Today I became a journalist. For the end of class, my professor sent us out with an assignment. I had to get a creatively bent paper clip and ask for music recommendations from two people.
I did not read the directions very well and interviewed the first two people I saw. The first interview I did was on Professor John Kolbo, I asked him to creatively bend a paperclip and what song he would recommend. He replied “Get Together” by Young Bloods. When asked why he said it is his “life theme song”, and it “relates to my life”.
My next victim to interview, Dylan Ferguson recommended “Transatlanticism” by Death Cab Cutie. I asked him why this song, and he replied “Just a really beautiful song” and mentioned the theme of the song as “emotional distance between two hearts.”
I’m not sure you’re a journalist yet, Kaitlynn, but you are on your way. If it was that easy the class would be mush shorter.
It’s good that you asked follow-up questions. Don’t be satisfied with the first response. Ask for explanation.
Death Cab for Cutie.
