  16. Sound of Silence- Lyrics • Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come with talk with you againBecause a vision softly creeping, left its seeds while I was sleepingAnd the vision that was planted in my brain, still remainsWithin the sound of silenceIn restless dreams I walked alone, narrow streets of cobblestoneNeath the halo of a streetlamp, I turned my collar to the cold and dampWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light, split the nightAnd touched the sound of silenceAnd in the naked light I saw, ten thousand people, maybe morePeople talking without speaking, people hearing without listeningPeople writing songs that voices never shared, and no one daredTo stir the sound of silenceFool, said I, you do not know, silence, like a cancer, growsHear my words and I might teach you, take my arms then I might reach youBut my words, like silent raindrops fell, and echoed in the wells of silenceAnd the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they'd madeAnd the sign flashed its warning in the words that it was formingAnd the sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway wallsAnd tenement halls, and whispered in the sounds of silence

  22. Your Protest Song • Examples, Directions, Groups, and Pre-writing

  23. What is a protest song? • A song where there is “an expression or declaration of objection, disapproval, or dissent, often in opposition to something a person is powerless to prevent or avoid.”

  24. Tupac - Changes How many things can you name that Tupac protests in his song, Changes? Name at least 3 things.

  25. Tupac - Changes Come on come onI see no changes. Wake up in the morning and I ask myself,"Is life worth living? Should I blast myself?"I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black.My stomach hurts, so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch.Cops give a damn about a negro? Pull the trigger, kill a nigga, he's a hero.Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares? One less hungry mouth on the welfare.First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal to brothers.Give 'em guns, step back, and watch 'em kill each other."It's time to fight back", that's what Huey said.2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead.I got love for my brother, but we can never go nowhereunless we share with each other. We gotta start makin' changes.Learn to see me as a brother 'stead of 2 distant strangers.And that's how it's supposed to be.How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?I'd love to go back to when we played as kidsbut things changed, and that's the way it is[Bridge w/ changing ad libs]Come on come onThat's just the way it isThings'll never be the sameThat's just the way it isaww yeah[Repeat]I see no changes. All I see is racist faces.Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races we under.I wonder what it takes to make this one better place...let's erase the wasted.Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right.'Cause both black and white are smokin' crack tonight.And only time we chill is when we kill each other.It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other.And although it seems heaven sent,we ain't ready to see a black President, uhh.It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact...the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks. But some things will never change.Try to show another way, but they stayin' in the dope game.Now tell me what's a mother to do?Bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you.You gotta operate the easy way."I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way.Sellin' crack to the kids. "I gotta get paid,"Well hey, well that's the way it is.[Bridge][Talking:]We gotta make a change...It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we liveand let's change the way we treat each other.You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to dowhat we gotta do, to survive.And still I see no changes. Can't a brother get a little peace?There's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East.Instead of war on poverty,they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me.And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do.But now I'm back with the facts givin' 'em back to you.Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp smack you up.You gotta learn to hold ya own.They get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone.But tell the cops they can't touch this.I don't trust this, when they try to rush I bust this.That's the sound of my tune. You say it ain't cool, but mama didn't raise no fool.And as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped & I never get to lay back.'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs.Some buck that I roughed up way back... comin' back after all these years.Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat. That's the way it is. uhh[Bridge 'til fade:]Some things will never change

  26. Examples: Bob Dylan’s Blowing in the Wind • How many roads must a man walk downBefore you call him a man • How many seas must the white dove sailBefore she sleeps in the sand • Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs flyBefore they are forever banned • Yes, and how many years can a mountain existBefore it washed to the sea • Yes, and how many years can some people existBefore they're allowed to be free • Yes, and how many times can a man turn his headAnd pretend that he just doesn't see • Yes, and how many ears must one man haveBefore he can hear people cry

  27. Examples: Edwin Starr’s War • Oh no-there's got to be a better waySay it againThere's got to be a better way-yeahWhat is it good for?*War has caused unrestAmong the younger generationInduction then destructionWho wants to die?War-huhWhat is it good for?Absolutely nothingSay it againWar-huhWhat is it good for?Absolutely nothingYeahWar-I despise'Cos it means destructionOf innocent livesWar means tearsTo thousands of mothers howWhen their sons go off to fightAnd lose their lives

