â€Å"Beach in Hawaii†; An analysis Ziggy Marley is the son of the late Reggae great Bob Marley, in 2012 he wrote a song called, â€Å"Beach in Hawaii.† Though the title is upbeat, Ziggy talks about loneliness and how he wants to be with a certain person on the beach in Hawaii. Throughout the song, Ziggy uses repetition, imagery, metaphors and similes to drive the point that he is lonely in paradise. In the song â€Å"Beach in Hawaii,† Ziggy Marley uses repetition. To drive the meaning of the song Ziggy repeats the line, â€Å"I wish you were here with me,† ten times throughout the song. By using repetition of this line, Ziggy is driving the point that he is longing for someone to be with him. Ziggy could be longing for a few people; one notable person†¦show more content†¦The song has a very sad tone, consequently people are more likely to imagine someone walking on the beach looking at the ground and skipping rocks on the water. When people have their head down they are likely to think of someone being sad, that is where the phrase keep your head up comes from. Another way which Ziggy Marley uses imagery is when he says, â€Å"I’m on a rocky cliff,† (13). A rocky cliff conjures up images of someone looking down and there is a sheer drop-off into the ocean. This part is where it is shown that Ziggy is near the point of no return. When someone jumps off a cliff, there is no direct way back, they would be forced swim to closest beach. Without that person, Ziggy is near the point of no return. Another way which Ziggy uses to drive the meaning of his song is through metaphors and similes. Throughout the song, Ziggy uses metaphors and similes to drive the meaning behind his it. Ziggy uses Hawaii as a metaphor for happiness. Hawaii is a metaphor for happiness because of the imagery that is conjured, which is people smiling, and relaxing on the beach. For Ziggy, being in Hawaii means that he is at least somewhat satisfied, but he is not completely satisfied. The reason why Ziggy is not completely happy is because that one person that Ziggy wants to be with him is not there with him, therefore Ziggy could never be completely satisfied even if he is happy.Show MoreRelatedPopulation Growth Has Fueled The Demand For More Resources1395 Words   |  6 Pageswithin 100 km of the coast.
