Compare/Contrast Assignment

Comparing and contrasting is a skill that everyone should know how to do because you will be comparing and contrasting things all your life.  With this in mind I want you to compare and contrast songs that have the same title, but are different.  For example, they are sung by different artists and therefore have different styles or lyrics.

Here is a website that gives examples of songs with the same titles, but are by different artists:

I want you to select two songs with the same title and then compare/contrast the two songs.

1. Using a Venn Diagram show the similarities and differences between the songs.
2. In a paragraph explain which song you like better and why.  (Try to focus on the style and lyrics of the song.)

This assignment is due November 5 (Even periods) and November 6th (Odd periods).

Worth 10 points
