Kelly Clarkson - Stronger. Michelles Favourite Song



I have chosen “Kelly Clarkson - Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)” as my favorite song, because the song has a good message. It’s a song you can hear again and again and still love it.
The song has a good and fast rhythm, a good flow. I think it is a pop song, and the instruments are vocals, so she has a computer to make the sound.

The song is about you don’t have to give up, you will be stronger if you are struggling.
For e
xample; if you have an argument with someone you love very much, and then solve it, then it just made you stronger.
Kelly Brianne Clarkson was born April 24, 1982(age 29) in Fort Worth, Texas.
She is a Grammy Award-winning American pop and rock singer and songwriter.
Kelly came into prominence after she won American Idol in 2002.  


Lyrics:
You know the bed feels warmer
Sleeping here alone
You know I dream in colour
And do the things I want


You think you got the best of me
Think you had the last laugh
Bet you think that everything good is gone
Think you left me broken down
Think that I'd come running back
Baby you don't know me, cause you're dead wrong


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone


You heard that I was starting over with someone new
They told you I was moving on over you


You didn't think that I'd come back
I'd come back swinging
You tried to break me, but you see


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone


Thanks to you I got a new thing started
Thanks to you I'm not the broken hearted
Thanks to you I'm finally thinking bout me
You know in the end the day you left was just my beginning
In the end...


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone



My little girl by Tim Mcgraw - Nathalies Favourite Song




My favorite song.

Tim McGraw: My little girl.
The Music is country. Country is classic by Tim Mcgraw. There guitar, piano, violins, drums.

Tim Mcgraw is born 1 may 1967, he’s an American country singer. He is married to country singer Faith Hill and his father is the former baseball player Tug Mcgraw. He has won 3 Grammys, 14 Academy of Country Music awards, 11 Country Music Association (CMA) awards, 10 American Music Awards and 3 People’s Choice Awards. His birth name is Samuel Timothy McGraw.
The song is about a father who talks about his daughter. What he feels for her. He says to her that to him she will always be his little girl. He tells her that no man will be good enough for her. The song is about the father daughter bond. The meaning about the song is that the only man that will never hurt you is your father and that the bond between a father and his daughter can never be broken.

I like this song so much because it reminds me of me and my father. I know that to him no man will be good enough for me. The song makes me remember the times with my father when I was little, and I know it is hard for him to see his little girl grow up. The meaning of the song to me is that when I get the feeling of that I don’t want to grow up I listen to the song and I feel like it’s my father that sings it to me or he is feeling like the song. Many of the thinks in the song I can feel my father say or think. I listen to the song because it make me feel good and not wonder what my father thinks. I have always been his little girl and about a year I’m not a little girl anymore. First time I heard the song was before my father was going to get operated and it made me cry. Sometimes it can still make me cry.

Lyrics
Verse 1:
Gotta hold on easy as I let you go.
Gonna tell you how much I love you, though you think you already know.
I remember I thought you looked like an angel wrapped in pink so soft and warm.
You've had me wrapped around your finger since the day you were born.


Chorus:

You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Go on, take on this whole world.
But to me you know you'll always be, my little girl.

Verse 2:

When you were in trouble that crooked little smile could melt my heart of stone.
Now look at you, I've turned around and you've almost grown.
Sometimes you're asleep I whisper "I Love You!" in the moonlight at your door.
As I walk away, I hear you say, "Daddy Love You More!".

Chorus:

You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Go on, take on this whole world.
But to me you know you'll always be, my little girl.

Verse 3:

Someday, some boy will come and ask me for your hand.
But I won't say "yes" to him unless I know, he's the half
that makes you whole, he has a poet's soul, and the heart of a man's man.
I know he'll say that he's in love.
But between you and me. He won't be good enough!

Chorus:

You're beautiful baby from the outside in.
Chase your dreams but always know the road that'll lead you home again.
Go on, take on this whole world.
But to me you know you'll always be, my little girl.





