Fitzgerald wrote the novel taking place the same time period, the 1920's. The novel represents the jazz age and the happiness people had during this time period. The music is a result of the pop culture Fitzgerald presents to the readers ]]> 2018-04-20 20:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/253989184 2.

This song is a great example of how the characters are connected in the novel, this song is up beat]]> 2018-04-20 20:32:26 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/253989327 3.

Nick is with Daisy and Gatsby in his mansion entering the music room whilst this song is playing. On page 95 Nick leaves and sees the expressions on Gatsby's face showcasing his happiness, this song really shows the impact of the 1920's as the rich people were happy and outside there was a terrible storm happening to the rest of the people]]> 2018-04-20 20:39:57 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/253990581 1.

Your love belongs to me
At night when you're asleep
Into your tent I'll creep
The stars that shine above
Will light our way to love
You'll rule this land with me;]]> 2018-04-29 00:21:18 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256260416 Lyrics stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256270990 Bill collectors gather 
'Round and rather 
Haunt the cottage next door 
Men the grocer and butcher sent 
Men who call for the rent 
But within a happy chappy 
And his bride of only a year 
Seem to be so cheerful 
Here's an earful 
Of the chatter you hear,

Every morning,
Every evening, 
Ain't we got fun? 
Not much money, 
Oh, but honey,
Ain't we got fun?
The rent's unpaid dear,
We haven't a bus. 
But smiles were made, dear, 
For people like us. 
In the winter, in the Summer, 
Don't we have fun?
Times are bum and getting bummer 
Still we have fun.
There's nothing surer,
The rich get richer and the poor get children. 
In the meantime, 
In between time, 
Ain't we got fun!

Just to make their trouble nearly double
Something happened last night
To their chimney a gray bird came
Mister Stork is his name
And I'll bet two pins
A pair of twins
Just happen'd in with the bird
Still they're very gay and merry
Just at dawning I heard,

Every morning,
Every evening, 
Don't we have fun?
Twins and cares dear come in pairs, dear, 
Don't we have fun? 
We've only started 
As mommer and pop. 
Are we downhearted? 
I'll say that we're not! 
Landlord's mad and getting madder. 
Ain't we got fun? 
Times are so bad and getting badder,
Still we have fun.
There's nothing surer, 
The rich get richer and the poor get laid off!
In the meantime, 
In between time, 
Ain't we got fun!]]> 2018-04-29 04:34:09 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256270990 Three O'Clock in the Morning by Paul Whiteman stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271314 Fitzgerald uses this song to show the romantics in this age and foreshadowing Daisy's romantic adventure with Gatsby. The song and scene does take place at Gatsby's party]]> 2018-04-29 04:40:58 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271314 The Sheik of Araby by fatz Waller stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271591 This song is up beat, like the type of music at parties. Fitzgerald uses this song with the scene of Nick and Jordan to show the start of a relationship/ friendship between Nick and Jordan. The song sounds like an intro to something]]> 2018-04-29 04:47:05 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271591 A'int we got fun by Van & Schenck stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271705 Fitzgerald uses this song to symbolize the life of people in this era. Gatsby is happy with Daisy while outside there is a storm, it shows the hardships the non rich had, showing the happiness those who had something shared. Fitzgerald choice of song is very wise, the lyrics say so as well, "The rich get richer and the poor get laid off!" this just shows the difficulty people shared, I think that is why Fitzgerald chose this song in this scene]]> 2018-04-29 04:50:00 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271705 Pink Floyd- Wish You Were Here stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271901 I chose this Pink Floyd song to represent Three O'Clock in the Morning. This song shares the same romantic feeling that Fitzgerald desires in that scene. The song is like a slow mood song, the lyrics are literally like a romance song "How i wish, how i wish you were here" the desire for one another is the exact same when Nick leaves Daisy, he sees the mood the party brings and leaves knowing something will happen between Gatsby and Daisy, a romance thing]]> 2018-04-29 04:54:41 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256271901 lyrics stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256272154 [Intro]
— and disciplinary remains mercifully
Yes and um, I’m with you Derek, this star nonsense
Yes, yes
Now which is it?
I am sure of it

[Verse 1: David Gilmour]
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

[Verse 2: David Gilmour]
And did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a leading role in a cage?



[Chorus: David Gilmour]
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here

Fitzgerald used The sheik of Araby to symbolize a good time in the jazz era, the fun time people had. This song follows the same mood because it is feel good music that makes you feel good, it makes you feel like you are a party. ]]> 2018-04-29 05:12:13 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256272809 Lyrics stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256272981 [Verse 1]
I get up, and nothing gets me down
You got it tough. I've seen the toughest around
And I know, baby, just how you feel
You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real
Oh can't you see me standing here?
I've got my back against the record machine
I ain't the worst that you've seen
Oh can't you see what I mean?

Might as well jump (Jump!)
Might as well jump
Go ahead, jump (Jump!)
Go ahead, jump

[Verse 2]
Hey you! Who said that?
Baby how you been?
You say you don't know, you won't know until we begin
Well can't you see me standing here?
I've got my back against the record machine
I ain't the worst that you've seen
Oh can't you see what I mean?

Might as well jump. Jump!
Go ahead, jump
Might as well jump
Go ahead, Jump!
Jump!



[Guitar solo]

Might as well jump. Jump!
Go ahead, jump
Get it and jump. Jump!
Go ahead, jump

Jump!
Jump!
Jump!

In the novel Fitzgerald uses A'int we got fun to showcase Gatsby's happiness of being with Daisy and Nick sees this. I chose this song because it makes me feel happy as A'int we got fun made Gatsby feel happy when he was in his music room with Daisy. Also this song brings a what now moment, as if they were just getting started. The same is with Gatsby and Daisy, it begins with them in the music room onto a what now moment]]> 2018-04-29 05:25:49 UTC https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256273414 Lyrics stephen_1750246 https://padlet.com/stephen_1750246/z98tdqkfzkqy/wish/256273524 [Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long, I'd probably break down and cry

[Chorus]
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

[Verse 2]
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain
To quietly pass me by

[Chorus]
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine



[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

[Chorus]
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Sweet child
Where do we go now?
Aj, aj, aj aj, aj...
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Sweet child
Sweet child o' mine
