Also, this song was meant to be about a world that is both beautiful and terrifying. This relates to Lord of the Flies because while they are stranded on a beautiful island, the terrifying evil nature of humans emerges. The band is also from England, where all the boys in the book are from.]]> 2019-04-11 00:26:13 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350592521 8564925 https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350594683 This song really reminds me of Lord of the Flies because of its music video. The Beastie Boys are coming in from a rocket in space and crash land on Earth. This resembles the book because the boys crash on an island. Also, the name of the band reminds me of LOTF because it is the "Beastie" Boys, and the boys on the island are all afraid of the "beastie".]]> 2019-04-11 00:34:49 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350594683 8564925 https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350596284 This song connects with Lord of the Flies because it talks about how society is just an illusion and that on the inside, people are poor and evil. This connects with Lord of the Flies because when the boys are around laws and civilization, they aren't evil, but when they are stripped of all these things, on the inside, they are evil.]]> 2019-04-11 00:42:43 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350596284 8564925 https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350597482 This song reminds me of Lord of the Flies because it shows how evil people really are and how we try to cover it up. In the music video, many evil acts are committed, but you would never know without looking at it twice. Childish Gambino wanted it this way to show people how we are deceived by the media and technology. In Lord of the Flies, the kids start off as civilized, but as their situation prolongs, they become more and more evil, up until they start killing people. ]]> 2019-04-11 00:47:58 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350597482 8564925 https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350599277 This song reminds me of Jack and Ralph fighting over chief in Lord of the Flies. This is because it is about two kings fighting over the throne and one accidentally killing the other. In the book, Jack doesn't kill Ralph, but sticks him with a spear and almost kills him before he reaches a navy officer on the beach. This song also reminds me of Lord of the Flies because when Ralph loses control of the "tribe" of boys, it is almost like the king is dying.]]> 2019-04-11 00:55:28 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350599277 8564925 https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350611273 This song reminds me of the section in the book when all the kids are reminiscing about home and their mothers. Also, the opening lyric is "Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?". This reminds me of the beginning of the book when they crash land of the island because they are being evacuated from bombings in London]]> 2019-04-11 01:47:58 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/350611273 8564925 https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/351193211 This song reminds me of the aftermath of Simon's death when Ralph and his tribe make sure to act like they weren't there when Simon was killed. It reminds me of this because the singer of this song is asking if there is a ghost around him. This reminds me of the death because if I were Ralph, I would feel like Simon would come and haunt him and the other boys.]]> 2019-04-12 15:18:47 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/351193211 8564925 https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/351209727 This song reminds me of the first few chapters of Lord of the Flies. This is because it is a feel good song about surfing, swimming, playing on the beach, and hanging out with friends. Another reason this song reminds me of the book is because it is one of the only feel good songs in the album. The other songs are all about evil. This is like the book because the beginning in fun and exciting, but everything else is about the evil nature of people.]]> 2019-04-12 15:53:50 UTC https://padlet.com/8564925/scr963ib1nkv/wish/351209727
