When researching the background information for this song I found out that this song is a combination of all the guys in the bands love stories that they've been through. https://tasteofcountry.com/lanco-greatest-love-story-inspiration-interview/ 

His audience is the girl that he is telling his love story about. The purpose for this song is a story of two people getting together and then taking a break and realizing during that what they needed in life was each other. This then shows us that if two people are meant to be together they'll eventually find their way back to each other.]]> 2021-05-18 16:46:06 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536511846 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536513186 The adult male acting as the speaker attempts to tell the girl that he realizes he misses her and wants to be with her. They use the appeals of logos and ethos in the lyrics and the appeals of logos and ethos in the video to get this message across. In analyzing the lyrics and video, it appears that their use of appeals is effective in convincing their intended audience. ]]> 2021-05-18 16:46:20 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536513186 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536514023 This song had a lot of logos examples because the singer wanted to state facts and the obvious observations that were easily verified. LANCO does use logos a lot through out the song to tell us exactly what is happening through their relationship. One example is when he is talking about the early stages of their relationship, "But you were sneaking out your window every night riding shotgun in my car". This is a just stating a fact about how she would risk sneaking out to hang out with him which clearly shows that they had a strong relationship. Another example is when he is saying "So you went off to college and I got a job". He again is stating facts about what stage their relationship is in and what is currently happening in both of their lives. Close to the end of the song after she arrives home he tells us, "So we went out for a couple drinks to find out who we are now." Again he is just stating a fact and giving us another detail about what is going on in the stages of their relationship. Like I stated above this song as a lot of logos examples because he is telling us what happened throughout their entire relationship, all the facts.]]> 2021-05-18 16:46:30 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536514023 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536514325 The lyrics use different appeals throughout the song to portray the message LANCO is trying to get across which is that if two people are meant to be together they will realize that and find their way back to each other. The video with the lyrics helps to give us a visual of what they are talking about and help us to better connect to the song. Overall, it is effective because both the lyrics and the video convince the audience, which is the girl, that they are meant to be together. ]]> 2021-05-18 16:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536514325 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536514871 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHl0tlUYDBI]]> 2021-05-18 16:46:40 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536514871 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536694444 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orHEt_As-Po]]> 2021-05-18 17:23:02 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1536694444 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537033753 Since this song is a love story this song has a lot of ethos examples. The first example is at the beginning of the song when he is talking about how he saw her, "You were the perfect all American girl". He is telling us how even when he was young he still saw her as his dream girl. Another example is when he is talking about how they made plans when they were young and "You were gonna be my wife". This is implying that he sees her as his wife in the future because of the plans that were made when they were young. Lastly, when he says "We were gonna be the greatest love story this town has every seen." This implies that they were going to be the greatest love story because of how they acted together around people in the town. ]]> 2021-05-18 18:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537033753 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537072465 2021-05-18 18:41:59 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537072465 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537073984 2021-05-18 18:42:20 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537073984 3317011 https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537202462 Thiel, Mike. “Lanco Share Inspiration Behind 'Greatest Love Story'.” Taste of Country, Taste of Country, 4 May 2017, tasteofcountry.com/lanco-greatest-love-story-inspiration-interview/.  18 May 2021]]> 2021-05-18 19:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/3317011/q08klotq6iaxb32/wish/1537202462