Eminem - Mockingbird - Emmas Favourite Song



The genre is Hip-Hop, rap and pop i think. The Instruments in the song is a piano and an electric guitar.
Eminem is an American rapper. His real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers, and he is born in October 17, 1972. His birth place is Kansas City, Missouri, USA. The Hair color is bleached blonde and the eye color is blue. Eminem is known as one of the most skillful, and controversial rappers in the industry, becoming a crossover sensation with his debut single ‘’My Name Is’’.
He's talking about his family. It's a song for his daughter, Hailie, saying that one day, the family will get back together. They will have all the fun, happy times that they had before all the drama happened. Also, he's saying that he'll be there for Hailie, through the good and bad times. Plus, he's saying that both parents mom and dad, will love her forever, and also the sister Laney.
I think it’s a very good and a very beautiful song. When I listen to the song, I think about how good connection I have with my parents, and how important it is, that you are doing well together. I listen to it, if I have problems with my parents, or if I just want to hear some rap music. It’s a song that means a lot to me, because I've heard it since it was created in 2009, and has many memories about the song, so it’s my favourite song forever. And then I just think that Eminem writes really good song lyrics.

Lyrics:
Yeah
I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
What you crying about?
You got me
Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
Well I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life that I never had
I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Cause you're scared, I ain't there?
Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more crying, wipe them tears
Daddy's here, no more nightmares
We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it
Laney uncles crazy, ain't he?
Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
We're all we got in this world
When it spins, when it swirls
When it whirls, when it twirls
Two little beautiful girls
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze
I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the news
I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
All the things growing up his daddy that he had to see
Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
But things have gotten so bad between us
I don't see us ever being together ever again
Like we used to be when we were teenagers
But then of course everything always happens for a reason
I guess it was never meant to be
But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is
But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream
[Chorus]
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We fear how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise momma's gon' be alright
It's funny
I remember back one year when daddy had no money
Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
And stuck 'em under the tree and said some of 'em were from me
Cause daddy couldn't buy 'em
I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying
Cause daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
And at the time every house that we lived in
Either kept getting broken into and robbed
Or shot up on the block and your mom was saving money for you in a jar
Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
Almost had a thousand dollars til someone broke in and stole it
And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart
And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved back
On the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom apartment
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD and met Dr. Dre
And flew you and momma out to see me
But daddy had to work, you and momma had to leave me
Then you started seeing daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it
And you and Laney were to young to understand it
Papa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a habit
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand
Cause all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud
Now I'm sitting in this empty house, just reminiscing
Lookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're sisters now
Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
Laney I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here
I like the sound of that, yeah
It's got a ring to it don't it?
Shh, momma's only gone for the moment
[Chorus]
And if you ask me too
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
I'mma give you the world
I'mma buy a diamond ring for you
I'mma sing for you
I'll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
I'mma break that birdies neck
I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
And make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (haha)

Poem about anorexia

Made by Nathalie, Sean, Julie, Emma and Christoffer.
Before you came into my life I was a happy person. I was happy with myself. I was being bullying in school. That made me think of what I eat. My parent did not help to stop the bullying and they did not want to talk about it. They’ll shot me out and did not speak to me about school. They only talk to me about what happened at home. I was starting to feel alone no one was talking with me at school and at home I was always in my room looking at a mirror  to find some fat ore cry in a pillow and listen to some music.

You made me special, and complete. When I did not eat all day I was happy. I looked me in the mirror every day and weight me every day. When I looked in the mirror I saw a very fat girl. If I could get away with it, I will not eat for four days, but my teacher always catches me at day tree and forced me to eat some food. At home my parents did not notice, they were busy with their work. You made me a person who did not like what she saw and made me think that I should stop eating. You made me have someone talk to me in my head, to tell me what I should do, and sometimes you yell at me for eating.

Now I am at the hospital, because I don’t eat, the doctors had to put something in my arm so I get nourishment enough. I’m tired of the way you control my life now. I had a good life and you put me in this situation. I want my old life back. You made me hate myself and if I let you rule anymore I will die, I am now fighting with the voices. You made my hair fall out and my muscle go crazy. Now I want to be normal again and I want to be happy again.

Poem about anorexia



Before you came into my life, I was happy.
Before you came into my life, I was a nice girl, and pretty good at sports.
Before you came into my life, I had real friends

 You made me, throw up, take laxatives, and always be cold and angry and hungry.
You made me, become anemic, you ruined my immune system.
You made me, think I was fat and ugly

Now I learning to trust people again
Now I learnt to eat normally again
Now I don’t want to throw up anymore 
By Charlotte, Amanda, Thomas, Camilla K, Linette
