Lyrics:
I don't wanna be left
In this war tonight
Am I alone in this fight?
Is anybody out there?
Don't wanna be left left in this world behind
Say you'll run to my side
Something 'bout Mary
Never won a pageant
Never felt pretty
Never looked like Cameron
Diaz was her last name
Always been abandoned
Keep your head up
Baby girl this is your anthem
There goes Hannah
Showin' off her banner
Rocking that crown
Make them boys go bananas
When you're insecure about yourself
It's a fact
You can point a finger
But there's three pointing bac
I can see her crying out, yeah
Is there anybody out there?
She's really counting on your love
Still struggling uphill
But you act like you don't care
Right now she could really use a shoulder
Hanging onto the edge til it's over
She's crying for your love tonight
Loneliest heart to survive, she said
I don't wanna be left
In this war tonight
Am I alone in this fight?
Is anybody out there?
Don't wanna be left left in this world behind
Say you'll run to my side
Is anybody out there? yeah, yeah, yeah
Is anybody out there?
(Somebody, anybody)
His name was Adam
When his mom had him
Dad was a phantom never took a look at him
Grew up mad and antisocial
Hated outdoors, always in playing madden
Adam was lonely
Drugs were the only
Way out of his own life
Now he's slowly losing his fire
Close to retire
With one last hope he puts his arms up higher
I can see him crying out, yeah
Is anybody out there?
He's really counting on your love
Still struggling uphill
But you act like you don't care
Right now he could really use a shoulder
Hanging onto the edge til it's over
He's crying for your love tonight
Loneliest heart to survive, he said
I don't wanna be left
In this war tonight
Am I alone in this fight?
Is anybody out there?
Don't wanna be left left in this world behind
Say you'll run to my side
Is anybody out there?
If you feel the way I feel
Like you've been talking to yourself
Well this one's for everyone who's felt invisible
Lonely in a crowded room
Searching for someone like you
Can't do it all alone (no one can baby)
Can't do it all alone (no one should baby)
Is anybody out there?
(Somebody, anybody)
Is anybody out there?
I'm right here for your
Is anybody out there?
I don't wanna be left
In this war tonight
Am I alone in this fight?
Is anybody out there?
Songwriter:
Don't wanna be left left in this world behind
Say you'll run to my side
Is anybody out there? yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't wanna do it all alone
I need your love to take me home
No one said you should be all alone
I'm right here
Is anybody out there?

Musical Theme
The songs I chose for this assignment were Live It Up, Waving Flag, World Cup, We Are One, La, La La, and Waka Waka. All these songs are related to World Cup soccer, these songs unite the World of Soccer. Music has the incredible power to unite people across cultures, languages, and borders. My playlist celebrates this idea of unity through a collection of songs that have become anthems for global events like the FIFA World Cup. These songs embody the spirit of togetherness, joy, and celebration, making them perfect choices for any occasion where people come together in harmony. Through this playlist, I aim to highlight the universal language of music and its ability to bring people closer, regardless of their differences.
"Waving Flag" by K'naan:
"Waving Flag" became the anthem of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Its uplifting melody and inspirational lyrics convey a message of hope and resilience. The song's tempo is upbeat, creating an energetic atmosphere that invites listeners to join in and celebrate. The structure is straightforward, with a catchy chorus that is easy to sing along to. The consonant harmonies and infectious rhythm evoke feelings of unity and solidarity, making it a perfect anthem for a global event like the World Cup.
"We Are One (Ole Ola)" by Pitbull featuring Jennifer Lopez & Claudia Leitte:
"We Are One" was the official song of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. With its infectious beats and lively rhythm, the song captures the vibrant spirit of the host country. The melody is catchy, and the tempo is fast-paced, reflecting the excitement and energy of the tournament. The song's structure features dynamic shifts and a strong, anthemic chorus that encourages participation. Its fusion of Latin and pop elements adds to its universal appeal, embodying the idea of unity in diversity.
"La La La (Brazil 2014)" by Shakira:
"La La La" was the official song of the 2014 FIFA World Cup, alongside "We Are One." The song's infectious rhythm and catchy melody make it instantly recognizable. Its upbeat tempo and pulsating beats create a festive atmosphere, inviting listeners to dance and celebrate. The structure is dynamic, with a memorable chorus that repeats throughout the song. Shakira's energetic vocals and the song's vibrant instrumentation contribute to its joyful and exuberant mood, making it a perfect anthem for a global sporting event.
"Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" by Shakira:
"Waka Waka" was the official song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. Its upbeat tempo and infectious rhythm capture the spirit of the tournament. The melody is catchy, with a memorable chorus that encourages audience participation. The song's structure is dynamic, with energetic verses leading to an anthemic chorus. Shakira's powerful vocals and the song's vibrant instrumentation evoke feelings of joy and celebration, making it a perfect anthem for a global event like the World Cup.

