As stated in emails, you will only be responsible for creating a timestamped analysis of a song for this paper. You will not need to do the research portion.
This will be worth a maximum of 6 extra packback points. This assignment is optional, doing it will in no way hurt your grade, worst case senario, you get no extra credit.
Part 2
Provide a timestamped analysis of the chosen song. This must include:
Song flow with timestamps at each formal part of the songMust include large formal sections and small formal sectionsThese songs will not be in the Verse Refrain form like tin pan alley songs. They will have a different form. Note different formal parts with Letters such as “A” or “B” or “C”. Think bigger in your analysis of formal parts.
There may or may not be a 12 bar blues in this collection of songs. The 12-bar blues should be shown just like the last guide.
A one sentence description of the song at each formal part
The lyrics to each formal part (if applicable)
Timestamps must be within 1 second, be sure you use the exact recordings provided in the Spotify playlist.
