kraljicabenzinske 11,250 Posted February 10, 2023 i'm an english graduate so imma give you a few pointers on academic writing (i can't sleep and got nothing better to do) i'm writing this to genuinely help you with your course, not to make fun of you or anything 58 minutes ago, hehitmeanditfeltlikeakis said: Β Many people have accused the title track who? name a media outlet or a critic who has accused the title track; if your essay is based on opposing these allegations, you must be more clear on who has made these allegations and for which reason. "many people" doesn't tell the reader anything. you need specific examples (which is the reoccurring issue in the essay) 1 hour ago, hehitmeanditfeltlikeakis said: However, as a music critic and a person with common sense absolutely not. your argument in an essay cannot be that you have common sense. delete. your viewpoint needs to be supported by factual arguments and evidence, it can't be "just trust me bro" 1 hour ago, hehitmeanditfeltlikeakis said: It's essential to understand the background behind "Ultraviolence." i love how you say this and then proceed to provide no background for the song at all the background would provide us with info about the era of her career and the topics she dealt with at that time of the song release, other related media such as the song's music video and other songs from the album and her opus that are correlated to lana's songwriting in Ultraviolence, and then more specific who is she singing about in the song etc. 1 hour ago, hehitmeanditfeltlikeakis said: Β Its lyrics depict a toxic relationship, but instead of celebrating it, they serve as a cautionary tale. They highlight the complexities and pain of love, warning listeners about the risks of unhealthy relationships. you cannot analyze a lyrics and not provide any examples. You should have copied a few lines and said "in this line it's evident that she' talking about this and that." you need to imagine that this is going to be read by someone who never heard the song so all this would mean nothing to an average reader (and that's one of the important aspects of academic writing when it comes to topics like this - you always have to assume the reader does not know anything about the matter, in other words, you need to spell everything out and be as specific as possible) . For example, Lana Del Rey opens the song by saying that her lover used to call her a deadly nightshade. This implies this and that (and in this part you argue how this line supports you view)... I know this sound very dumbed-down, but this is an academic way of presenting information. evidence (example) spelled out + analysis the part with "they serve as a cautionary tale" is very interesting and i wish you actually showed us how exactly and in which lines is the song a cautionary tale. that would have been an amazing argument, i love the expression cautionary tale, great job with that 1 hour ago, hehitmeanditfeltlikeakis said: Β Her lyrics are carefully crafted to convey a specific message Β the vital message that Lana is trying to communicate through her music. Β girl what is the message? you mention it twice and you're defending the message without even telling us what is the message of the song Β 1 hour ago, hehitmeanditfeltlikeakis said: Β The allegations that it romanticizes abuse and toxic relationships are misguided, and they overlook the context and significance of the lyrics you could have gone so much deeper into explaining how does the song not romanticize abuse and toxic relationships. even to me it's unclear how exactly how argued that it does not. because you basically expressed you general opinion and the feeling you get when you listen to the song, but you didn't make any strong arguments. in which part of the song or in which line can we see that Lana's not romanticizing abuse? How can you prove that she's singing from a perspective of someone who's aware of the danger of toxic love and not from the perspective of someone who's lost in it or enjoying it? 1 hour ago, hehitmeanditfeltlikeakis said: Β and it showcases Lana's talents as a singer and songwriter. no shade to lana, but how? again, you need to prove this. how does the lyrical style show her talent? what lyrical devices did she use? what words or lines can be felt strongly by the listener and why? what about storytelling? Β in conclusion, you have a great way with words and it all looks nice. I have zero notes for the language and writing style, A+Β for that. however, the content is an issue. you need to be so much more specific. provide examples, have clear arguments, go into depth and take us there. your essay is very very general, very subjective, and it doesn't say too much of something specific and it doesn't really help the reader learn something new or make him/her think about the topic 12 Quote Β *:ο½₯οΎβ§*:ο½₯οΎβ§βΏβπ¦π² π π¨π¨ππ’π§ππ¬π¬ π’π¬ π¦π² π©π¨πππ«π²ββΏβ§ο½₯οΎ: *β§ο½₯οΎ:* Β *:ο½₯οΎβ§*:ο½₯οΎβ§βΏβπ¦π² π¬π’π₯π₯π’π§ππ¬π¬ π’π¬ π¦π² π₯ππ πππ²ββΏβ§ο½₯οΎ: *β§ο½₯οΎ:* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thatβs why I asked if it was for a college course. It didnβt go deep enough in itsΒ analysis. Also the thesis was weak in my opinion. The intro βparagraphβ did not make the crux of the argument explicitly clear and detailed, which is why the body also suffered from vagueness.Β 3 Quote βΉ (:Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ [Μ²Μ :β‘:]Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ ) βΉΒ πΒ I took the miracle move on drugΒ π βοΈΒ The effects were temporaryΒ βοΈ βΉ (:Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ [Μ²Μ :β‘:]Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ :Μ²Μ ) βΉΒ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"many people" doesn't tell the reader anything. you need specific examples (which is the reoccurring issue in the essay) absolutely not. your argument in an essay cannot be that you have common sense. delete. your viewpoint needs to be supported by factual arguments and evidence, it can't be "just trust me bro" i love how you say this and then proceed to provide no background for the song at all the background would provide us with info about the era of her career and the topics she dealt with at that time of the song release, other related media such as the song's music video and other songs from the album and her opus that are correlated to lana's songwriting in Ultraviolence, and then more specific who is she singing about in the song etc. you cannot analyze a lyrics and not provide any examples. You should have copied a few lines and said "in this line it's evident that she' talking about this and that." you need to imagine that this is going to be read by someone who never heard the song so all this would mean nothing to an average reader (and that's one of the important aspects of academic writing when it comes to topics like this - you always have to assume the reader does not know anything about the matter, in other words, you need to spell everything out and be as specific as possible) . For example, Lana Del Rey opens the song by saying that her lover used to call her a deadly nightshade. This implies this and that (and in this part you argue how this line supports you view)... I know this sound very dumbed-down, but this is an academic way of presenting information. evidence (example) spelled out + analysis the part with "they serve as a cautionary tale" is very interesting and i wish you actually showed us how exactly and in which lines is the song a cautionary tale. that would have been an amazing argument, i love the expression cautionary tale, great job with that girl what is the message? you mention it twice and you're defending the message without even telling us what is the message of the song Β you could have gone so much deeper into explaining how does the song not romanticize abuse and toxic relationships. even to me it's unclear how exactly how argued that it does not. because you basically expressed you general opinion and the feeling you get when you listen to the song, but you didn't make any strong arguments. in which part of the song or in which line can we see that Lana's not romanticizing abuse? How can you prove that she's singing from a perspective of someone who's aware of the danger of toxic love and not from the perspective of someone who's lost in it or enjoying it? no shade to lana, but how? again, you need to prove this. how does the lyrical style show her talent? what lyrical devices did she use? what words or lines can be felt strongly by the listener and why? what about storytelling? Β in conclusion, you have a great way with words and it all looks nice. I have zero notes for the language and writing style, A+Β for that. however, the content is an issue. you need to be so much more specific. provide examples, have clear arguments, go into depth and take us there. your essay is very very general, very subjective, and it doesn't say too much of something specific and it doesn't really help the reader learn something new or make him/her think about the topic I AM CRYING LAUGHING. ur my new fav user on all of LBΒ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