K'naan - Wikipedia
Keinan Abdi Warsame (born 16 April 1978) (Somali: Keynaan Cabdi Warsame, Arabic: كَينَان عَبدِ وَرسَمَ Kaynān ʿAbdi Warsama), better known by his stage name K'naan (/ˈkeɪnɑːn/), is a Somali-Canadian musician. He rose to prominence with the success of his single "Wavin' Flag", which was chosen as Coca-Cola's promotional anthem for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Besides hip hop, K'naan's sound is influenced by elements of Somali music and world music. He is also involved in various philanthropic initiatives.

nothing will ever come close to 2010 world cup songs. NOT ONLY did shakira bless us with an eternal bop that is waka waka, we also got wavin' flag by k'naan. unbeatable. by the way i'm very glad to see someone i follow be excited for the world cup as i am!
OMFG WAVIN’ FLAG, okay so, honesty hot minute: back then i actually liked wavin’ flag waaaay more than waka waka (especially cause waka waka is like slightly a rip off of another famous latinx song) & i was always bitching like ‘THIS shouldve been the original song’ but yeah, now i love both equally i guess
also im a sports journalist & my main field is football: the world cup is the only reason i have to Live every four years

Week 3
Prompt 2: Computerspielmuseum / DDR Museum: Public Communication of Sport Sciences and Technologies. Compare and contrast an example from each museum that talks about, shows, or otherwise presents a science or technology used in sports. Embed a music video of one song you would choose to play along with each sport (one for each, two songs total). Use supporting quotes from McLeod to explain why you chose those songs.
Tumblr media
In both museums we visited, there was an underlying theme of sports: the difference is how they represented them. At the Computerspielmuseum sports were represented through the games played. Many early games were based on sports or sporting events such as Pong, Track and Field in 1982, and Pole position in 1982 (1). As video games progressed, more themed sports games and devices became popular. NBA, NFL, and FIFA games today dominate the market with over $4 billion in revenue and is sold in over 50 countries as of 2011 (2). The obsession of sports continued, and in 2006 the Wii came out. This new gaming system was focused on sports and other active games. It was based on the idea that you can play video games, and exercise at the same time. Overall the theme of sports was represented at the Computerspielmuseum through the technology of video games, and video gaming systems. 
In the DDR museum the theme of sport and its importance in the life of the East Germans became apparent. Many plaques and posters were found across the museum detailing sports in everyday life. Upon doing research I found that sports and physical activity were promoted by the government starting as early as 1959. At that time Walter Ulbricht's government would say "Everybody - Exercise once a week" to promote mass participation in sports. Tactic worked, as "20 percent of all East German citizens were active members of the national sports organization" (3). Sports became another way to promote solidarity between the people of East Germany. They were proud of their national team, and from 1968-1988 they competed as the "East Germans" in the Olympics (4). Their T.V networks were used to highlight their performance at the Olympics and continued the tradition of solidarity through sports. 
When talking about sports, the reading comments that "Sports, however, doggedly clung to the pristine notion of military heroism, as color guards typically presented flags" (McLeod, p.535). This quote shows that in numerous sporting events, especially the World Cup or The Olympics where more than one country is present, flags are openly flown. For this instance, the song I chose to represent the DDR museum was the song "K'naan - Wavin' Flag." This song was the official song of the 2010 World Cup, and it was also featured on multiple FIFA video games. 
For the Computerspielmuseum, the song I chose is "Kurtis Blow - Basketball." This song is featured on multiple NBA games, which is my favorite video game and sport. It also features a lot of the criteria for a typical sports song/anthem. According to the reading "basketball has been most pronounced in the realm of hip hop, two entertainment genres that are allied by everything from shared fashions, attitudes, to urban roots" (McLeod, p.532). This song is the definition of old school hip hop and is all about the sport of basketball. Additionally, "A strong element of the appeal common to all of these sports anthems is that they feature memorable and easily sung choruses in which fans can readily participate" (McLeod, p.541). This song has a catchy, simple, and easy to predict chorus that fits this description perfectly.

K'NAAN - Wavin' Flag 
dit liedje wordt gezongen door Keinan Warsame beter bekend als K’naan. Hij is een Somalisch-Canadese dichter, muzikant en rapper. Hij won tijdens de Juno Awards 2010 prijzen zoals ‘Artist of the Year en Songwriter of the Year. Hij is bekend geworden door dit liedje. Dit liedje was een hit bij het WK2010 in Zuid-Afrika. K’naan heeft in 2010 met andere Canadese artiesten onder de naam “Young Artists for Haïti” zijn nummer “Wavin’ Flag” opnieuw opgenomen om geld te verzamelen voor Haïti na de aardbeving.
Ik vind dit nummer zalig. Je wordt er spontaan gelukkig van. Het brengt oude herinneringen terug naar boven want ik heb het leren kennen door mijn broer. Hij zette dit vaak op in de auto en toen gingen we allemaal even los. Je hoort de blijdschap in zijn stem als hij dit lied zingt. De video clip is ook heel leuk en om gelukkig van te worden. Het tempo is over het algemeen vrij traag. Je hoort tijdens de melodieën een herhaling van een stem op de achtergrond wat zorgt voor een leuke toon en een goed ritme (vorm). De dynamiek is niet heel sterk. Het tempo van dit liedje is traag gezongen. Dat maakt dit liedje net zo leuk.
