When you include the lyrics, please CAPITALIZE the adjective clause.
For this contest I'd like everyone to enter a song!
I have posted some examples on the blog for you, and here is one more from my childhood. Enjoy!

G=Girl/Sandy

G: Tell me about it stud!
B: I got chills.
They're multiplyin'.
And I'm losin' control.
'Cause the power you're supplyin',

G: You better shape up,
'cause I need a man
and my heart is set on you.
You better shape up;

Both: You're the one that I want.

The one that I want.
(you are the one i want want), o,o,oo, honey.
The one that I want
(you are the one i want want), o,o, ooooo
The one I need.
Oh, yes indeed.
G: If you're filled
with affection
you're too shy to convey,
meditate in my direction.
Feel your way.
B: I better shape up,
'cause you need a man
G: i need a man
who can keep me satisfied.
B: I better shape up
if I'm gonna prove
G: you better prove
that my faith is justified.
B:Are you sure?
Both:Yes, I'm sure down deep inside.
You're the one that I want.
(you are the one i want want), o, o, oo, honey.
The one that I want.
(you are the one i want want), o,o,oo, honey.
The one that I want
(you are the one i want),o, o, oo
The one I need.
Oh, yes indeed.
Holly, I think we can not do any format on writing comment here. I try to do in many ways but it doesn't work. The only thing I can do here is to make capital letter. I guess everybody has the same problem with me but if anybody have a cure, kindly share it.
ReplyDeleteI see what you mean. Okay, so capital letters for the clauses are good.
ReplyDeleteI want somebody to share
ReplyDeleteShare the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
SOMEONE WHO'LL STAND BY SIDE
And give me support
And in return
She'll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She'll hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me
Aaaahhhhh....
I WANT SOMEBODY WHO CARES FOR ME PASSIONATELY
With every thought
With every breath
SOMEONE WHO'LL HELP ME SEE THINGS IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don't want to be tied
To anyone's strings
I'm carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when I'm asleep
I WANT SOMEBODY WHO WILL PUT THEIR ARMS AROUND ME
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I'll get away with it
And in a place like this
I'll get away with it
Aaaahhhhh....
By Depeche Mode "Somebody"

I KNOW IT : MADONNA
ReplyDeleteI don't know why I thought that I could make you happy
THESE TEARS I CRY FOR YOU are so hopeless, yeah
I don't know why I thought that we were going somewhere
But you grabbed your coat and you were out the door
And now I know you don't care
I know you're gonna take your love and run
I know you think I'm the foolish one
I know you're gonna turn around and say goodbye
I used to think you were MY PRETTY ANGEL COMIN' DOWN
Well now you've just proven me wrong
What about THE LETTER WE HAVE WRITTEN
All THE THING WE'VE SAID AND DONE
I'll just stand here while you count THE BATTLES YOU HAVE WON
But I'm not gonna cry for you
'Cause that's what you want me to do
No I'm not gonna cry for you anymore
Take your love and run from me
Is this THE WAY LOVE'S SUPPOSED TO BE
You don't think that I can see
But you can't fool me
But I'm not gonna cry for you
'Cause that's what you want me to do
No I'm not gonna cry for you anymore
Holly I couldn't find a song with clauses , the songs that i hear are mostly rab musics.
ReplyDeleteeven rappers probably use adjective clauses...
DeleteWHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL - ONE DIRECTION
ReplyDeleteYou're insecure,
Don't know what for,
You're turning heads when you walk through the door,
Don't need make-up,
To cover up,
Being the way THAT YOU ARE IS ENOUGH,
Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else but you,
Baby you light up my world like nobody else,
The way THAT YOU FLIP YOUR HAIR GETS ME OVERWHELMED,
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell,
You don't know,
Oh oh,
YOU DON'T KNOW Ø [THAT] YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL,
If only you saw what I can see,
You'll understand why I want you so desperately,
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe,
You don't know,
Oh oh,
YOU DON'T KNOW Ø [THAT] YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL,
Oh oh,
THAT'S WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL.

LIGHTS - ELLIE GOULDING
I had a way then losing it all on my own
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now, the dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping now, the strength I need to push me
You show the lights THAT STOP ME TURN TO STONE
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself THAT I'LL BE STRONG
And dreaming when they're gone
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights THAT STOP ME TURN TO STONE
You shine it when I'm alone
Noises, Ø [THAT] I PLAY WITHIN MY HEAD
Touch my own skin and hope THAT I'm still breathing
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
In an unlocked place the only time Ø [THAT] I FEEL SAFE.
YOU DON'T KNOW Ø [THAT] YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL,
DeleteOh oh,
THAT'S WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL.
Christian, those are noun clauses (objects of the verb)! Wrong contest for this song!!!
The second song is also better suited to the noun clause contest. Sorry, Cute Christian!
Delete”The One You Love,” by Glenn Frey
ReplyDeleteI know you need a friend, someone YOU CAN TALK TO
Who will understand what you're going through
When it comes to love, there's no easy answer
Only you can say what you're gonna do
I heard you on the phone, you took his number
Said you weren't alone, but you'd call him soon
Isn't he the guy, the guy WHO LEFT YOU CRYIN' ?
Isn't he the one WHO MADE YOU BLUE ?
When you remember those nights in his arms
You know you gotta make up your mind
Are you gonna stay with the one WHO LOVES YOU
Or are you goin' back to the one YOU LOVE ?
Someone's gonna cry when they know they've lost you
Someone's gonna thank the stars above
What you gonna say when he comes over?
There's no easy way to see this through
All the broken dreams, all the disappointment
Oh girl, what you gonna do?
Your heart keeps sayin' IT'S JUST NOT FAIR
But still you gotta make up your mind
Are you gonna stay with the one WHO LOVES YOU
Or are you goin' back to the one YOU LOVE ?
Someone's gonna cry when they know they've lost you
Someone's gonna thank the stars above
