Blanca Villa Un-thinkable

Un-Thinkable (I’m Ready)

        My sister showed me this song I was 7 years old my sister and i were laying watching Music Choice on On Demand but we heard songs of hers a long time ago before Un-thinkable. I really liked it because I like R&B a lot and sorta like old school music. And I really like Alicia Keys voice. It didn’t really affect me but now i really love her music even though she doesn’t make music often.

    Alicia Augello Cook she was born on January 25,1981(age 35) also born in New York City. At the age of 7 she began to take piano lessons she graduated from a Professional Performance Arts School. Alicia keys influences are Nina Simone,Barbara Streisand,Willa Cather,Terri Augello,Alice Walker,Quincey Jones. She has won 9 grammys and she mostly sings R&B

     Alicia Keys uses symbolism twice to convey the theme that you should take the risk for love. She shows this in her bridge and the hook.

    

           Alicia keys uses symbol of deserve it to represent that she is ready to start the relationship all over and they should try again.In the bridge Alicia says “You give a feeling that i never felt before/And i deserve it,i think i deserve it/its becoming impossible to ignore/And i cant take it”. This reveals the theme that you should take the risk for love because you always can get 2nd chances and re start all over.

  

              Alicia Keys uses the symbol wings to represent freedom and that they can love whoever they want. In the hook Alicia says “why give up before you try/feel the lows before the highs/Clip our wings before we fly away” this reveals the theme that you should take the risk for love, freedom is important because you can choose whoever you want to love. I think is worth to take a risk in love because you can explore love because you can find your true love.

         A particular strength of the song is that it has a lot of powerful lyrics for example in one of her lyrics she says wings and the listeners really don't pay attention. This strengthens the song because a lot of people don’t really pay attention to the lyrics but this really caught my attention.

   In conclusion, Alicia Keys conveys the theme that you should take the risk for love. This topic is important you should take the risk for love and you have the freedom to love whoever you want. I recommend that you should follow your heart.
