Evaluate Creative Thinking
· Resources: Individual Selection of popular songs and Ch. 13 of the text.
· Identification: as a team identify four popular songs. Each team member is to then identify 3-5 examples of metaphor usage in the songs selected.
· Begin a 350-word paper in which you evaluate the metaphors which will be due in Week Four. You may want to check Week Four Assignment Criteria for this assignment and for further clarification. You do not want to simply state the “metaphor had feeling” as an example. This is a deeper assignment than that.
"Rainy Night In Georgia"
Hoverin' by my suitcase
Tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
Heavy rain fallin'
Seems I hear your voice a callin', it's all right
Rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia
Oh, it is rainin' all over the world
Neon signs flashin'
Taxicabs and buses passin' through the night
The distant moanin' of a train
Seems to play a sad refrain onto the night
Rainy night in Georgia
Rainy all night in Georgia
Lord, it's rainin' all over the world
Rain
How many times I wondered
But it still comes out the same
No matter how you look at it or think of it
You just got to do your own thing, oh, yes
I find me a place in a boxcar
Take out my old guitar to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest and I'm all right
But it's rainin' down Georgia
Such a cold, old lonesome night in Georgia
Sometimes y'all it just rains
Rains
One of them old slow drizzling Rainin'
Tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
Heavy rain fallin'
Seems I hear your voice a callin', it's all right
