LYRICS
Oh, no, did I get too close?
Oh, did I almost see what's really on the inside?
All your insecurities
All the dirty laundry
Never made me blink one time

Unconditional, unconditionally
I will love you unconditionally
There is no fear now
Let go and just be free
I will love you unconditionally

Come just as you are to me
Don't need apologies
Know that you are worthy

I'll take your bad days with your good
Walk through the storm, I would
I do it all because I love you
I love you

Unconditional, unconditionally
I will love you unconditionally
There is no fear now
Let go and just be free
I will love you unconditionally

So open up your heart and just let it begin
Open up your heart and just let it begin
Open up your heart and just let it begin
Open up your heart

Acceptance is the key to be
To be truly free
Will you do the same for me?

Unconditional, unconditionally
I will love you unconditionally, yeah
And there is no fear now
Let go and just be free
'Cause I will love you unconditionally, oh, yeah

I will love you (unconditionally)
I will love you
I will love you unconditionally

GROUP'S OPINION:
We chose this song because the refrain remembers the unconditional love beetween Romeo and Juliet. their love was forbidden by their family.

PERSONAL OPINIONS
Melissa: This song is about an unconditional love, Katy Perry sings:            "Come just as you are to me, don't need apologies" and the refrain says: "I will love you unconditionally". This reminds  me of the unconditional love beetween Romeo and Juliet. Unconditionally because they became lovers in spite the fact their family were fighting each other.
Ludovica: To me Romeo and Juliet would do anything to be together, also go against their own families as says the song: "I do it all because I love you".
Melisa: This expression "Walk through this storm I would" indicates the quarrels between the families that do not condition their love.
Anna Cremona: "Let go and just be free" indicates that Romeo and Juliet love each other despite the other person's faults.
Anna Carli: Acceptance is the key to be
To be truly free
He says that to be free you have to accept life as it is. This is what Romeo and Juliet want to be free to marry, whitout thinking about the idea of families.
Beatrice: "Come just as you are to me
Don't need apologies
Know that you are a worthy"
This phrase means that the two lovers didn't care about anything other than the fact of loving and loving each other. So I understand that Juliet trusted Romeo and Romeo trusted Juliet from the phrase "Come to me as you are".

(Sheena) I really like this song because it expresses the true sense of love.  I would love hear these words from the man i love. It is very nice to hear these words by a man. the singer makes the woman feel loved. I would love to be in love and here these follwing words:"That you'll always be togethere" or "You tell her that she's really wanted" or "You tell her that she's the one " I would like to hear these sentence from a person i will love in the future.

(Giorgia) This song talks about true love, the singer ask questions asking "You've never loved a woman"to those who listen to the song and makes it clear what it relly means to love a women. He says that to love a women you have to understand her, know her and treat her well. The author wants to make it clear what it really means to love.

(Marta) This song is written as a poem and it represents the vision of love that the author ( Bryan Adams) perceives of a woman. So that you have to love her, demonstrate that you love her and make her fell at comfort with him. The song for me is very beatiful and I think it can give a picture of how a man should treat his woman.

(Gurleen) This song represents the love that a man brings to the beloved woman. Making her feel happy and desired and not inferior.  The song for me is very beatiful.

(Giulia) I really like this song becasuse it speaks of tru love, and it is always contemporary, then it is very beatiful because it coveys many emotions,  different depending on who listens to it.

Romeo & Juliet - Dire Straits
This song tells the story of Romeo and juliet In a modern key but in the version of the band the girl does not return the love of the boy. It is sung by Dire Straits, a British band.

This song is defined as one of the songs that represents Dire Straits the most.
A curiosity: this song is inspired by the break up of the leader of the band with his girlfriend.

Sara: I suggested this song because a week before the assignment, my mom showed me her old music tapes and one of the of those was of the Dire Straits and she rocommended me this two song: "Tunnel of love" and "Romeo & Juliet"

Chaimaa: I really like this song because I've always liked the love story between Romeo and Juliet and I like how Dire straits rewrot the whole story from another point of view. I love how Juliet doesn't return the feelings of Romeo and how he tries to make her change her mind. I like the Juliet that doesen't fall into the flattery of Romeo.

