For instance, "Good Rocking tonight", which Presley made famous throughout the world, became "La voix d'Elvis", a story about how his voice and music inspired a generation of French youngsters to rebel against French colonialism in Algeria. A few of Presley's own songs became huge hits in certain regions of the world, in versions whose translation into the required language bore little or no resemblance to the original lyrics. The iconic nature of Elvis Presley in music and popular culture has often made him a subject of, or a touchstone in, numerous songs, both in America and throughout the world.

‘Phone is blowing up’ is hyperbole, as the doorbell sounds do not affect the phone. Phone’s blowin’ up, they’re ringin’ my doorbell… ![]() In the line, “Come on let your colors burst”, the sound of /r/ is a consonance. There’s another simile, in line ‘just own the night, like the fourth of July’. Here the singer is trying to compare the weak-minded persons to a thin paper or a tissue paper. Later in line, there is a metaphor, ‘Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin’. Here the singer compares a person to a plastic bag which used to store things or perhaps a garbage cover. In the first line, ‘Do you ever feel like a plastic bag’, there is a simile. The song is filled with many figurative devices and known as one of the best to learn them. The repetitions like ‘hope you know and don’t cry’ add an emphasis to the singer’s emotions as she tries to convey the message to her love. There is a consonance, the sound of /l/ in the 3rd line, ‘It’s personal, myself and I’. In the above line, the singer compares her emotions and missing a person to a little child who lost his or her blanket.

In the lines, ‘Skies are crying’, skies are personified. The writer has used two opposites ‘up and down’ in the same verse. Here the singer has used oxymoron in the line ‘its long way down, but I am closer to the clouds up, here’. The entire song is an extended metaphor of struggle and overcoming. Here the wind is personified and it is compared by a wolf’s howl. We can see the personification and simile in the following lines ‘The wind is howling like the swirling storm inside’. For example, ‘The snow glows white on the mountain tonight’. The wind is howling like this swirling storm insideĬouldn’t keep it in, heaven knows I’ve tried…Īt the beginning of the song, the singer has used hyperbole. The snow glows white on the mountain tonight People get drunk from drinking too much alcohol. The hyperbole is used in the line, ‘Kiss me till your drunk’, which is an exaggeration. There is also consonance and assonance in ‘Ay Ay Ay Aaay’ and “Oh yeah oh”, with the sounds of /a/ and /y/. ![]() Here the singer is comparing his dancing skills with Mick Jagger’s because Mick Jagger is known for a unique dancing style. In the above lines, the singer uses the simile in ‘I’ve got the moves like Jagger’. Kiss me ’til you’re drunk and I’ll show you all the moves like Jagger Just shoot for the stars if it feels rightĪnd aim for my heart if you feel like it… ‘Love’ is personified in the lines ‘love can touch us one time’. At the beginning of the song ‘Every night in my dream I see you I feel you’, the writer uses imagery to create a visual impact of the singer’s dream and her beloved. The songwriter exaggerates the way to illustrate the main character’s presence to the listeners. This time he went to Beijing and Hong Kong, where the movie is set, to get the word out about "Skyscraper.The above lines use hyperbole in the line ‘near far, wherever you are…’. Like "Rampage," when the actor flew to Shanghai to promote the movie (and helped it earn over $150 million in its China run), Johnson was back hustling in China for his latest movie. The performance of "Skyscraper" in China wasn't attributed only to the fact that posters of Johnson, hanging from a very large building, appeared all over the place.

However, the owner will know this and will adjust the selling price accordingly. This is usually good news about the condition of the machine, as it is rare that a home pinball machine has been rinsed by its owner.
