Rhetorical Analysis by: Jaz by Jazmine Hudson - Grade 11 https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0 Analyzing This city by Sam Fischer using pathos, ethos, and logos. en-us 2021-05-17 17:54:09 UTC 2024-06-09 00:33:01 UTC hello@padlet.com This city -Sam Fischer analysis Jaaaz https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1532632482 The speaker was Sam Fischer as he stated "I've been seeing lonely people in crowded rooms" he's speaking in first person and about he personal experiences living in a new city. The occasion of Sam Fischer moving to a new place trying to succeed but it ending up being harder then he thought, inspired the verse "It's been a couple of months since I've felt like I'm home". Sam Fischer wrote about how he felt he wanted L.A. more the L.A. wanted him. The audience was Sam Fischer (himself) as he wrote about his inner struggle figuring how who he was in a new city. As he asked himself in the song "Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?". Sam Fischer wrote this city to share his personal experience with other people and his process of finding himself in a new place. As he states "This city's gonna break my heart". The subject is that change is hard, but it is also important and it's something almost everyone goes through. The tone of the song is sad. As Sam Fischer often states heartbreak and disillusion of a city he thought would show him the way. ]]> 2021-05-17 18:24:39 UTC https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1532632482 Lyrics Jaaaz https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1533228670 https://www.google.com/search?q=Sam+Fischer+This+City&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS864US865&oq=sam&aqs=chrome.0.69i59l2j69i57j35i39j46i20i199i263i291i433j69i61j69i60l2.4323j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#wptab=s:H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgVuLVT9c3NEwzLjc3y84yfcTozS3w8sc9YSmnSWtOXmO04eIKzsgvd80rySypFNLjYoOyVLgEpVB1ajBI8XOhCvHsYtJLSU1LLM0piS9JTLLKTrbSzy0tzkzWL0pNzi9KycxLj0_OKS0uSS2yyqksykwuXsQqUJKRWayQDLRDASIEAOPnl76jAAAA]]> 2021-05-17 21:32:37 UTC https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1533228670 Video Jaaaz https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1533231334 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3IAHXP1dfs&list=PLrxnftAhRFPpDndjSxnf29s-sUa7DOLAx&index=1]]> 2021-05-17 21:33:51 UTC https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1533231334 Thesis Jaaaz https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1533439792 The song This city by Sam Fischer is sad but relatable.

Covering their old heartbreaks with new tattoos
It's all about smoke screens and cigarettes
Looking through low lights at silhouettes
But all I see is lonely people in crowded rooms
This city's gonna break my heart
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone
This city's got me chasing stars
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
This city's gonna break my heart
She's always gonna break your heart, oh
I remember mornings when my head didn't hurt
And I remember nights when art didn't feel like work
She wakes up at noon and she's out 'til three
She leaves her perfume all over me
But I remember mornings when my head didn't hurt
Oh, this city's gonna break my heart (it's gonna break my heart)
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone
This city's got me chasing stars (got me chasing stars)
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home (oh)
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
This city's gonna break my heart
She's always gonna break your heart
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She got a hold on me
She got me wrapped 'round her finger
("She got a hold on me")
("She got me wrapped 'round her finger")
This city's gonna break my heart (oh, yeah)
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone (it's gonna love me then leave me alone)
This city's got me chasing stars (oh)
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
This city's gonna break my heart (hey, yeah)
She's always gonna break your heart
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh
This city's gonna break my heart, hey
She's always gonna break your heart

He also states "She's got me wrapped 'round her finger" which you can do in real life which makes the verse logical as well.]]> 2021-05-18 00:15:11 UTC https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1533515516 Ethos appeal Jaaaz https://padlet.com/Jaaaz/xindkxnmfkw5xpf0/wish/1533528091 Sam Fischer writes "This city's gonna break my heart" as in the city is going to leave him hurt because he's wanting to succeed in a new place but isn't so that gives credibility to the city.
