Unlabeled by Isabelle by Victoria Hansen - Grade 11 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3 Rhetorical Analysis en-us 2018-12-14 16:49:17 UTC 2019-01-14 17:02:00 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Hearts.png Link 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315249267 2018-12-17 17:01:21 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315249267 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315252814 Isabelle mostly uses a combination of pathos and ethos in both the lyrics and music video of the song "Unlabeled" to tell people that they're beautiful just the way they are.  In addition, there is a touch of logos in the lyrics and somewhat more in the video.  Her use of imagery and similes help get the point across to her audience.]]> 2018-12-17 17:09:01 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315252814 Subject 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315256290 The subject of this song is about how everyone is beautiful in their own ways, no matter what they think or what others say.]]> 2018-12-17 17:16:27 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315256290 Occasion 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315256451 In an interview with All Access Music, Isabelle told sources that she will never write about a scenario that she hasn't personally experienced.  When she moved to LA, she was tired of this fake sense of perfection surrounding her.  She felt she was being judged because she was the "fat" girl.

Featured in the music video are people who feel like the public perceives them negatively and they wear the words that either they call themselves or they think others call them.]]> 2018-12-17 17:18:17 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315257232 Purpose 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315257429 Her goal was to inspire and touch others. She wants the song to be a reminder to anyone who has doubts about themselves that they can turn weakness into strength. "Unlabeled" is her fight song towards the industry's perception of what she's 'supposed' to be.  She thinks that there isn't a person who can't relate to this song because everybody has felt judged or not good enough to others or themselves.

The topic itself can be kind of serious, but the tone takes away from the seriousness of it all and turns it happier and catchy.]]> 2018-12-17 17:24:43 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315260452 Link 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315262440 2018-12-17 17:28:48 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315262440 Analysis 6 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/315945786 Like a flicker in a dark sky

If there's a light you can't hide

Inside your soul you're beautiful

There's nothing wrong with being different

Nothing wrong with being who we are

This section is pathos because you're a light to the world and you can't hide it, no matter if you think it makes you different. You are who you are, and you shouldn't be ashamed of it.

Don't try don't try to cover me up or color me in

You can't fit circles in squares

So don't try, don't try to cover me up or color me in, no

This section is pathos because she says that if you don't fit in somewhere, there's no use trying to fit in because it just doesn't work.

Who we are is good enough we're worth it

Might be cliché but it's about who we are

Not what we wear or what we weigh

Who we are not who we love or where we pray

This section is pathos because she says that things like your weight, your clothing, who you love, and your religion, don't matter. They don't define who you are.

Who doesn't love a chocolate covered late night

Bare feet are more comfortable

Than those high heels you can't walk in

This section is pathos because she's stating things that are true about now only, but some of her listeners. Loving chocolate and preferring bare feet instead of high heels resonates with many people.

And if I'm honest I don't want to

Won't be ashamed

I'm not your kind of perfect

This is ethos because she says she won't be ashamed of what others think of her, even though not everyone thinks she's perfect.

It's so hard to find the right light

Yeah we all get lost in our shadows

This section is logos because she's trying to tell her audience that it's okay that you can't always be the best, and it's easy to lose yourself in this world.

This word is repeated continuously throughout the song.  It is pathos because of its repetition.  Not only is it the title, but she literally just says it over and over to make sure the listener gets that word stuck in their head.]]> 2018-12-21 16:58:20 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/316437156 3293531 https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/316437916 Brungardt, Leah. “An Interview With the Promising ‘Unlabeled’ Singer, ISABELLE!” All Access Music, 24 Aug. 2017, http://www.music.allaccess.com/an-interview-with-the-promising-unlabeled-singer-isabelle/. ]]> 2018-12-21 17:02:20 UTC https://padlet.com/3293531/ds76gf0fv6k3/wish/316437916
