Brief description of my Secondary Source

The lyrics to the song perfomed by Adele," Set Fire to the Rain" is the subject I work on for my primary source analysis.

My secondary source are as follow:
1)journal of popular music studies
2)article of "Lets Analyse the Lyrics to Adele's"Set Fire to the Rain"
3)article from Music Week of title"US Charts: Adele's 21 surpasses 6 million Stateside sales

Therefore with my secondary sources, I can expand my analaysis by examning the reason what role the lyrics of this song has played in making Adele's style of singing and her success. In my secondary sources, there stated some concepts talking about how people's attention are not their own but as a conformity to the society's interest and so on. This point is expected to be my main point in my secondary analysis and from there I will further provide examples to elaborate my points.

  1. Sounds like you have a great outline of what you want to do! If you're going to be basing your essay around what makes her music a success, you might want to find a source that talks more about her life so that you can see how that might affect it. Also, make sure not to stray too much from the original argument if you start talking about conformity in todays culture.

  2. That sounds good. If your articles don't talk about it already, maybe look into who the song is written about if it is anyone in particular like an ex or something
