  I found the documentary “Paris is Burning” engaging through the enjoyment of the individuals in which they embrace themselves as drags. I didn’t understand was the dance vogue. The reason vogue isn’t representing until I watched the scene where the dancers were using the dance. The dance Vogue inspired the song “vogue” from Madonna. The directors helped me understand by realizing that music represents expression. When it comes to the documentary, the music from the 70’s and 80’s really represent the individuals of the gay community.

Ending the Chartwells monopoly is clearly the first step. Let’s open our campus to independent foodtrucks! It is demoralizing to work in one of the most ethnically diverse places in the world and have no access to the wealth of food available in other locations in Flushing.

Just wrote a long comment that disappeared! I was taken aback to see field notes that included the coffee shop I go to almost every day 🙂 Your observations are spot on and beautifully written. As this evolves into a paper, I’d like to see you weave in more direct thoughts about the role music plays in the scene. I’ll also look for a solid set of…[Read more]

One other thought, Samanta– you might want to spend some time explaining the specificity of hipster culture in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Are hipsters here different from in other communities (within or beyond NY)? What brings them to Greenpoint, what is the appeal of the neighborhood versus others?

Hi everyone,

I’m writing first with an apology, and second with news I’m hoping you’ll be glad to hear.

After leaving class Tuesday I felt very sick– I was just diagnosed with step throat and the past two […]

So glad you were able to see him speak directly about his inspiration for this. It’s a wonderful counterpoint to Coyle’s essay. And doubly interesting, given The Beatles interest in American R&B, that Wonder […]

Great example, Matt– the first analysis I’ve seen that frames a cover according to a generation gap. It’s very convincing.
Amy Herzog commented on the post, Cover Analysis: CHOCOLATE, on the site Music Industry Group 3 5 years, 2 months ago

Krystal, this is a really strong rhetorical move– to challenge the very premise of what a cover is through a case study of an artist covering himself (particularly resonant with Coyle, as you note, because of the […]

Great example of a cover of a cover! And I think you make a great case for the implications of switching genders in the Pussy Cat Dolls’ version. A few points I’d add about Soft Cells’, though– first, the full […]
Amy Herzog commented on the post, Cover song: Khan vs. Kanye, on the site Music Industry Group 3 5 years, 2 months ago

This is such a rich example! In some cases, I think sampled songs might not relate to their source material in the same way that covers do. But here, you make a very strong case for West’s rendition being a cover […]
