Dear Mariah Carey,

I am Hamsa from Singapore. I am 14 and I have been listening to your music since I was a child...

My favourite song is ...... because..... . . .

I am very excited to hear that you are coming to Singapore for a concert in May. I have already started saving my pocket money to buy a ticket for the concert.

Yours truly,

assignment 2: fan letter

Hello there 24, once again, we are back at the lab. This would be our last lesson for this term. By now, I hope you have better understanding about lyrics and how they are used by songwriters to bring out emotions, their views and how influential some can be. For today's task, you are going to write a letter to one of the artist you have chosen. in your letter, you are to confess your admiration for them and their music. You can use the following points to help you with your letter.

• how much you like their music


• since when have you liked their music


• what is your favourite song and why you like it


• how does their music make you feel


• any questions you might want to ask them. i.e. I remember reading that you write your own songs and that you draw inspiration from your own experiences in school. What have you learnt about yourself as an artist through this process?


• what you hope to see in the future for the artist

the points above are meant to guide you. You can add other ideas in your letter. Write a letter in 200 words or more. This task will be graded for your CA1. Submission date: 17th April 2011, Sunday 2359h. I will not entertain late entries.

All the best!
