I hear angels singing!
Walt Whitman's "I Hear America Singing" presents an image of America that America would like to believe true, an image of proud and healthy individualists busy in productive and happy labor. The "varied carols" of the many American people reflect a joy in the day's creative labor and the American dream or myth. America singing emerges as a happy, individualistic, proudly, America. It is surprising that in such a brief poem so much of Whitman's total idea and concept of modern man could be stated.On the other hand Langston Hughes's poem is in response to Walt Whitman's "I Hear America Singing" which discusses how America is made up of all sorts of different workers and classes. Hughes's poem does not speak of the various ethnic groups and the work they do and how they are treated. Whereas Whitman's poem celebrates the working class, Hughes's response in "I, Too Sing America" is reminding America that there is still change needed. Reminding people that you can't celebrate a country without celebrating everyone in the country and their contributions.
Each memeber of the band singing live hears the others singing their own instrument. In the past, singing live was really hard because you couldn't hear the others singing, so it whas a matter of instinct to play syncronous. I know it seems stupid not to hear the others singing, especially since 800k watts speakers are I front of you, but you just can't hear anything.
you have to keep singing intell you get beter in singing and you have to have a good voice and you have to go to America idale
America, the varied carols I hear, everyone one is singing for i hear America singing, they plank or beam the mason singing his as he measures his work or leaves off work, Oh i hear America singing
The singing was their work The singing was their lives.
Walt Whitman
