Una de les activitats de la webquest d’anglès és analitzar les cançons treballades. Haureu de parlar de l’estil de cada una d’elles i per a poder-ho fer adequadament us caldrà parlar dels instruments de com s’utilitza la veu, del ritme, la melodia, el tempo, les dinàmiques, el caràcter i de com s’adequa la música al text. A classe de música en parlarem entre tots, i després fareu l’anàlisi de les quatre cançons individualment.

SONG 1: Imagine, John Lennon
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today…

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace…

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world…

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

SONG 2:  Knockin’on Heaven’s door, Bob Dylan
Mama, take this badge off of me
I can’t use it anymore.
It’s gettin’ dark, too dark for me to see
I feel like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door.

Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door (x4)

Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can’t shoot them anymore.
That long black cloud is comin’ down
I feel like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door.

Knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door (x4)

SONG 3: No, woman no cry, Bob Marley

No, woman, no cry, (x 4)

I remember when a we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Observing the ´ypocrites

Mingle with the good people we meet

Good friends we have, oh, good friends we have lost
Along the way

In this great future, you can’t forget your past
So dry your tears, I say

No, woman, no cry, (x2)

A little darlin´, don’t shed no tears
No, woman, no cry.

I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown,

And then Georgie would make the fire lights
Log wood burnin´ through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,

Of which I’ll share with you.
My feet is my only carriage
And so I’ve got to push on through.
Oh, while I’m gone.
Everything’s gonna be all right! (x  8)

No, woman, no cry; (x 2)
O little – O little darlin´, don’t shed no tears
No, woman, no cry.
No, woman, no cry; (x2)

One more time I got to say
O little – little darlin´, please don’t shed no tears
No, woman, no cry.

SONG 4: Luka, Suzanne Vega

My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you’ve seen me before

If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble. some kind of fight
Just don’t ask me what it was
Just don’t ask me what it was
Just don’t ask me what it was

I think it’s because I’m clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it’s because I’m crazy
I try not to act too proud

They only hit until you cry
And after that you don’t ask why
You just don’t argue anymore
You just don’t argue anymore
You just don’t argue anymore

Yes I think I’m okay
I walked into the door again
Well, if you ask that’s what I’ll say
And it’s not your business anyway
I guess I’d like to be alone
With nothing broken, nothing thrown

Just don’t ask me how I am [X3]
