I like that you stated money "adds onto having a good life" since it is mentioned so often in the song (chorus). Money was also on our Popular Culture's Messages list from class, "get money." Your clarification of "I never seen snakes on a plane," was about sex, I did not realize that until I read the lyrics. Although you could have elaborated after the lyrics in #2, you just mentioned that it was about women, "if you're up to date with the modern day slang." You also could have paraphrased that section of lyrics and then analyzed. Interesting point in #4, when you said you were not too interested in this type of music, but you "vividly remember what was on the video." I believe a huge part of pop culture is how the message is presented. The lights, bold words, pictures to go with the lyrics, etc...its all a way to draw their audience/consumers in to believing the message.
