Oh No! - Marina by Margaret Burrows - Grade 11 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g Rhetorical Analysis - Composition 1 | Maggie Burrows en-us 2022-11-28 14:54:42 UTC 2025-11-02 04:42:12 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4a5.png Logos Analysis | Lyrics 1 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400361943 Logos is not the main appeal used in this song, but it does add fact to some lyrics. In the song when she says, “TV taught me how to feel. Now real life has no appeal.”, it talks about the effects of media. It's talking about how TV and media has changed how people think and feel about different things. Sometimes we feel like someone’s feeling expressed on TV is how we all should feel. ]]> 2022-11-28 15:04:17 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400361943 Logos Analysis | Lyrics 2 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400367526 Sometimes the logos appeal is connected to knowledge that is related to emotions. “‘Cause I feel like I’m the worse so I always act like I’m the best.” is connected to narcissism and even a superiority complex. Studies do show that people who are more narcissistic do have more harsh expectations of themselves than other people. ]]> 2022-11-28 15:07:15 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400367526 Logos Analysis | Lyrics 3 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400373321 While other examples in logos are purely fact, some are just observations. “If you are not very careful, your possessions will possess you.” We can see this in even modern day media. People who have a lot of money or things can base their life on it. Their possessions and money possess them. ]]> 2022-11-28 15:10:14 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400373321 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400375582 2022-11-28 15:11:23 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400375582 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400378580 2022-11-28 15:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400378580 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400381867 2022-11-28 15:14:36 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400381867 Ethos Analysis | Lyrics 1 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400388563 Ethos is used a lot in this song, especially because Marina is talking through this song. In the lyrics “I know exactly what I want and who I want to be, I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine. I’m now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy.”, it talks about how Marina is figuring out herself. This is any speaker saying how now they knows what they want to do with their life. They know why they were simply playing along with life and their ready to take their life into their own hands. ]]> 2022-11-28 15:18:03 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400388563 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400390524 2022-11-28 15:19:07 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400390524 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400394160 2022-11-28 15:21:01 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400394160 Ethos Analysis | Lyrics 2 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400397093 Another thing that connects our speaker to the song is the line, “Don't do love, don't do friends. I'm only after success. Don't need a relationship. I’ll never soften my grip.”. This is the speaker saying that they value success and approval over friendships and partners because they feel like if they do other things than work and aspire to be the best, they’ll lose their grip on success. ]]> 2022-11-28 15:22:36 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400397093 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400739330 2022-11-28 18:46:31 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400739330 Ethos Analysis | Lyrics 3 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400767882 The last example I have is the lyrics “Don’t need money, don’t need fame. I just want to make a change.” . This is something about everyone feels. The want to make a change to benefit the world effects about everybody, for better or for worse. The speaker basically saying how nothing else matters at this point and how they just want to make a change to the world. ]]> 2022-11-28 19:04:40 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400767882 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400768881 2022-11-28 19:05:19 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2400768881 Introduction- SOAPS | Lyrics (1) 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402018922 This song has no defined speaker, it applies to whoever sings in the song. This song is meant to be relatable and meant to connect. You are the one who is expressing your fears in this song. When Marina sings it, she’s the speaker. The occasion is her trip to Los Angeles. In her words, “The song was written in response to be terrified of not achieving what I say I want to achieve every time I open my big mouth. It's my part ii to 'Mowgli's Road.' I was paralyzed by fear before my trip to the States and couldn't stop thinking about being a failure and was convinced that I'd become a self-fulfilling prophecy if my brain didn't shut up and stop being so negative. So, I put it in a song. Mowgli's questioned who I want to be, 'Oh No!' confirms it. It made me feel confident again after a shaky 6 months. Life is just a barrel of laughs at end of day, anyway!" ]]> 2022-11-29 14:42:14 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402018922 Introduction- Soaps | Lyrics (2) 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402022941 I believe the audience is ourselves. This song is made to prove to Marina how she can do whatever she puts her mind to. This is the same for us. When we sing it, we are proving this to ourselves. We try to prove that we know what to do and we try to face our fears.  While Marina's purpose was to help with her fear of not being able to achieve what she wants to. She’s proving that these fears do not define her and that she can do whatever she puts her mind to. Though the purpose can change with each speaker. Lastly, the subject is the fear to not be able to achieve what you want to and the fear of failure. Which this song covers up with a happy and up-beat tone. ]]> 2022-11-29 14:44:28 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402022941 Lyrics 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402029444 Don't do love, don't do friends
I'm only after success
Don't need a relationship
I'll never soften my grip
Don't want cash, don't want card
Want it fast, want it hard
Don't need money, don't need fame
I just want to make a change
I just wanna change
I just wanna change
I just wanna change
I just wanna change
I just wanna change
I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh!
One track mind, one track heart
If I fail, I'll fall apart
Maybe it is all a test
'Cause, I feel like I'm the worst
So I always act like I'm the best
If you are not very careful
Your possessions will possess you
TV taught me how to feel
Now real life has no appeal
It has no appeal
It has no appeal
It has no appeal
It has no appeal
It has no appeal
I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh!
I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh!
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fly
I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna die
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fly
I'm gonna fail, gonna die, die, die, die
I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh!
I know exactly what I want, and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk, and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no, oh!

She makes this point through bright colors, and quick snippets of lyrics with a deeper meaning. She covers up her confusion and dismay with a happy and cheerful song.]]> 2022-11-29 14:49:50 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402033070 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402039147 2022-11-29 14:53:14 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402039147 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402040391 2022-11-29 14:53:55 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402040391 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402042562 2022-11-29 14:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402042562 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402045284 2022-11-29 14:56:52 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402045284 Pathos Analysis | Lyrics 1 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402049228 I believe this is her strongest appeal. This whole song is like a wave of emotions coming from Marina. In the lyrics it says, “If I fail, I’ll fall apart. Maybe it is all a test. ‘Cause I feel like I’m the worse so I always act like I’m the best.” ,and also, “I’m gonna fail, I’m gonna die”. This is a feeling that about everyone gets. We are doing a task or assignment and it feels like if we mess up at all that we’ve failed. To so combat these feeling we act superior, so we feel better about ourselves and our failures. ]]> 2022-11-29 14:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402049228 Pathos Analysis | Lyrics 2 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402053089 With this being her strongest suit comes relatability and emotions. In the statement, “I’m gonna live, I’m gonna fly”, there is a sense of hope. This is the hope that either silently sits inside a person or is extremely shown. We all have hope, we just need to use it. ]]> 2022-11-29 15:01:21 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402053089 Pathos Analysis | Lyrics 3 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402057598 In the song it is clear that our speaker, Marina, has a goal in mind and is determined to complete it. Well in the lyrics, “One track mind, one track heart.”, we can tell how dedicated she is to it. We’ve all had this feeling of just wanting to get this done and not stopping until we do. No matter what.]]> 2022-11-29 15:03:49 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402057598 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402058615 2022-11-29 15:04:24 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402058615 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402059286 2022-11-29 15:04:46 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402059286 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402061488 2022-11-29 15:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402061488 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402063069 2022-11-29 15:06:39 UTC https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402063069 Images Used 4105864 https://padlet.com/4105864/7hcgdjwneevhtm2g/wish/2402081190 https://weheartit.com/entry/73867038
