UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA INTRODUCTION

1.1 The Background of the Study

English has an important role for all people in the world because we can communicate with each other by using it. It is acknowledged by some linguists to describe about the definition of language.

According to Keraf in Smaraphadhipa (2005:1) The first notion of language as a means of communication between members of public in the form of a symbol of the sound produced by means of said human. Second, language is a communication system that uses symbols sounds (speech sound) which are arbitrary.

According to Santoso (1990:1) language is a series of sound produced bymeans of conscious human being.

Meanwhile according to King PLATO, language is essentially a statement of one’s mind by means of onomata (name objects or something) and rhemata

(speech), which isreflection of the idea of someone in the flow of air through in the mouth.

Language is a system of communication which consists of a set of sound and written symbols which are used by the people of a particular country or region for talking or writing. The scientific study of language in any of its sense is called linguistics.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

When we study about linguistics we will study semantics which study about figurative language. We know that meaning have an important role to study because it will give influence to someone to understand about speaker’s mean in giving some information to listeners.

People like music or songs, from the young until adult, especially English ones. Most of them would like to collect the English song cassettes or CD. They are interested in improving English mastery through English songs especially these which are popular right now.

In the lyric of western music we know that we do not only use connotative meaning which commonly understood cultural or emotional but we also use denotative meaning to express message from the singer. Many kinds of literature give us so much information in which they use non literal meaning of words. For example, some lyric on the songs uses figurative language to make it more interesting and imaginative.

Figurative language is language that uses words or expressions with a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation or a way of saying one thing and meaning another. There are many kinds of figurative language such as: alliteration, cliché, hyperbole, idiom, metaphor, personification etc. It is associated with the lyric of song uses figurative language. Figurative language is the one of the most famous in society, and also in all education levels.

In this study, the writer is concerned about the description of figurative language in this album, because there are many kinds of figurative language used

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

by the singer to express all the meaning of lyrics that they make. It is very difficult to describe about the meaning because the composer or songwriter created the songs based on their imagination or perception. Therefore, this paper will discuss figurative languagefound in the song lyrics and try to classify and describe them.

In this study, the writer chooses “one’’ album, album by England rock band the beatles to be analyzed. This album was released in England on 2000 and also this album is combination among some of their album before, moreover the beatles is the one of the most popular band in the world and also they have sell more than million album copy. There are some figurative languages can be found in this album such as: personification, simile, metaphor. The writer is interesting in analyzing lyrics of “one’’ album because it’s the one of the most complete album from the beatles. there are so many title of songs from another album are contain in this album so that it will be easier for the writer to analyzed the figurative language in lyric through every songs in this album and also we can find expressions or emotions through every songs that that singers tell to us.

2. REVIEW OF RELATED OF LITERATURE

2.1 Definitions of Figurative Language

This chapter covers definitions and theories which are related to support the subject. The writer has done some literature review in many sources such as books, journal and internet websites.

Figurative language is often created by presenting words in such a way that they are equated, compared, or associated with normally unrelated meanings.

When a writer uses literal language, he or she is simply stating the facts as they are. Usages of some sort of figurative in literature will create a more fascinating and interesting literary work. It is a peculiar way for literature authors to express their thought and feeling and also make it more special.

Figurative language is language that use in figure of speech. A figure of speech is a way of saying something other than the literal meaning of the world.

Figure of speech maybe said to occur whenever a speaker or writer, for the sake of freshness or emphasis, departs from the usual denotations of words (X.J.

Kennedy, 1979:187).

Figurative language is a conspicuous departure from what users of language apprehend as the standard meaning of words, or else the standard order of words, or else the standard order to achieve some meaning or effect. (Abraham

1999:96).

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

Figurative language is language in which figure of speech (such as metaphors and metonyms) freely occur. Contrast with literal speech or language. figurative language are not only very common in poetry or songs, but also in prose and notification writing as well. This is very useful to writer because it can make their language can be more beautiful to listen. A good language style has to certain three elements, three are: sincerity, respectful, and attractive, (Groys

2009:113

2.2 Types of Figurative Language

According to Abrams (1997:97) tells that figurative languages consist of

15 figurative languages. Due to time constraints, the researcher only focus on five types of speech consist of alliteration, metaphor, personification simile

1. Personification

Personification, or in the Greekterm, prosopopeia, in which either an inanimate object or an abstract concept spoken of as though it were endowed with life or with human attributes or feelings (compare pathetic fallacy).

For example: the moon smile at us

Meaning: in the sentence includes the word “moon” which is smiling.

