All elements of the song come together cohesively to create a fun and impactful listening experience for the audience.
3. O The song narrative is about a relationship. The female is saying
“are you diggin’ on me, I’m diggin’ on you now” which
suggests that when you “dig” someone you are into them.
However she is strong minded as the lyrics suggest that she
needs clarification that he will be faithful. For example the lyrics
say: “And you promise me faithfully, That you will be my
only man”. By then end of the song she is saying “Oh this
love is super”. This reveals her happiness in the relationship
she has with the person.
O The story in my own words, is bringing up an area of females
wanting power. She is strong minded and says that if he digs
her, he has to prove that. For example it states in the lyrics that
she needs a promise faithfully that he will be her only man. She
has strong feelings for this person and feels proud to walk down
the street with him.
4. O I can identify the meaning through the music genre, artist and
genre too.
O Joss Stone has a big powerful voice she does hold the power in
the lyrics and makes what she's saying believable as she sings
with real meaning. The genre is soul and in soul they talk about
issues and are strong minded. Her voice has a harsh tone but
fits so well with her sense of style and the idea of the song.
O The song does conform to mainstream songs as there is a
formulaic structure to the verses and chorus and instrumental.
O Words repeated in the lyrics include of:
“diggin’”, “love”, “minute” and “you” as well as “super duper”.
This suggests that the song is about someone in particular and
the name of the song is used throughout.
5. O The song all “fits” together as the lyrics, style, visuals and genre
all work nicely together and create a fun and powerful song.
O The music has an impact on the audience. It makes you feel
happy and want to sing along as the lyrics are easy to pick up
and remember.
O The instruments used also blend together really well creating a
great sound against Joss Stone’s powerful voice. I like the use
of the guitar, drums and tambourine. It is an unusual sound but
I really love it.
O The lyrics are emphasized in her voice as when, for
example, she says “are you diggin’ on me” she says it with
power in her voice which makes you believe her more.
