Select a song of your choice and write a literary analysis explaining the purpose and effect of using these particular literary devices in your chosen song.

Song Lyric Analysis Project

Using your newfound knowledge of literary devices, you will explore your favorite songs in order to identify and explain how they are utilized.

Directions:

Select a song (must be school appropriate) of your choice. You must get your song approved by the teacher. The song must have a minimum of 5-7 literary devices.

Although you may duplicate the type of literary device, you may not duplicate phrases or lines in your song for your examples and as part of your analysis.

Then you will write a literary analysis explaining the purpose and effect of using these particular literary devices in your chosen song.

Make sure that your analysis follows proper MLA guidelines.

In your main paragraph you will introduce the song, author, and touch on the meaning of the title. You will then explain the song and discuss the theme and tone of the piece.