Smiling is an action performed by an object or human life, but in

the quote, performed by inanimate objects.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

2. Hyperbole

Hyperbole is style that reveals something with exaggerated exceeds what is actually meant.

For example: you snore louder than a freight train

Meaning: this statement is overstatement. This sentence explains sound of

someone’s snore is louder than a freight train. In fact sound of

freight train is very loud. It means, this statement explains that it

sound is very noisy

3. Simile

Simile is a comparison between two distinctly different things is explicitly indicated by the word “like or as’’.

For example: Her lips are chapped like pomegranate

Meaning: This sentence compare between two manners. Consist of her lips

are chapped and pomegranate and this sentence using “like’’

4. Metaphor

Metaphor is a word or expression that in literal usage denotes one kind of thing is applied to a distinctly different kind of thing, without asserting in a comparison

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

For example: He has a heart of stone

Meaning: in the example above, there is a comparison between he has a

human with has a heart of stone

From expert’s opinion and example above, it can be concluded that metaphor has similar with simile, sentence which compare two things but do not use “like’’ and as

2.3 Lyrics

All people have their own style for having communication. There are so many things can happen when people cannot understand the meaning that they hear or read, since not all people can understand directly, or sometimes the one will use different style of language to indicate different mention. Moreover, people like to express all of their feeling, idea, emotion or thought through some ways like poetry, short stories, novels and even songs. Sometimes it becomes the media to express their critical thinking and also imagination freely over the event that happened in their life.

Song is one of the things that can be found easy in every human life which contains flowery words. Moreover, song is defined as literary work of musical expression to express human thinking and feeling where it has been the soul of the life cannot be separated. The songwriter uses the different stylistic words in order to beautify, be vivid and nice enough to be listened by the hearer. However, the

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

meanings of the words sometimes are so vague and unclear that the words cannot be interpreted literally.

Lyrics of the song can be as the description of the song writer expression to devote the feeling, thought, and the willingness. Therefore, lyric can be as the form to convey a message in the lyrics. To understand about the meaning of the lyrics, people have to determine the speaker’s intention, which sometimes the song writer is using figurative language on the song, therefore the listeners not only be able to enjoy the melody of the song but they can get more knowledge from interpreting the point of view on things in the world revealed through the lyric of songs.

It is commonly called as an art from the language in which many authors, poet or even song writer use it to create more meaning through language in expressing their ideas and imagination freely by which readers or listeners are demanded to construct their own mind in obtaining the intended meaning which differ from the actual literal meaning of the words themselves.

3. Finding and Discussion

In this chapter, the writer is demanded to describe about the kind of the figurative language found in the “one’’ album and the meaning. Figurative language use figure of way of saying or telling something other than the literal meaning of word.

3.1 Personification

Personification is a figure of speech in which a thing – an idea or an animal – is given human attributes. The non- human objects are portrayed in such a way that we feel they have the ability to act like human beings.

1. There’s a shadow hanging over me (Yesterday – Line 5)

It’s impossible for shadow to be able in following or hanging on someone.

“shadow’’ means a regret feel. He always thinks the regret feel in the past asif it always follows him

2. Don’t carry the world upon your shoulder (Hey jude – line 10)

We know that nobody can carry the world with their shoulder because the world is the place where all of the mortal interact with each other. Perhaps, the songs remind us to don’t carry all of our pain be the problem of ours.

3. Baby says she’s mine, you know

I’m in love with her and I feel fine(I feel fine – line 5)

Just like the previous lyrics, baby is usually used for the calling to the child for the

1-3 old. So, it’s very impossible that a baby’s can understand and says “she’s mine’’ and the meaning of this lyrics is about the songwriter tell us that he has a special calling .

4. The newspaper said (The ballad of John and Yoko – line 18)

“Newspaper’’ is the publishing which is made by the paper and it usually used for get a newest report from various topic. The lyric above clearly personification because the songwriter gives human’s characteristic into a dead thing.

5. These are words that go together well, my Michelle (Michelle – line 2)

“go’’ is a activity which can do by the quick. The lyric above clearly personification because the songwriter gives human’s characteristic into a dead thing. Perhaps, the songwriter wants to say something to a girl that he loves.

6. The rain washed away (The long and the winding road – line 8)

This lyric represent about the songwriter has an unforgettable moment with a girl who has left him without reason so that, he can’t hold her crying fall down in really long time, as if it’s like a rain who washed away.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

3.2 Hyperbole

Hyperbole, derived from a Greek word meaning “over casting’’, is a figure ofspeech that involves an exaggeration of ideas for sake of emphasis. It is a device that we employ in our day-to-day to speech.

