Who Says

I personally chose this song because nobody should change who they are just because they are told to by someone else.

The song is like someone telling you that you are perfect just the way you are.

It also means that you don’t have to look a certain way just to get some peoples attention or to fit in with a certain clique/group.

Appeal of Who Says

Selena wrote this song when she was in elementary school and because some kids where saying that she is ugly.

Selena (in the song) is saying that no matter what you look like or who you really are you are perfect and you can’t change the way you look or the way you see things will not change yourself.

Story of Who Says

The message is: inner beauty is more important than outer beauty.

The point of the message is that if people change themselves, they won’t understand that inner beauty is more important than outer beauty.

The other message: be yourself.

Message

The tone of the song is every happy moment you can think of.

It is a joyful tone and has a happy beat and rhythm

The beat sounds like a happy song you're listening to during a walk/jog.

Mood/tone of the song

My favourite lines in the song is: Who says, who says you're not perfect

Who says you're not worth itWho says you're the only one that's hurtingTrust me that's the price of beautyWho says you're not prettyWho says you're not beautiful, who says?

These are my favourite lines in the song because she is saying that no matter what you look like or who you are, you are beautiful.

My favourite lines

This is a good example of literary devices because this song has rhymes, a simile and repetition.

Why this is a good example of literary devices

Repetition- it is saying that nobody can tell you to change

Rhyme- the song keeps saying who is telling you to change

Simile- the song is also saying that you are like a work of art and you never get to see the light because of all the lies
