Does love make you crazy? That?s the question that is offered in the title. ?Crazy in Love?, Beyonce?s smash hit from the early 2000s, was the opening sound byte for this piece. While it gave many definitions for love, some by males, others by females, still others by elders and youth; I still eagerly awaited the answer to the question. Between the choppy transitions and the silly responses to what people?s ideas of love are, I began getting a little bit restless. The only ambient sound was the children playing during the interviews and Beyonce in the beginning and ending of the piece. It seemed a little unorganized with the interviews during the end, but after listening to eight minutes and fifty-four seconds worth of audio, I did come out with one thing:
Love makes you crazy, only if you were crazy to begin with? =]
(Ms. Lavender, that is the quote of the year!)
The tone was informal, but it didn?t take away from the essence of the topic since love is generally thought of as a youthful entity. The narrator?s spunky personality shined right through the waves, and I definitely am not mad at that. With a little more work, your pieces will be as smooth as ice. Good job though!
