Special Assignment 1

In my assignment I was told to make a post about why we use metaphors. Well, we use metaphors for many different reasons. One reason we use it is in history or literature to maybe just get the reader to think about what the writer is saying and to apply it. Another example that I thought of is using metaphors in music.

Musicians rely on metaphors in today's lyrics, but nothing like they did years ago. Artist had to be very careful about what they were saying in their songs, or they might not be put on the radio, and since they were so popular they had to do what was necessary. The Beatles used metaphors plenty, and also Led Zeppelin. Here is a link to some metaphoric songs!