1. Lives in the dream(Eleanor rigby – line3)

This refers as a hyperbole because the lyric above is overstating. As a human being, we can only live in the real universe and also we won’t be able to lives in the dream because dream is an imagination especially it happens when we are sleeping.

2. Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door (Eleanor rigby – line 5)

In the church where a weeding has been, lives a dream, waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in the jar by the door who is it for. A normal people basically never keep their face in a jar to express something. This lyric refers to the people who feel disappointed with all of situation in their life.

3. Changing my new life with the wave of her hand (Here, There, and Everywhere

– line 3)

This is hyperbole because we know that hand can’t make a wave. This lyric refers to someone who wants to change their life be better through a woman who can lead him be a better person.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

4.Remember to let her into your heart (Hey jude – line 3)

A human basically cannot into heart’s person, because heart is the part of the human body. This lyric tells us that the meaning is we have to let her comes to you so that you can start your life be better.

5.Running my hands through her hair (Here, There, and Everywhere – line 5)

As we know that “running’’ is an activity which can do by our foot and it’s very impossible if person can run by using hands. And it’s obviously hyperbole because the songwriter says that he runs his hands. Perhaps, this lyrics tells us that he is touching this woman through her hair.

6. Pool of tears (The long and the winding road – line 9)

This is truly hyperbole because we know that human can’t create a pool by only using their tears. This lyric refers to someone which is crying so loud just because of something or problem in her life so that it makes her/him can’t keep the tears fall down.

7. Vanish in the haze

The lyric represent about the songwriter is feeling down because of their problem.

He tries to ask for the helping to someone who can help him with any way so that he can get his better life back again.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

3.3 Simile

Simile is a comparison between the distinctly with the every things that we can see, as if we can conclude that we are like those things and it indicated by some connective, like, as, than or verb as resembles. Generally, simile is defined as a type of figurative language that used to explain the resemblance of two objects.

1.Attracts me like no other lover (Something – line 2)

In this sentence, the word “attracts’’ represent that the songwriter has fallen in love with a woman. In these lyrics, it is explained that the songwriter shows his feeling when he looks at the woman, he guesses that he can’t find or he doesn’t need another woman beside of her.

2. Now it looks as though they’re here to stay (Yesterday – line 2)

As we know that all the things which have happened in the past can’t happen for twice because time always moving forward. These lyrics explain that songwriter imagine something in the past, as if it’s happening right now.

3.Little darling, it feels like years since it’s been here

(Here comes the sun – line 2)

These lyrics represent that the songwriter has been waiting for very long time since when he is in that place.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

4. Nobody ever loved me like she does (Don’t let me down – line 3)

This is a comparison between someone who have loved him before with a woman who loves him at this moment. The songwriter tells us that there are no other people can love him beside this woman.

5. I’ve been working like a dog (A hard day’s night – line 1)

These are the comparison between the songwriter and a dog which working for someone. This lyric also tell us that the songwriter has to work hard every day only for someone’s need.

3.4 Metaphor

Metaphor is a statement that one thing we can see is something else. In literal sense, metaphor is not like simile because metaphor does not use “as or like’’ to create the comparison.

1. She was a day tripper (Day tripper – line 3)

Nobody can go travelling somewhere by only one day. In this lyrics, the writer can conclude that the songwriter tries to make his girlfriend happy and he tries with so many ways following her in every place because he wants to make her feel happy back.

2. Love was such an easy game to play (Yesterday – line 9)

This line is about a beautiful thing which is still imagined by the songwriter that he has so many beautiful moment especially for love in the past and also, he still believes that “yesterday’’ is the one of most beautiful moment in his life.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

3. Take a sad song and make it better (Hey jude – line 2)

We can’t only fixed the problem by only taking a song because if we only take or hear a sad song, it will only make our feelings worse. This lyric absolutely represent about our experience or all the bad things in our life so that we can be a better person in the future.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

4. CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

4.1 Conclusion

Figurative language is language that uses another word or the different literal interpretation to show the meaning by using their own expression. When a writer uses literal language, he or she shows or express the fact, by using their simply statement. After being analyzed or described about figurative language which was used in the beatles’ “one’’ album, we can conclude that the most of the beatles’ lyrics are still using the simple word and still pretty easy to understand so that, the writer can only find 4 types of figurative language such as: personification, hyperbole, simile, and metaphor.We might learn and understand how the songwriter tries to tell us about the story of the songs, and we can see that hyperbole, simile and personification are the equal for the most the beatles’ lyrics but hyperbole still the most lyric which written by the songwriter especially for this album.

4.2 Suggestion

Figurative language automatically has been the part of conversation or communicating to help conveying the message, ideas can be expressed by person’s mind. Therefore, the writer would like to suggest those are very interest literature can look at figurative language to be analyzed.

