In a telescope lens Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 For an assignment for my english class we have to write a paper discussing how a song relates to the novel the The Catcher in the Rye. Naturally, I'm picking a Coldplay song and would love the help! Here's what the assignment says: Find (or create your own) song lyrics, a poem, a cartoon, or a news article that relates to your reading. Write an explanation of how your selection reflects some aspect of the literature. (Does it remind you of a character, a theme, or an event?) Support with evidence from the selected item and with evidence from the literature. Yes, you will need to use direct quotations and paraphrasing when providing your evidence. Be sure to include a copy of your selection with your paper. My first thought was violet hill. I think my friend is going to try and use everything's not lost, and I told her if she did she needs to bring in live 2003 and make the class watch it for her presentation :wacky: We also thought of some others that might work too: in my place, the scientist, lost!, and swallowed in the sea. And if you have any bad ass ideas on how I can present the song that would be awesome! :D Thanks for the helps guys!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jknc Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 I think that A Rush of Blood to the Head would be an awesome song to use for The Catcher in the Rye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coldplaying@Hogwarts Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Rush of Blood To The Head, definitely. But I also think Lost! could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graceberryman Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 This reminds me of when I had to pick two love songs for A Midsummer Night's Dream and describe what they have to do with a relationship in the story. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenflor Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 it's been a while since I've read Catcher, but as I remember it, Holden was one f'd up little guy. AROBTTH is a great choice, I think. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Bloom Blaum Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 This reminds me of when I had to pick two love songs for A Midsummer Night's Dream and describe what they have to do with a relationship in the story. :lol: Twisted Logic? "You go backwards... but then! You go forwards again!" Bahaha. Seems quite suitable for the craziness that is the love square in Midsummer Night's. :lol: Anyway: yeah. I agree with everyone saying A Rush of Blood to the Head! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In a telescope lens Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 since you agree on a rush of blood to the head, can you guys give me some examples from book and music that i could put in it? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
