廖學民 Homework-u1587-Team How

When it comes to creativity, JerryC flashes through my mind in the first second.

JerryC is a Taiwanese guitarist and composer,and he is well known for his song Canon Rock, a rock arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon in D chord.

Not only has the web cam video been viewed for over 10 million times in a year, but also guitarists all over the world have been competing to imitate and challenge his playing.

I think he is creative because that he got the motivation to arrange Canon into a rock version after watching the Korean movie "My Sassy Girl"

and there is few of us would do such an arduous thing like that.

He is one of the artists who I am adored, and I adore him not just because the performing skill, but also the persistance he had.

By the way, web users in Mainland China even called him "the glory of ethnic Chinese". I think I feel the same way, too.

JerryC is the 4th person showed up in this vid, he is in white T-shirt.

廖學民 Homework 4 (u1587 HOW)

PART I. About The Bluemen Performance

A. TRANSCRIBING

Your Attention Please. Planetary VEHICLE, we hope you enjoy the many wonderful features of this planet, as you hurtle to through the cosmos.

PLEASE NOTE, however, that in the event of continued inaction in the face of GLOBAL WARMING.

Your seat cushion can be used as a flotation device, also, plaeae take a moment to locate this planet's EMERGENCY EXITS, as you can see, there aren't any.

EARTH TO AMERICA!

CAN YOU HEAR?

SENDING OUT A MESSAGE, LOUD AND CLEAR.

CAN YOU HEAR?

B.

I thought this video was something about MUSIC initially. However, it turned out to be an appeal to all the human being to face the Global Warming problem.

The Bluemen is really somebody in my viewpoint , they know how to remind the public to face with the serious problem which had been ignored for many years.

With facetious filming implements such as pipes and tubes, the main issue would definitely imprint in people's mind.I think that I am deeply affected by this performance since that I am now living in the global village, and I would try my best to protect it.

The performance is really impressive anyway.

PART II About global citizenship

A.

I view myself as a qualified global citizen because I am eager to know the latest episode about global environment, and I pay lots of attention to the critical situation between countries which may triggered some war at any moment.

However, the main reason that makes me think myself a global citizen is being affected by the world trend deeply, which governs my attitude toward the globe.

B.

To become a better global citizen, I should try to affect others and give them an optimistic but realistic notion toward all the thing on the planet we called Earth, by behaving like one.As we know, the information is spreading miraculously, so I could use the advantage of it to send out messages like "Orphanage-caring" and "Forest-rebuilding" whatever could do some payback to the world.

I am writing new lyrics with the same melody of this song, singing it out loud now.

Trying hard to reach my goal, I realized that it is difficult to find words with the same rhyming, and it really depresses me.

Therefore, I think I would ask my elder sister for advice, whos major subject is English.

This song was performed by Adam Sandler in the movie "The Wedding Singer"

I remembered that the song was written when Adam was on his way getting her girl back, stopping her from marrying the wrong person.

I've seen the movie for about 20 times at least, and I am always affected by it, not just the songs but also the meaning behind the scene, which encouraged me to devote myself to what I want.

It is easier said than done, so I would try my best to write more songs in different languages.

(Please revise your statement again to be more specific on our homework3, not simply talking. You can do it on your blog, however) editor

in Tsao's class.