UNIVERSITAS SUMATERA UTARA

Beside of that, songs are very worth to be considered in learning English because, songs are the one of material in learning English. They can help people, especially

English student to know and understand the meaning of English words, because in songs we can find so many kinds of figurative language, the definitions, and how to interpret them. Besides, the readers can learn about the critical thinking through other words which has its own meaning from the word written. And the writer hopes that the readers can become interested in learning the kinds of figurative language and also this paper can be very useful or can enrich the readers knowledge in learning figurative in songs.

THE BEATLES

The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. With members John Lennon, Paul Mc.cartney, George Harrison, and Ringgo stars they became widely regarded as the foremost and the most influential music band in history. Rooted in skiffle beat and 1950s rock and roll, the Beatles later experimented with several musical styles, ranging from pop ballads and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock, often incorporating clasical elements and unconventional recording techniques in innovative ways. In 1963, their enormous popularity first emerged as "Beatlemania"; as the group's music grew in sophistication, led by primary songwriters Lennon and McCartney, the band became integral to pop music's evolution into an art form and to the development of the counterculture of the 1960s

The Beatles built their reputation playing clubs in Liverpool and Hamburg over a three-year period from 1960, with Stuart Sutcliffe serving as bass player. The core trio of Lennon, McCartney and Harrison, together since 1958, went through a succession of drummers, including Pete Best, before asking Starr to join them in 1962. Manager Brian Epstein moulded them into a professional act, and producer George Martin guided and developed their recordings, greatly expanding the group's popularity in the United Kingdom after their first hit, "Love Me Do", in late 1962. They acquired the nickname "the Fab Four" as Beatlemania grew in

Britain over the next year, and by early 1964 became international stars, leading the "British Invasion" of the United States pop market. From 1965 onwards, the Beatles produced increasingly innovative recordings, including the albums Rubber Soul (1965), Revolver (1966), Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967), The Beatles (also known as the "White Album", 1968) and Abbey Road (1969). After their break up in 1970, they each enjoyed success as solo artists. Lennon was shot and killed in December 1980, and Harrison died of lung cancer in November 2001. McCartney and Starr remain musically active.

The Beatles are the best-selling band in history, with estimated sales of over 800 million physical and digital albums worldwide. They have had more number-one albums on the British charts and sold more singles in the UK than any other act.

They are also the best selling music artist in United states, with 178 million certified units. In 2008, the group topped Billboard magazine's list of the all-time most successful artists; as of 2017, they hold the record for most number-one hits on the Hot 100 chart with twenty. They have received seven Grammy Awards, an Academy Awards for Best Original Song Score and fifteen Ivor Novello

Awards. The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988, and all four main members were inducted individually from 1994 to 2015. They were also collectively included in Time magazine's compilation of the twentieth century’s 100 most influential people

Standing in the dock at Southampton Trying to get to Holland or France The man in the mac said "You've got to go back" You know, they didn't even give us a chance Christ, you know it ain't easy You know how hard it can be The way things are going They're gonna to crucify me Finally made the plane into Paris Honeymooning down by the Seine Peter Brown called to say You can make it okay You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain Christ, you know it ain't easy You know how hard it can be The way things are going They're gonna to crucify me So from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton Talking in our beds for a week The news people said "Say, what you doing in bed?" I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace" Christ, you know it ain't easy You know how hard it can be The way things are going They're gonna to crucify me Saving up your money for a rainy day Giving all your clothes to charity

THE LONG AND THE WINDING ROAD The long and winding road That leads to your door Will never disappear I've seen that road before It always leads me here Lead me to you door

The wild and windy night That the rain washed away Has left a pool of tears Crying for the day Why leave me standing here Let me know the way

Many times I've been alone And many times I've cried Any way you'll never know The many ways I've tried

But still they lead me back To the long winding road You left me standing here A long long time ago Don't leave me waiting here Lead me to your door

But still they lead me back To the long winding road You left me standing here A long long time ago Don't keep me waiting here Lead me to your door Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

HERE, THERE, EVERYWHRE

To lead a better life, I need my love to be here

Here, making each day of the year Changing my life with a wave of her hand Nobody can deny that there’s something there

There, running my hands through her hair Both of us thinking how good it can be Someone is speaking but she doesn’t know he’s there

I want her everywhere And if she’s beside me I know I need never care But to love her is to meet her everywhere Knowing that love is to share Each one believing that love never dies Watching her eyes and hoping I’m always there

To be there and everywhere Here, there and everywhwerer Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been Lives in a dream Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in
