alright everyone. I need some help/suggestions.
For my English 2600 class (Critical Intro to Lit), we are doing presentations on our choice of either a short story, poem, essay, or short dramatic work. I asked my teacher if I could use a song because, let's be honest, songs are just lyrical/musical poetry. I am trying to choose something smart, moving and just good. The presentation is to discuss/teach my reaction and interpretation of my chosen piece. I was wondering if my fab readers (the 5 or so there are ;) ) could help me out by putting what SONG has stuck with you for years and why. Who knows, I might choose yours, or it might give me the inspiration for mine. I have a few choices (which yes, I will list and no, I will not defend) but I'm not sure if those are the right ones. Anyway, comment as you will.
