Music 101 - EXAM - Thursday 12pm

"Welcome to your last class for Music 101 dudes. You don't have class next week because classes finish on Wednesday. The day, not the student. Today is your EXAM. I hope you brought a pen. In case you didn't, there's some on the table in the corner. Please sit down at one of the desks. Before we start, I've got a few things to say.

Tonight is the Band recital, in here at 6pm. Be sure to stop by and support your fellow music dudes. There will be free punch and pie.

Lane Kim, Lily Evans and Rose Tyler - I never got your 'Your Life As A Movie' projects. Leave them with me today or you'll fail that project.

Okay dudes, here's the exam. Remember - no talking and no cheating. I think you can all do it without cheating. You've got the whole class time to do it, and you can leave once you hand in your paper to me. You can turn over your exam paper and start work."

[OOC: This thread will be open until Monday. If your character does not show by then, they will fail the subject. If you are reading this after Monday and have an RL reason for not showing (and are willing to give your character a *suitable* IC reason for not taking the exam), please contact me and we can arrange a supplementary exam.]



MUSIC 101 FINAL EXAM

2. Interpret these lyrics and give a reason for your answer.
And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say 'thank you for being a friend'
Daaaaa-da-da-dun-dun-da-duuuuuun.


3. Pick a movie of your choice and discuss its soundtrack (either the official one or the music in the movie). Point out what was hot and what was not.

1. Dum Dum Da Da
Dee Dee Doo Doo
Doo Dee Dum Da
Da Dum Dee Do
DaDumDeeDoo!


2. Those lyrics are full of love and compassion for someone special. The only thing is, you don't always have to bring the bigget gift to be the best friend. I mean, diamonds could be in a small box and giving those would make you an awesome friend. But, these are well meaning lyrics about friendship and, possibly, St. Olaf.

3. The soundtrack from Top Gun is one of the most awesome of all time. Danger Zone is one of those 'roll the windows down and sing at the top of your lungs' songs that will never grow old. From that, you slide right into 'Take My Breath Away' which is like the ultimate makeout song. 'Great Balls of Fire' is just another uptempo, upbeat song that pumps you up, which is exactly what the movie does! The Top Gun anthem, that instrumental piece just makes you feel like your flying. And if there's one guy who hasn't tried the 'You've Lost That Lovin Feeling' pick up song, then they're lying.

4. If music disppeared, much sadness would occur. There would be loss of creativity, happiness, and fun. Attached are several pictorial examples: Man who just lost Metallica (http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/5254/560078048pe.jpg). Man who just lost Celine Dion.

5. I really think giraffes are musical creatures. I mean, those spots on their skin, they gotta do something, right? Perhaps, if we were to study them, to uncover their secrets, we would find that those spots are actually an organic piano!

EXTRA CREDIT: It was, obviously, the one armed man.
