Songs as Poems

Posted 2:04 PM by AD in Labels: , , , , ,
Newest feature in the POC! Something I've been looking forward to reading since I first realised you can put these two things together and come up with something different, ie, since I was a teenager and read about Lester Bangs. These things ought to be put inside a book!


- Katrina Macapagal on Bob Dylan's "Mr Tambourine Man"

- Chingbee Cruz on the Beatles' "Blackbird"

- Ina Santiago on Peryodiko

- me on Chumbawamba's "Tubthumping"

- Paolo Cruz on Coldplay's "Viva La Vida"

- Carljoe Javier on Mos Def's "Mathematics"


And still a few more new bits to come. I plan to write about three more of these, less of the critical and more of the creative, if only to stave off my impending insanity. My own humble contribution focuses on the Protest Poem as Pop Song, and it's an accurate snapshot of my current concerns the past few months, namely, my education. It's rough going, but I'm getting there. Leave comments!
