RC: Audience

Role: Cultural Ambassador or Social Advocate Students will assume the role of Cultural Ambassador if they choose a nationalistic song, representing and promoting their country’s culture. Alternatively, if they choose a song related to a social issue, they will become Social Advocates, using music to voice their stance on important social issues (such as equality, justice, or environmental concerns). In both roles, students will act as performers, educators, and communicators of significant cultural or social messages.

Audience: community members who are attending a cultural showcase event

Situation: In today's globally interconnected world, cultural pride and social advocacy are increasingly important. Students will be participating in a simulated real-life event, such as a cultural festival or social awareness campaign, where they must showcase their national or cultural identity or advocate for an important social issue through music. Their task is to select a song that reflects either their cultural pride or a pressing social issue and to present it as if they are part of a larger festival or campaign aimed at celebrating diversity, raising awareness, and inspiring action.

Product: Students will produce a live or recorded performance of the selected song, either vocal, instrumental, or both.

This performance will be accompanied by a presentation that provides:

• A selected Song (Ci)

• song’s cultural or social background, its historical significance, and its relevance in a national or global context.

• Call to Action: students can include a call to action, encouraging their audience to engage with or support the cause the song addresses.

• Appraise their performance (Di)

• A reflects on their development as an artist, as well as why they chose this song, its meaning to them personally, and how it reflects their identity or values. (Dii)

1. I chose the song is because it addresses the issue of women's reproductive rights, specifically about Roe v. Wade.

Appraising the performance:

1. I feel like I could do better. Because of the backing track problem. I didn't manage to make the backing track and my singing in sync which can clash together and not sound balanced.

2. Dynamic contrast: Starting off with more softer dynamic verses to build tension before a more powerful chorus.

3. Social rejection: It can be hard to perform a personal song, and it may not connect everybody, and facing judgement from people.

4. Performing this song can enhance my understanding of music as a powerful form of expression.

Call to action & Overall Reflection

1. In this performance, I hope to inspire others to connect with these Causes and recognize that they are not alone in their struggles. Because this social issue is in today's society especially the current generation.

2. I learn that I can find a way to connect with audience with their struggled by delivering it through a song.

3. Roe v. Wade's overturning, Billie Eilish's "TV" performance is a sad critique on the cultural diversion of celebrity trials contrasted against the crucial topic of reproductive rights. The lyrics, which express such a potent idea, urge listeners to rise up and fight for women's rights instead of focussing on minor problems. Will get followers to participate in and support the cause of reproductive justice.

Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain

I leave my heart open, but it stays right here empty for days

She told me in the mornin' she don't feel the same about us in her bones

It seems to me that when I die, these words will be written on my stone

[Pre-Chorus: Zayn & All]

And I'll be gone, gone tonight (Oh-oh-oh)

The ground beneath my feet is open wide (Oh-oh-oh)

The way that I've been holding on too tight (Oh-oh-oh)

With nothing in between

[Chorus: Harry & All]

The story of my life, I take her home

I drive all night to keep her warm

And time is frozen (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life, I give her hope

I spend her love until she's broke inside

The story of my life (The story of, the story of)

[Verse 2: Niall & Liam]

Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change

Leave my heart open, but it stays right here in its cage

I know that in the mornin', I'll see us in the light up on the hill

Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still

[Pre-Chorus: Louis, All]

And I'll be gone, gone tonight (Oh-oh-oh)

The fire beneath my feet is burning bright (Oh-oh-oh)

The way that I've been holding on so tight (Oh-oh-oh)

With nothing in between

[Chorus: Harry, All]

The story of my life, I take her home

I drive all night to keep her warm

And time is frozen (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life, I give her hope

I spend her love until she's broke inside

The story of my life (The story of, the story of)

[Bridge: Zayn]

And I've been waiting for this time to come around

But, baby, running after you is like chasin' the clouds

[Breakdown: Niall]

The story of my life, I take her home

I drive all night to keep her warm

And time is frozen

[Chorus: All & Zayn]

The story of my life, I give her hope (I give her hope)

I spend her love until she's broke inside ('Til she's broke inside)

The story of my life (The story of, the story of)

[Outro: All & Harry]

The story of my life

The story of my life (The story of, the story of)

The story of my life
