Lorde is making songs that have to do with dreams and being royal. But what shes trying make people realize that no body is made royal that you have to work to get there. For example if you want to become someone you have to work for it. Like she did. She was no one until someone herd her song. The article says that she is a teenager at least 16 when her new song hit. But she actually started singing when she was 12. And is now thinking to sing with Miley Cyrus. Of course teen poetry can be complex. Miley Cyrus lyrics are poetry because she explains of how the teenage world is write now. And how we feel about it.
ReplyDeleteThe article " Lorde, Cyrus and the Different Paths Into the Top Ten" is giving very different ideas in the music history. Not one teenager and 16 will be able to do those kinds of abilities as Lorde does. Lorde is feeling skeptical about everything I think is very normal because she is not used to having so much focus on her.My opinon on Miley Cyrus can be a poetry writer but not so much on the teen poetry, she is alittle to mature for being a poetry write. The article can be a very inspirational for any other teen that wants to be a music artist.
ReplyDeleteLorde writes her own lyrics. In the interview, they speak of her lyrics as teen poetry. Do you agree that teen poetry can be complex? Some form's of poetry are extremely hard and complex. You want to make it sound good but make it so they can understand. Do you think that Miley Cyrus's lyrics qualifies as poetry? Yes, just cause its not good does not mean its not poetry. In my opinion, everything is poetry it all just depends on who is looking at poetry as just a way others express themselves.
ReplyDeletein our article today it talks about the new teen sensation lorde. in the article It states that this new wave of music is coming and lorde it the headline. she is only sisteen years old and she is writing and selling her own music and they ask if her music is teen poetry? I feel as if it is but then again you have too factor in all the other artistes witch I think any artist excluded by age could be calassified as teen poetry.
ReplyDeleteMine didn't let me get to far it quit working but, i don't know what to say about Miley she's just trying to get into a life that she's not even really about or she's been hiding it for a long time. People don't even know who she is anymore from a good girl to some type of wannabe party girl talking about getting turned up and stuff like that. She had some many fans from little girls to older people and now with all this change up she's done she's lost some but as well gotten more. The type of thing's she sings about now.
ReplyDeleteThis 16 year old girl Lorde from New Z eland. Takes her knowledge and musical talents by writing the number one song in the country. Her song actually came out last year in November, becoming popular in New Z eland then hitting the big charts here. This song of poetry relates to people not having much and with no money. See all these people with mula in there back pockets show off there expensives and treasures. When the people who are broke and will probably never obtain these kinds off expensives and treasures. But when Miley Cyrus a country girl goes from innocent to sinful life style writes songs based on her appetite for drugs, sex, getting wasted and more. This is not real poetry, you could converse it to real poetry. But the way she writes it is not respectful and shows disrespect to those who keep good moral standards. Making Royals by Lorde the number one song and Wrecking ball by MIley Cyrus number 3.
ReplyDeleteI agree that Lorde's lyrics are like poetry,because they actually speak words. Her lyrics mean something they are saying something, they give a hidden message. Now Miley Cyrus's lyrics on the other hand, they are just random words in my opinion, they don't really say much. Its just a girl trying to be cool. Lorde on the other hand, when you listen to her songs you feel what she might have been feeling, when she was writing the song.
ReplyDeleteI agree that teen poetry can be complex. I also think that Miley's lyrics qualify as poetry. Because she's writes from her experiences. She writes poetry herself and tries to show people that not many people are royal. She went through her teenage years and knows how it feels like.
ReplyDeleteI think that Teen poetry can be complex if the teen tries to be complex with his/her writing or lyrics. If your a good writer for song then you can be complex. Some teen poetry can't complex if they start taking about dumb stuff. I don't consider Mileys lyrics as poetry not even Hip-Pop I consider it because her style just sucks.It's all about being smart with your lyrics and make like a poetry
ReplyDeleteI think her music represents as teen poetry. She knows what she's saying in her music, she feels it while she's singing it. I think Miley Cyrus's music is depressing and just heartbreaking. Her music represents how shows how hurt she's been. She shouldn't have to be stuck up on her past and sing happy music, music that can not feel so tense. Lorde is writing songs to be heard, she's doing her own persona. Not every song has to be about partying, heartbreaks, or any other type of sad music. It's good to hear something different for once.
ReplyDeleteI think that Lorde is writing poetry in her own way cause she uses exepression. But miley cyrus doesnt cause shes crazy. But if lorde did some stuff it would be complex and others. No one is like lorde when she sings she uses a keyboard that is sick.
