"Stand By Me'' Ben E. King By: Marvelin Santana
When the night has come And the land is dark And the moon is the only light we'll see No I won't be afraid Oh, I won't be afraid Just as long as you stand, stand by me So darling, darling Stand by me, oh stand by me Oh stand, stand by me Stand by me
If the sky that we look upon Should tumble and fall All the mountains should crumble to the sea I won't cry, I won't cry No, I won't shed a tear Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darling, darling Stand by me, oh stand by me Oh stand now, stand by me Stand by me So darling, darling Stand by me, oh stand by me Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me Oh stand by me, oh won't you stand now, stand Stand by me
Why I chose this song? • I chose this song because of the meaning behind it. • Old song • I first heard it from a singer named Prince Royce • Over 400 versions of this song • Ben E. King is mostly known for this song
The Speaker Of The Song • It's a man • The repetition of "darling, darling" • It's a man that is in a relationship and the girl always ends up going away and not having his back
IMAGERY DEFINITION-visually descriptive or figurative language, esp. in a literary work • "When the night has come And the land is dark And the moon is the only light we'll see" • "If the sky that we look upon Should tumble and fall All the mountains should crumble to the sea"
Repetition DEFINITION-the action of repeating something that has already been said or written "Stand by me, oh stand by me Oh stand now, stand by me Stand by me" • Saying Have my back • Always stay with • REMINDER
Figurative language DEFINITION-Literal and figurative language is a distinction in traditional systems for analyzing language. • "If the sky that we look upon Should tumble and fall All the mountains should crumble to the sea" ** It's not literal • It's not really going to happen
My Interpretation The song is about a boy telling his girl please don't leave always have my back. He wants her to support him with everything that he does. He knows that there is a lot of ups and downs in the relationship but he knows they can get through it .The theme of the song is never leave a situation just because it is to hard.