  28. Divide into Groups Get into your groups or 3-4, if you take to long deciding I will pick groups for you! • Protest Topic (Do you want to be funny or serious?) • Choose an option • 1. Create your own music, beat and lyrics • 2. Use an existing instrumental with new lyrics you create • 3. Use existing lyrics from a protest song with new music and beat you create

  29. Written Format • You must “outline” or script your song. • Your song MUST have the following: • introduction • two verses, a chorus that repeats at least 3x’s • conclusion • In order to perform this song, all members must know the tempo, rhythm patterns, and lyrics. etc. Write this on your outline somewhere! • It must be at least two minutes long. • You must “check” your song with me.

  30. Exit Slip½ sheet of paper Name the purpose: Ceremonial, Recreational, Artistic Expression • It is the 4th of July and you are at the parade in downtown Lexington. A marching band comes up the street playing the Star Spangled Banner. What purpose does this serve? • You get to the club and the scene is straight up crunk. You get ready to drop it like it is HOT, get yo’ freak on, and twerk until it hurts. What purpose does this music serve? • In the words of the immortal Billy Ray Cyrus, “Don’t tell my heart, my achy breaky heart, I just don’t think it’d understand. And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart, it might blow up and kill this man,” what purpose of music does this serve? • Does music have to be just have one purpose? Give the title of a song you know and explain how it fills two purposes of music.

  31. What is the topic being protested here? • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ay9BWM8lwOA

  32. General Rules • Everyone must participate. • Lyrics should be classroom appropriate. • You don’t have to sing, but there must be a rhythm. • Additional Options: • *Option One: Use a karaoke track to get your music and you make up new lyrics. • *Option Two: You use lyrics from a protest song and come up with your own beat. • *Option Three: You create a protest song using your own lyrics and your own beat.

  33. How to Write Your Song • Choose a social issue or school problem about which you have strong feelings. Select a recorder to write down descriptive phrases as you discuss the issue. • Topics used in the past: • Tardy Policy • School Lunch • Problems that are facing teenagers • School Work • Gossiping

  34. Where to start • Brainstorm about the issue/problem and discuss it. • Is it something that others feel strongly about? • What are the causes of the problem? Discuss a detailed example of the problem. • Who is being affected by it? • Is it something that is sporadic or ongoing? • Is it decreasing or escalating? • Is the effect short or long term? • What are the distinctive characteristics of the issue? • What is it that makes people care about the problem? • What are some possible solutions or recommended actions? Remember: The best songs are those that can appeal to the largest amount of people!

  35. What to say? • When you have sufficiently explored the issue, look over the list of descriptive phrases collected by the recorder. • Highlight the key words and phrases that you feel capture the essence of the issue or problem.

  36. Taking the Words and Giving Your Song Form: • Establish the number of lines for a verse or stanza and the number of beats to a line. • For example, a verse could be four lines with four beats to a line. • Decide the rhyme scheme. Which lines will rhyme? • Will you use this same verse structure and rhyme scheme throughout the song or vary them?

  37. What are your lyrics? • Referring to your list of key words and phrases, begin to draft the lyrics. • Keep in mind that your lyrics should describe the issue and communicate a strong point of view. • You may want to include humor or satire in your lyrics to add interest. • Review your draft with a critical eye and revise your lyrics as needed. • When the lyrics are set, notate the rhythm of the words.

  38. Adding the music… • Using the notation, create a melody or musical accompaniment that conveys and enhances the meaning of the lyrics. • Would your song be best in a major key or a minor key? • What tempo would fit? • Are there places where you want to change the dynamics? • Be sure that the notes of the melody match the rhythm of the lyrics.

  39. Make it your own! • Now add musical accompaniment that further enhances your message. • You may use traditional instruments, percussion instruments, and/or found instruments. • Some GREAT additions to songs in the pasts: • Beating on the desk (creating a beat) • Snapping • Foot Stomping • Very simple, but very good

  40. Your “To Do” List • Draft Lyrics with the following noted: • Melody and beat must be notated • Make several copies • This is due to me at the end of class. • Practice performing your protest song.
