It has been such a long time from the last time i updated my English blog^-^ My friends, my blog, I am terribly sorry!
Lastweek, when we had our English speaking class, our teacher let us listen to the song " Blackbird " performed by The Beatles. It was a song with slow rhythm. As i know, Blackbird was written by Paul McCartney, who was inspired to write this after a bird woke him up at six in the morning in India. McCartney said in 2002: "It was written when there were a lot of troubles in the southern states, over civil rights. I don't know if any of you know, but in England we sometimes call girls 'birds'… and I kind of wrote this song with that in mind."
I thought about the meaning of this song but after i read what Paul said, maybe i need think more about it. " Why was it blackbird? In England, they call girls " birds ", so why was it blackbird? Why not whitebird or some other colors? Does anyone know this song? In Vietnam, crow is believed to be the bird that bring us misfortune, I myself dont believe that but i just wondered if Paul had been in Vietnam, he might have written this song or not. Blackbird?
