To Kill A Mockingbird Soundtrack
"Sugar We're Going Down"
Fall Out Boy pp. 75-76
I chose "Sugar We're Going Down" because Atticus decides to defend Tom Robinson. Lines 9 and 10 say, "We're going down, down in an earlier round and sugar we're going down swinging." This relates to the book in that Atticus knows that he will lose the case, but will try his hardest because he knows it is the right thing to do.
"Landslide"
Fleetwood Mac
p. 115-117
Lines 10 through 13 of the song "Landslide" talk about how things change and "children get older." Scout is bothered by how her brother is changing because he is getting older.

Another change addressed in these pages is that not everyone agrees with her father defending Tom Robinson.

Phil Collins

Zeebo, a black man who attends the church, says, "We're mighty glad to have you all here. Don't pay no tention to Lula... she's a troublemaker from way back, got fancy ideas and haughty ways.'"
