[DAYANA] REVIEW A SONG : FIGHT SONG BY RACHEL PLATTEN

There is one song that keeps on repeating on my phone: Fight Song, sang by Rachel Platten. Thanks to my friend, Lina, whom introduced me to this amazing yet powerful song that I am addicted to now. Wherever I am at, I will listen to it, just to constantly boost my mood up. So madam, please give it a listen. Though I did not elaborate it much, but I am sure this will be your next favourite song, then we will have something in common!

So, lets review the song! Rachel Platten, not only sang it but she did composed and wrote this by herself through her experience. I googled her and the background of the song to found this, “I wrote ‘Fight Song’ when I was at a crossroad in my life: on the outside there was a lot of hard stuff going on and a lot of reasons to give up on myself, but through writing the song, I made the decisions to not listen to that small mean voice that was telling me I wasn’t good enough. I decided to keep believing in myself no matter what.” I can clearly see and understand that she once faced up with so many challenges that she could not endure it, but she get the courage to fight it back. So, this song is the summary of how we should act when bad people are circling our life. 

Even Taylor Swift loves the

I wont be reviewing the whole song, but here is my favourite part, the chorusgoes,“This is my fight, song. Take back my life, song. Prove them alright, song. My power is turned on, starting right now I will be strong, I’ll play my fight song. I don’t really care if anyone believes, ‘cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me.” This lyrics are so powerful. Based on this lyrics, she wanted us to make this song as part of our motivation to fight challenges and don't let it influence our life too much that we will become loser. I am a normal teenager that is currently facing up with a lot of new challenges. I do give up sometimes and feel that I am the only one having problems. But after I give a listen to this song, I feel that the singer tries to send us messages that currently I am not the only one facing problems and that I can solve and defeat them one by one. I am stronger that I am now.

(Here is the music video of "Fight Song" I took from Youtube. Enjoy!)

So whenever I am down or having a bad day, I will be playing this song to motivate me that I won’t let myself down just because of the negativity of the people surrounding me. There is a quote that I love, “If people are trying to bring you down, it only means that you are above them.”.
