Wow- some incredible comments- I'd like to give feedback to you two individually if possible please.
I think both Cheryl and Emma have made some superb analyses of the songs lyrics and their possible links to Gatsby/ Daisy. Hopefully you both found it useful. It's interesting to me that these two students have made such an effort and they're the first two to comment. And they get really good gades in English. Hmmmm....!
Some prompts for other students: consider the tone of the song- is it playful, bitter etc- how is it? Does it link to the novel? Who else could the 'rats' be? Is Daisy a 'real fake'(whatever that is) in a way that Gatsby isn't? How do you interpret the call and response structure e to the poem ("She's a fake! Sure, but she's a real fake")Who would be saying this from the novel? Is it the same voice throughout?
