Many times in the song Gray says "I wanna feel all that love and emotion". This sentence applies to pathos because of the raw emotion it will bring out of you. Gray chose those words because that is exactly how he feels. Conan Gray found no need to say anything besides exactly what needed to be said. Another ethos is when Gray says "They're having talks about their futures until 4 a.m. And I'm happy for them". This lyric really does make you happy for the couple that Gray is telling you about. The emotions that Gray feels throughout the song are really the emotions that you end up feeling as well because of the way the song is written. ]]> 2022-05-31 07:36:25 UTC https://padlet.com/40009211/ueldh6iq52ht3hys/wish/2205686452 40009211 https://padlet.com/40009211/ueldh6iq52ht3hys/wish/2205687890 The instance of Ethos in the song People Watching comes when Conan Gray says "But I cut people off like tags on my clothing". This describes ethos because everyone has cut tags off of their clothing. Everyone who has bought clothes understands that it is second nature to cut off the tags, and no one really thinks much of it. This really makes listeners understand how Conan Gray handles the relationships (romantic and platonic) in his life. We understand that it is second nature to cut off is friends as soon as he can. ]]> 2022-05-31 07:37:31 UTC https://padlet.com/40009211/ueldh6iq52ht3hys/wish/2205687890 40009211 https://padlet.com/40009211/ueldh6iq52ht3hys/wish/2205704189 Overall, the song People Watching is a collection of memories and dreams from someone on the outside of a relationship looking in. Looking at the lyrics, Conan Gray is very effective into persuading the listen to feel what he is feeling. ]]> 2022-05-31 07:49:30 UTC https://padlet.com/40009211/ueldh6iq52ht3hys/wish/2205704189 40009211 https://padlet.com/40009211/ueldh6iq52ht3hys/wish/2205711960 YouTube.
