Ratliff writes about this song being one of the best examples of this idea of a single note. The imitation of the church bells exemplifies a form of resistance. Every time the bell goes off, it is signifying something constantly. In this song, it is signifying a woman being "mighty low" (Ratliff 70). The church bells are demanding to be felt. The church bells are demanding the listener to be "on guard."

Ben Ratliff, the author, of the book, "Every Song Ever", defines the idea of a single note to be stubborn. He explains it to be authentic, bossy, and simple. In a busy world, it is hard to sit down and listen to the simplicities of life. Whenever we do slow down, it seems like we expect something out of this reoccurring uncomplicated music. It is wrong of us to do this. Ratliff says that "there is nothing wrong with keeping it simple" (Ratliff 72). The simplicity of music or anything is a gift. There is no one to say that you have to be uncomfortable or explicit. I do agree with Ratliff to an extent. Sometimes, It is okay to be simple. However, It is important to experience the moments of your life to make yourself grow. You must challenge yourself, but you also must keep it in perspective.

Weather portrays this idea of stubbornness as well. Similar to that continuous single note Ratliff writes about, the weather demands to be heard, seen, and understood.

“with a single note, you have authenticity. Nobody has ever played that note quite like you.”

While listening to the first 30 seconds of this song, you can hear there are two notes bouncing off of each other repeatedly. After the 30 seconds, you can hear the artists add in the slight strumming of the guitar and beat of the drum.The music seems to politely ask you to listen to the simplicity and solemness of the song. Thus, these unembellished musical compositions exemplifies Ratliff's idea of stubbornness.

“the stubborn note is bossy. It puts you on notice. It gets you out of your momentum.”
