namun pada sisi lain lirik, istilah count on juga digunakan dalam artian harfiah yang artinya menghitung dalam … (waktu). Contohnya adalah pada lirik “You can count on me like one two three, I’ll be there” yang mengistilahkan bahwa dalam hitungan 3 detik aku akan datang menemui kamu (jika dibutuhkan kehadirannya)


Fungsi sosial sebuah lagu adalah untuk menyampaikan pesan atau sebagai media komunikasi kepada pendengar lagunya. Dengan demikian, lagu juga dapat digunakan untuk memengaruhi, mendapat dukungan, membujuk, menggugah emosi, menanamkan sikap atau nilai tertentu kepada pendengarnya. Sekarang, simaklah video dari gurumu dan isilah titik-titik lirik lagu di bawah ini sambil mendengarkan lagu sebagai latihan listening. Tentu kamu bisa juga ikut bernyanyi atau mengajak teman atau keluarga di rumah untuk bernyanyi bersama. 


IF AIN’T GOT YOU

 BY ALICIA KEYS

 Some people live for the fortune

Some people live just for the fame

Some people live just for to play the game

Some people think that the physical things define what’s within

 

And I’ve been there before

 But that life’s a bore

 So full of the superficial

 Some people want it all

 But I don’t want nothing at all

If I ain’t got you baby

 

Some people want diamond rings

Some just want everything

But everything means nothing

If I ain’t got you

Some peole search for a fountain

 That promise forever young

Some people need three dozen roses

And that’s the only way to prove you love them

Hand me the world on a silver platter

And what good would it be?

 

With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me

If ain’t got you with me baby

Nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing

If ain’t got you with me baby

 

  Questions

1. Do you know the song lyrics above?

Some people live just for the fame

Some people live just for to play the game

Some people think that the physical things define what’s within

And I’ve been there before

But that life’s a bore


So full of the superficial

 Some people want it all

 But I don’t want nothing at all

If I ain’t got you baby

Some people want diamond rings

Some just want everything

But everything means nothing

If I ain’t got you

Some peole search for a fountain


That promise forever young

Some people need three dozen roses

And that’s the only way to prove you love them

Hand me the world on a silver platter

And what good would it be?


With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me

If ain’t got you with me baby

Nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing

If ain’t got you with me baby

Songs for A Dying Planet

Viva Forever

Song by: Spice Girls


Do you still remember

How we used to be

Felling together, believe in whatever

My love has said to me

Young love in the sun

Felt like my savior, my spirit I gave ya

We’d only just begun


Hasta Manana,

Always be mine

Viva forever, I’ll be waiting

Everlasting, like the sun

Live forever,

For the moment

Ever searching for the one

Yes I still remember,

Every whispered word

The touch of your skin, giving life from within

Like a love song that I’d heard

Slipping through out fingers,

Like the sands of time

Promise made, every memory saved

Has reflections in my mind


Hasta Manana,

Always be mine

Was it just a dream

Feelings unfold, they will never be sold

And the secret’s safe with me

Always be mine

Outdoors

Song by: Jason Mraz


All day I’ve been inside

And I’ve got the feeling

And underneath the ceiling

I feel a bit off track

And I’m trying to get back

Back in the cool, cool air where the sun is shinning

Nothing’s going to stop me

It’s all in the timing

It’s finally again my turn

It’s time to return

‘Cause I won’t stay inside no more

No more

I can’t wait to go

Outdoors

Well open up your door and be like me

Open up your door and then breathe free

And look at all the beauty you’ll feel

Loved, loved, loved, loved

Listen to the music of the wind and the brides sing

We’re just one big family

And all of nature deserves to be

Loved, loved, loved, loved,

Loved

Open up your door and then breathe free

By Michael Jackson

When the world must come together as one

There are people dying

And it's time to lend a hand to life

The greatest gift of all

We can't go on pretending day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We all are a part of God's great big family
And the truth, you know,
Love is all we need

[Chorus:]
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making

We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
