1.3 Enrique Iglesias : << HERO>>


RE-WRITE WORK
The song/poem that I choose is call “ Hero” and it was written by Enroque Iglesia.Enroque Iglesia was born in May 8, 1975, and he is a spanish Spanish pop music singer and also a good songwriter. During 2001 his first single, "Hero", became a number one hit in the United Kingdom, and in many other countries. The entire album was co-written by Iglesias. The reason why i think this song is relate with "supernatural" because the power fuction of this song.Of course, how much of its success because “accidentally” after the semptember 11th attacks, “Hero” became the song wound 911 American medicine comfort, but also became the American people call the romantic heroism.In fact," Hero" was just released during the 911, not specially ask the American people wounded and glorified heroism. It is eassy to tell the song is an love song, regardless of the melody or the magnetic Enrique singing, but the way he writes this charming euphemism lyrics, Ruqirusu, extremely beautiful. The song also helped people who felt sad about 911 in the United States. when the fans in mind with this song soothe the pain and shouted: "I'll be your hero, baby. I'll kiss away the pain, I will always stand by you , my heart to you! " There is another reason why I choose this song because the way he writes lyrics of “Hero” is sample but sad, affectionate, worth hearing a hundred, also comes with a lot feeling about how people gives their love to their lovers and really touched my heart a lot.

Also there are some symbolism that I found from this song. Including connotation and denotation. In the song, there are many symbolism words that come with a powerful meaning such as the word “Tremble” which denotation means to shake involuntarily with quick, short movements, as from fear, excitement. But for this song it is not just about that simple because it is not just about the act of trembling with quick. For me, that word can shows that what kind of reaction he wants from his lover, I can see that he wants her do tremble when he touch her in the way "touched your lips" comes across. I think the reason why he write this way because he wants to shows his passion about his love and let his lover trust him that he would swear that he will always be with her and stand by her forever.

There is another symbolism key word that plays a very important part in the whole song is the word “Die”. The denotation meaning of word “Die” can be to cease to live; undergo the complete and permanent or cessation of all vital functions then become dead. But in this song, there is more meaning than that. My understanding is that, the connotation meaning of “ Die” means when you really love about someone you can do anything for her even “die”. It can be lost all your money, become unhealthy, some dangerous situation, any life’s struggles you might have to face in the future.

The third symbolism that I found is the word “Soul”. The denotation meaning of the word “soul” means the principle of life, feeling, thought, and action in humans. But in the connotation means can be shows how deep the author loves her and how much the author need her love with him. He might lost his soul if he can’t have her at any moment.
The fourth symbolism that I found is the word kiss. According to the Wikipedia, the word “ kiss” means to touch or press with the lips slightly pursed, in an expression of affection, love. I think that can be he denotation meaning of this word. But I also think there is another meaning behind that. For example, at the introduction of my blog I used an example from his fans because when the fans in mind with this song soothe the pain and shouted: "I'll be your hero, baby. I'll kiss away the pain, I will always stand by you, my heart to you! "and this can shows that when his love feels sad, having a trouble, any pains that she have. Then the man will taking care of everything for his love and cover all the problem that she have in her life.

The last symbolism word that I found is “Breath”. The denotation meaning of the word “Breath” is respiration, esp. as necessary to life. But in this song, the way author us the word “ breath” to shows that how important she is in his life. “breath” can be the most important thing in his life and he can not live without it because the author is telling her that he is in it for the long haul, that he is totally and completely devoted to her and their love. That when he dies, it will be with her right there beside him, taking the last breath from his body.

In conclusion, this song really effects my mind about love and also shows me what is the true love looks like. However some people say that this is a stone would cry listening to songs, it was said that he sang the whole world all men's voices. Every time when I hear this song and it can reminds me the first time I hear this song with my girlfriend. It was bout last year at a cold winter afternoon, setting in a coffee store with my girlfriend. After I listened this song, it made me felt I want to be her hero forever. The song give me a lot of power function, such as, confidence, courage and love.


Hero by Enrique Iglesias                                                                
Let me be your hero
Would you dance if I asked you to dance
Would you run and never look back
Would you cry if you saw me crying
Would you save my soul tonight
Would you tremble if I touched your lips
Would you laugh
Oh please tell me these
Now would you die for the one you love
Hold me in your arms tonight
I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away
Would you swear that you'll always be mine
Would you lie
Would you run and hide
Am I in too deep
Have I lost my mind
I don't care, you're here tonight
I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away
Oh, I just want to hold you
Am I in too deep
Have I lost my mind
Well I don't care, you're here tonight
I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away
You can take my breath away
