CHARACTERISTIC OF A COUNTRY SONG sung by a man
- Women
- Love
OVERVIEW
Sung by Jordan Davis. This song is about how this man really enjoys the company of this woman, but she is taken. Jordan would really like to date this girl, but the downside is that she is actually in a relationship. He tells her that he would treat her so much better so she should just become single. He is the better guy. I will be using the Sex-Role Theory to find the example of femininity traits throughout the song.
Femininity examples throughout the song
Cheerful & Affectionate
“I’m telling you, we’re just one kiss away from heaven” Relating her to heaven is a bold statement. It must mean he truly cares for this woman. He is telling her that if they were to kiss it would be heaven and there would be no down days.
Compassionate
“I just wanna linger like this on your lips” This can be seen as compassionate coming from a place of a boyfriend, but the fact that they are not dating it could be seen as a little creepy.
Compassionate
“Hold you in my hands” As stated with the last one, this could be seen as sweet and caring but the fact that they aren’t officially dating it could be seen as creepy.
Affectionate
“‘Cause I want to get wrapped up in your love” By this point he is just trying to give her all the plus about him and how happy they would be together. Coming off as looking at me and all the love that we could have together.