Dilman: I like the video of the song, especially the part when I see Romeo watching Juliet from a hole on the wall that he cannot reach and when the light that illuminates Juliet   is turned off. Romeo thronws himself off the wall, then Juliet's light is turned off then, it is turned on again and off again. (A reference to the death of Romeo & Juliet). For me this song conveys the idea of true love and the death of both lovers is caused by fate

Alice:  "I like this song because unlike other songs or plays this one keeps the plot as the original one from the novel, I think it can be a smart way to learn the story of Romeo and Juliet without actually spending hours looking up articles"

TESTO CANZONE:
"Romeo & Juliet" -by straits

A lovestruck Romeo sang the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"

Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack"
He's underneath the window, she's singing, "Hey, la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"

"Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet, and you exploded into my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"

Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

When you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah
Now you just say "Oh, Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him"

"Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry
You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die'
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"

I can't do the talks like they talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'll do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat, the bad company
All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Julie, I'd do the stars with you any time

"Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die'
There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"

And a lovestruck Romeo, he sang the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Find a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
He says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"

"You and me, babe, how about it?"

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (2x)

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby, do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me

"Merry Christmas, " I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you, " I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away (you gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (special)(2x)

Oh
Oh, oh, baby

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Ooh, ooh, now I've found a real love
You'll never fool me again

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away (you gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (special)(2x)

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart (I gave you mine)
A man under cover, but you tore him apart
Maybe next year, we'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special (special!)
So long!

We chose it because we are near Christmas and because it’s a love song.
The song talks about this boy that got cheated on his last Christmas.
The first underlined lyrics are the main lyrics and this lines talk about the boy remembering how he confessed his love last year and how the next day the girl shoved him away and went to someone else and then this year he thought of confessing his love to someone special.
What you see in the video is that the boy is quite hurt; in the present year they all go on a trip like always and they try their best to avoid each other.
Like in the verse “I keep my distance but you still catch my eye” or the verse “I’m hiding from you and your soul of ice” in little words he’s heartbroken and so he moves on and give his heart to someone special.

Comparison between the song "Heather" and Shakspeare's sonnet (Lucrezia, Giulia,Chiara,Siria,Gaia)

# data[].attributes.body
I still remember the third of December, me in your sweater
You said it looked better on me than it did you
Only if you knew how much I liked you
But I watch your eyes as she

Walks by
What a sight for sore eyes
Brighter than the blue sky
She's got you mesmerized while I die

Why would you ever kiss me?
I'm not even half as pretty
You gave her your sweater, it's just polyester
But you like her better
Wish I were Heather

Watch as she stands with her, holding your hand
Put your arm 'round her shoulder, now I'm getting colder
But how could I hate her? She's such an angel
But then again, kinda wish she were dead as she

Walks by
What a sight for sore eyes
Brighter than the blue sky
She's got you mesmerized while I die

Why would you ever kiss me?
I'm not even half as pretty
You gave her your sweater, it's just polyester
But you like her better
I wish I were Heather

I wish I were Heather
(Oh, oh)

Wish I were Heather

Why would you ever kiss me?
I'm not even half as pretty
You gave her your sweater, it's just polyester

But you like her better
Wish I were...

We chose this song by Conan Gray because as in shacspeare's sonnet all the negative sides of the person you love are explained.

we thought this is to not admit the love you feel

In the song the girl feels betrayed by the boy and comes to want to be heather.

in the sonnet at the end the two protagonists die, in the song the girl suffers a lot and it is as if she were dying.

Lucrezia: in my opinion this song is right because there are all the feelings that you can feel at the end of every love story, a bit like in the sonnet. Listening to it I always get excited, even if I can’t say that I have ever experienced the same feelings that she feels.
Giulia: Heather is one of my favorite song, . Actually I like the lyrics and I think that Conan Gray was very good at putting such strong feelings in a song.
Siria: I love this song because I feel the pain of the girl as she writes, it is not for al singers to  transmit the pain they feel
Gaia: this song is one of the most important to me because I see myself a little in the girl's shoes Who wants to be Heather. I  think this song makes us think a lot about how much the end of a relationship can hurt

This song decribes what love really is, Example:
" When you find yourself layin' helpless in her arms. You know really love a woman"
It is true, if you are in somenoe's arms and you are happy and relaxed you fell good.
A person who loves another knows how be touched and especially if you see your unborn children in their eyes, that is beatiful.

