There is this one line that says "I've fired up and tired of the way things have been" this lyric stuck out to me when I was looking for songs because the entire book, Ralph is saying that he is tired of the way Jack has been acting and Jack is tired of the way Ralph has been acting, on top of that they are all believing that they are all going to survive this, making them a believer]]> 2019-04-11 21:21:25 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350976095 8561224 https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350977480 This song has symbolized a lot of things, I think it's about realizing the power inside of you and what you can become. "I'm waking up to ash and dust" that means that someone is shaking or letting go of what people said about them. This leads to Jack, because no matter how many times Jack has been told No or has been called an idiot (even though he is) he still continues to push and try and be the best every day.]]> 2019-04-11 21:30:11 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350977480 8561224 https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350979446 In my opinion, this song makes me think of Jack, I've never heard of this song until this project, but after listening to it for a couple of times, this song made me think of Jack and how much he craves power. "Who cares what the haters think? They're hating on me for what they can't" I think that's Jacks mono, I think he doesn't realize how much power he craves and that's why everything falls apart while the boys are on the island.]]> 2019-04-11 21:39:30 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350979446 8561224 https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350981191 This song is both meaningful in the book and in life, Ralph losing two of his friends on the island and people losing people in real life, I think this song fits in the story in some many ways but the main way is when Simon died and how Piggy and Ralph felt afterwards, scared and regretful and when Piggy died, Ralph had lost his closest friend on that island. 
"We've come a long way from where we began" this is probably the one line in the song that sums up everything, from the time the boys came to the island to the time that they got rescued, how they changed and how the island changed with them.]]> 2019-04-11 21:47:15 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350981191 8561224 https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350982605 I chose this song because it symbolizes hope and throughout the whole book, Ralph continues to hold onto the little hope he has. "I don't care if no one else believes, because I still got a little fight left in me" I think this is a good quote for Ralph because no matter how many times Jack tells him to shut up, he always gets back up, protects his friends, and always continued to fight until he got off of the island, even having to fight for his life when Jack goes crazy and starts hunting him like an animal.]]> 2019-04-11 21:54:40 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350982605 8561224 https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350983497 This one reminds me of every single boy on that island, the beginning talks about them wanting more than an ordinary life, and I think the boys got that when there plane crashed into the island. "Trying to feel invincible" I think every boy was trying to feel hope so that line can work for them. "On top of the world" that line can go with Jack because he thinks that he is on top of everyone and craving the power so he needs to feel invincible]]> 2019-04-11 21:59:53 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350983497 8561224 https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350985679 I think this might go with Ralph believing that his Dad will come back and save him because in the first couple of chapters, he continues to hold onto the hope that his Dad will come and save him and his friends from the island so when it repeats "Where are you now that I need you?" even though the book doesn't say that he says that, I would find it hard to believe that he doesn't think that because it must be hard on him and with him waiting for his Dad, that's the first question that I would think he would ask.]]> 2019-04-11 22:09:05 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350985679 8561224 https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350986418 This song is more towards the littluns and Simon, because the song talks about fearing the unknown and trying to find the strength to speak up for yourself and in the story, Simon had a hard time doing that because people would just look at him like he was weird or something like that and with the littluns, when they mentioned the beast, everyone looked at them like they were crazy, causing them to be scared but in the inside, so that's why this song has a connection with Simon and the littluns.]]> 2019-04-11 22:14:10 UTC https://padlet.com/8561224/fmzdtvgvxwbj/wish/350986418
