What is the rhetorical situation of your favorite song?

Think about your favorite song and post a link to it on your blog (either a YouTube Video, Spotify link, Sound cloud, etc) and answer these questions in 200-500 words:

What is its purpose? (To inform, to persuade, to tell a story?)

Who is the audience? Be specific. Who is the audience for this musician and is this song directed toward that audience or a new one?

What are the rhetorical appeals?

How does the style connect with the content? (What kind of mood is the song trying to evoke and does it match the lyrics?)

What are the genre conventions for this style of song and does it meet them or subvert them.
