This Kiss Song Analysis
There are wires growing out of everyone’s ears. That is, to listen to music.

Is our music the soundtrack of who we each are? Do what we listen to support our core values in life? To answer this I sought out the one song I listened to most, “This Kiss” by Alex Days and Carrie Hope Fletcher, and interpreted its lyrics to see if it matched with my core values of commitment, happiness, and love.
My most listened to song is Alex Days and Carrie Hope Fletcher’s rendition of Faith Hill’s “This Kiss”. It tells of a story about two people who fall in love.

However, analyzing the lyrics to my most played song revealed its true meaning and one that I agreed with. “This Kiss” matched up with my values perfectly. Listening to this song for its meaning and sung values has given me new perspective on the rest of my music. Next time you have wires in your ears genuinely listen to the music. Depict the real meaning of the lyrics. See if you agree or disagree with the message. Does your music define
