Why Singers Write Songs?

Today is the same ol' Monday. Assembly was held. Choir we made a serious mistake! We forgot the lyrics to our School Song!! It was horrible! After that we had Chemistry, just for 1/2 an hour coz' its been used up by the assembly haha GOOD! Actually we had a project for Chemistry, usual we get divided girls and boys. The the girls and boys get divided to 2 each.

------------------------------
Ok that was so out of topic. Anyway this is where the orgin of the title. We were assigned to make a survey on music and understand the lyrics. Usual again, Girls vs Boys. We picked "Sweet Child O' Mine by Guns & Roses" and the boys picked "Seize The Day by Advenger Fold" (yakah? Is that correct?).


Ms Chinn asked us to go to the Language Lab. We were excited! Coz' when we saw on the screen...it was SWEET CHILD O' MINE!! Well it was the lyrics actually. Then i began to sing..Mann i love the song so much! Especially the solo guitar expertly played by Slash! We were asked to understand it. The 1st part shows that the song is about a girl that reminds him when he was young. The 2nd part he doesn't like to see her sad, and hoped his trouble would quickly pass by. Then the "Where Do We Go Now?" part means he's lost. I can't remember the other parts. Basically it means, he loves her and everything reminds him of her.


Then it was Ms Chinn's pick. It was Adam Lambert singing, i forgot the name of the song. But it's the song he sang when he got the "clean look" you know, wearing a tux, hair combed back with a silky look and no black nail polish on those fingers. The song written by Smokey. The song relates to that"guy" is not with his love girl anymore. He misses her. He tries to look for another girl but no one can replace her. And without her, he's sad, lonely and depressed.



Then it was the boys turn, "SEIZE THE DAY" it's about, don't waste your life, if u wanna do it today, do it then! 1 day and there's gonna be only 1 of that day. So live ur life. And its about a girl he loves so dearly and so much that he's asking her to die with him and be with him in this life and the after life. Wow! He must have loved her so much!


The last but...yeah~ its the last, Ms Chinn's pick again. Name of the song is "LUKA" i don't know who wrote it but is about child abuse. And the child is blameing herself and protecting her abuser. Kinda sad tho.
'''''''''''''''''''''"'''''"''''''''"'''''

So my point is singers make songs based on their life story.
