In this paper I chose to write on the song “Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman.

I chose not to do “Hallelujah” because this is only a three-page paper and I tend to get obsessed when I analyze that song. So I am looking at “Fast Car” which in my opinion is one of ...

I think pregnancy is supposed bring joy to the pregnant woman and the community at ...
