JSM - Edition Two

Y ear 5 – M usic I s A T ool T o E mpower In term 3, students in Year 5 composed music and lyrics to highlight their Exhibition topics. Students used their knowledge of song form and expressive devices in music to create their own songs whilst demonstrating their understanding of children’s rights. A good pop song communicates a message through devices such as repetition, figurative language, rhyme, catchy lyrics and sometimes uses a “hook” to draw the listener in. Can you identify any of these devices in the following songs? Chorus I have no one no more, I have no one no more, I have no one no more, Like I used too No one to love me any more What is this all for? Oh, I have no one no more, like I used too Verse 1 Heard you were gone, why was I looking What was I looking for? I wish I’d know you weren’t coming back to me Cause after all this time I wonder Why I can’t move on like the other orphans did so easily Pre chorus I wish I’d known That the earthquake would take you that night Even know I held on so tight

Never wanted you more Mum I love you the most

My loss isn’t a game Orphan isn’t my name Oh, am I to blame? Chorus I have no one no more, I have no one no more, I have no one no more, Like I used too No one to love me any more What is this all for? Oh, I have no one no more, like I used to Verse 2 I hope every orphan gets somebody How knows to love like me must be more to this why are you gone