# data[].attributes.body
To really love a woman
To understand her
You gotta know her deep inside
Hear every thought
See every dream
And give her wings when she wants to fly
Then when you find yourself lyin′ helpless in her arms
You know you really love a woman
When you love a woman
You tell her that she's really wanted
When you love a woman
You tell her that she′s the one
She needs somebody
To tell her that it's gonna last forever
So tell me have you ever really
Really, really ever loved a woman?
To really love a woman
To let her hold you
'Til you know how she needs to be touched
You′ve gotta breathe her
Really taste her
′Til you can feel her in your blood
And when you can see your unborn children in her eyes
You know you really love a woman
When you love a woman
You tell her that she's really wanted
When you love a woman
You tell her that she′s the one
Cause she needs somebody
To tell her that you'll always be together

WHAT DO WE FIND ABOUT THE STORY?

Romeo and Juliet (same names)

they are both young (Romeo was 17 and Juliet 13)

the BALCONY (so famous in Verona!!!)

THE PARTY (Romeo and Juliet met at a party)

Families are in fight (Stay away from Juiet!)

2 noble families (prince and princess)

They want to stay together, run away

LOVE is stronger than everything

BUT TAYLOR SWIFT GAVE THE STORY A HAPPY ENDING

# data[].attributes.body
Love Story

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standin' there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello"
Little did I know

That you were Romeo, you were throwin' pebbles
And my daddysaid, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was cryin' on the staircase
Beggin' you, "Please don't go, " and I said

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while, oh oh

'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me
I was beggin' you, "Please don't go, " and I said

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Romeo, save me, they're tryna tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Oh, oh

I got tired of waiting
Wonderin' if you were ever comin' around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said

Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you, but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
And said, "Marry me, Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you

WE STARTED FROM A BBC suggestion

William Shakespeare's plays and sonnets have been a rich source of inspiration to other art forms for hundreds of years, and Rock and Pop music is no exception - perhaps no surprise as music featured so heavily in his own work.
Whether it's direct quotes, themes, characters or the Bard himself, mentions crop up in lyrics and titles from acts as varied as The Beatles to Taylor Swift. We've scratched the surface by pulling out some of our favourites...

MY LOVER'S EYES

Her eyes are not like the sun; my lover's eyes are not l ike the light of the sun

Her lips are less red than the coral

Her skin i s not as white as snow; her breasts are dun but snow is white; the colour of her skin is far from the white of the snow

It looks like black wires grew on her head; her hair is as black wires;

I can' t see the colour of damasked roses, which are red and white, on her cheeks

There are perfumes which are delightful

Her breath doesn't smell like those delightful perfumes

Even though I love her talking

I prefer listening to the sound of music

When she walks she treads on the ground

Despite all that, despite all flaws, I feel my lover is rare, she is a special woman,

exactly as those women who have received false comparisons by other poets

We think that in this sonnet there are some positive and some negative opinions about women.
He wants to express his love because many people look only the aesthetic side and ignore the part inside, but he looks above all at the interior part.
Infact basically he loves her!

# data[].attributes.body
We think that his is a true love, because he can love her despite her defects.
In fact during all the poem he gives importance to her defects and not her qualities.
We think that this is not a common love and that he is not a common lover.
In relation with the sentence "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder" we think hat he has the eyes to see her beauty, because he likes her.

We think he loves her in spite of the fact she has a lot of flaws like: "If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head"; "And in some perfumes is there more delight than in the breath that from my mistress reeks"; "I love to hear her speak, yet well I know that music hath a far more pleasing sound."
So she is not perfect.

We think that he loves her but he won't admit it

We Believe that what is beautiful is not beautiful but what you like it’s beautiful.

This sentence makes you understand that beauty can change according to the people who see it and we also think that school should teach these to children since they are little.

We think that he loves her, but doesn’t want any man to know how beautiful she is so he describes her in a bad way.
Like when he said, “I have seen roses damasked, red and white, but no such roses see i in her cheeks;”
Here we think that he is trying say that she is pale, in a bad way, so he can keep man away from his woman; but who knows ???''' maybe her cheeks are cheery colored.

ORIGINAL TEXT

SONNET 130 better known as

My mistress' eyes

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;

Coral is far more red than her lips' red;

If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;

If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head;

I have seen roses damasked, red and white,

But no such roses see I in her cheeks;

And in some perfumes is there more delight

Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.

I love to hear her speak, yet well I know

That music hath a far more pleasing sound.

I grant I never saw a goddess go;

My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground.

And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare

As any she belied with false compare
